Dear Hiring Professional:
Your advertisement for Real Estate Asset Manager within your Manhattan portfolio calls for the abilities that I have gained an intimate knowledge of over the past 5 years. My Real Estate and Facilities Management experience, coupled with team leading skills, proven client satisfaction and an ability to easily adapt in a variety of environments have led to consistent success in the productivity for both the Buildings and the teams I have been involved with during this time, as summarized below:
oReal Estate: 5 years management, leasing experience for total of 8 residential communities and 1.3 million ft2 of commercial office space. Proficiency in both private and Government real estate; in house and third party management.
oClient Relationships: Named in 2015-2016 State of CT Agency review for above-mentioned commercial Facilities, by primary tenant contact overseeing approximately 1,000 individuals, as one of best Property Managers he has worked with during his career.
oSupervisory Skills and Training: Commercial Division’s software administrator (Impak) and Division employee trainer (Impak, Timberscan); manage and oversee multiple Facilities Engineering and Maintenance teams.
oValue Enhancement: Well-versed in Capital Improvements, including complete renovation and population of 600,000 ft2 Class A Facility. Unique understanding of Building Systems, from construction to commissioning and O&M.
Although my experience has been primarily as an Assistant Property Manager, I believe my abilities as noted above are both highly valuable and transferable to the position.
I look forward to a personal meeting in which we can further discuss details of my business experience.
Thank you for your consideration.
Yours truly,
Sara Branciforte
