To Whom It May Concern:
Thank you for considering me for the current and / or future positions you may have available. I have 15 yrs of Property Management experience and feel that I was trained by some of the best in the industry. I hope to continue my education in the industry and train others along the way.
I have a mastered a professional skill set and possess a level of integrity to include working as a part of a team that has proven a profitable margin on all the assets I have managed. I enjoy the creative and marketing experiences that are a part of community management. Supporting, training and tag teaming with an inside staff is always enjoyable for me with a creative twist that enhances the goal of “ALL” qualified prospects becoming long term residents
I have had some great experiences in my tenure to include exterior re-habs, major plumbing issues and repairs, trouble shooting with some of the best maintenance techs, working with minimum operation budgets and achieving maximum revenues.
I also have Affordable Housing experience with successful govt. reporting status.
Thank you again for your time and I look forward to meeting with you.
Sincerely,
Susan D. Archer
