Yesterday i was greeted around 10am by a crying girl no older than the age of 23 entering the office saying she saw the 3 day notice on her door but didnt have the money to pay the balance. This is an extremely tough process but you need to separate […]

This last week I had my last team meeting with everybody.  Since I only have a few more days on site, this was my last team meeting and we had a home made breakfast, which was a very good way to start the day.

I have been assigned the tasks of getting a food truck in for our residents.  I went with pretzel sandwiches, which were a very bid hit.  This can be directly tied to our resident retention program in the way that it makes our community enjoyable to live in, which will […]

Today is the day of my community event for my property. I created the community event and we went with root beer floats! Thus far, all I’ve done today is whip up root beer floats for everyone and it’s going great!

My weekly assignment is to boost our company’s presence on social media. I chose to increase the amount of likes we get on Facebook. It has been pretty stressful becoming the leader of the facebook group and working on getting it Bigos approved. A project like this would be much […]

Today, I joined the property manager of the property that I am currently at to court. We had three evictions to go through. We sat through a bunch of other cases, some taking 30 seconds and some taking 15 minutes. Nothing too crazy happened, but it was a good experience […]
