Job description

Leasing Assistant
ABOUT US
POAH Communities is a mission-driven organization managing over 13,000 affordable housing apartments. As part of the Preservation of Affordable Housing, Inc. family, our team of 500+ professionals believes that quality housing management goes beyond providing safe, comfortable homes; it's about creating environments where residents can thrive. Our commitment to excellence in affordable housing management serves as a foundation for resident success and community empowerment.
See our employees in action and how you can contribute to the mission!
ABOUT THE ROLE
POAH Communities is seeking an individual to serve as Leasing Assistant. This individual will report to the Property Manager. The Heritage Village complex in North Kingstown has provided affordable housing for low-income families and seniors since it was built in 1979. North Kingstown is a desirable Rhode Island community with a very limited supply of affordable rental homes and there was significant concern about the possible loss of affordability of the 204 homes as the development's mortgage reached maturity.
Heritage Village includes three buildings for seniors and six for families. The sites are separated by a large winding driveway as well as handsomely landscaped grounds. All of the apartments have Section 8 rental assistance which allows each household to predictably pay 30% of its income for rent because the rental subsidies are 'project-based' meaning they accompany the property rather than a current resident guaranteeing the subsidy's availability for future households.
