Position Summary

Supports the Chief Strategy Officer in two core mandates:

• Deal/Site Evaluation & Revenue Underwriting Support - partner closely with Development to evaluate sites already selected by our developers, producing rigorous market studies that pressure-test unit mix, achievable rents/premiums, pricing ladders, absorption, and revenue growth factors used in underwriting.

• Market Surveillance & Portfolio Monitoring - continuously monitor national multifamily trends and maintain NRP market dashboards to flag risks/opportunities and to inform forward-looking revenue assumptions across the portfolio.

• The role blends hands-on analysis with clear executive communication, leveraging large datasets (Yardi Matrix, CoStar, RealPage, and other sources) and required AI-enabled workflows to translate data into decisions.

Key Responsibilities

• Build market study packages for developer-selected sites: submarket definition, demand drivers, household formation, income bands, rent-to-income tests, and affordability stress.

• Construct rent comp sets and lease-up absorption assumptions.

• Quantify and timeline competitive pipeline; run scenarios on deliveries, concessions, and absorption slowdowns.

• Review annual/quarterly revenue growth factors (market rent, concessions, economic occupancy, other income) and document rationale.

• Update underwriting input tabs to reflect approved assumptions.

• Maintain a national market watch: rents, occupancy, absorption, supply risk, and macro indicators; publish monthly highlights and early-warning flags.

• Track supply within target markets and forecast absorption

• Track and explain variance between pro forma assumptions and observed market performance.

• Source, clean, and integrate large datasets from Yardi Matrix, CoStar, RealPage; (property, submarket, pipeline).

• Advanced Excel modeling

• Own hands-on setup, configuration, and ongoing maintenance of AI assistants/agents (Microsoft Copilot, Claude, and similar) to accelerate market research, comp collection, underwriting support, and executive-ready narrative drafting.

• Create and maintain repeatable prompt templates and structured workflows (inputs, assumptions, citations/traceability, and output formats) so analyses are consistent, auditable, and easy to refresh.

• Develop and maintain a library of reusable artifacts (prompt packs, checklists, standard tables/charts, and "definition of done" quality gates) for market studies, comps, and monthly market-watch reporting.

• Implement guardrails for responsible use (data sensitivity rules, hallucination checks, source verification, and version control of assumptions) and enforce validation standards before outputs are used in underwriting or executive materials.

• Deliver automation for high-friction tasks (data cleaning, consolidation, variance explanations, and dashboard commentary) using AI-assisted scripting and productivity tooling.

• Partner with Development on weekly pipeline reviews; align market conclusions with site timelines.

• Coordinate with Acquisitions/Underwriting to ensure revenue inputs are current and well-supported.

• Support Capital Markets/IR with concise market narratives, benchmarks, and chart-ready outputs.

• Deliver executive-ready presentations with clear recommendations and risks.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's in Finance, Economics, Real Estate, or related field.

• 2-4 years in multifamily real estate market analysis; exposure to both market-rate and workforce segments.

• Advanced Excel and financial modeling.

• Proficiency with PowerPoint.

• Experience with Yardi Matrix, CoStar, RealPage.

• Hands-on experience using AI tools and agentic workflows-specifically Microsoft Copilot and Claude (or equivalent)-including agent setup/maintenance, prompt/workflow design, and rigorous output QA/validation for research and repeatable analysis.

• Clear, concise communicator with executive presence.

• Highly detail-oriented; organized; comfortable in a fast-paced environment with multiple deadlines.

• Curious, rigorous, and solutions-oriented.

Work Environment & Requirements

• Hybrid; minimum four days/week in our Cleveland corporate office.
