Thank GOODNESS #RPMCareersWeek ends tomorrow...I am DONE for this year! NOT! #ThoughtLeadershipThursday 🎉 As RPMCareers Week, sponsored by the National Apartment Association, comes to a close, let's remember: celebrating our teams shouldn't be confined to just one week. 🌟 Every day is an opportunity to recognize and appreciate the hard work, dedication, and achievements of our multifamily teams! 👏 Regional Property Managers, as you conduct your on-site visits, take a moment each week to acknowledge the outstanding efforts of your teams. Whether it's hitting milestones, achieving goals, or making progress, let them know their work is valued and recognized. And remember, every member of the on-site property team contributes to success! 👔 C-Suite leaders, it's time to step out from behind desks and screens and into the field. Make site visits not just a scheduled event, but a spontaneous gesture of gratitude and support. Your presence and approachability speak volumes about your commitment to the teams driving your organization forward. 📱 Community Managers, keep the #RPMCareersJourney alive! Share the stories of your team's hard work and dedication on social media. From work-in-progress snapshots to community events, let your online presence reflect the passion and dedication of your team members. Just remember to adhere to company social media policies! 🚀 To all on-site team members—Leasing Consultants, Assistant Community Managers, Groundskeepers, Housekeepers, Service Technicians, and Service Managers—keep striving for growth and development in your multifamily careers. Whether it's honing skills or exploring new opportunities, the sky's the limit! 💼 Don't forget to tap into your local apartment associations for career development resources, industry designation programs, and networking opportunities. Building your professional network and skills within your local community can open doors to endless possibilities. 🤝 And let's not overlook our multifamily supplier partners! Take the time to drop by properties with a gesture of appreciation—whether it's donuts or other perks. Strengthening these partnerships fosters a sense of collaboration and mutual respect. Let's keep the spirit of RPMCareers alive all year long, championing our teams and pushing the boundaries of success in the multifamily industry! 🌟 #RPMCareers #MultifamilyLeadership

Residential property management isn't just a career for me; it's a profound journey that has enriched my life in countless ways. Six years ago, like many, I stumbled into this industry, unaware of the transformative impact it would have on me. Through it, I've discovered a sense of purpose unlike any other. Every day, I have the privilege of assisting people in making one of the most significant decisions of their lives: finding their home. Witnessing the joy on their faces as they settle into their new space, embark on new chapters, whether it's job promotions, welcoming babies, or adopting puppies, fills my heart with immense satisfaction. It's these moments that remind me why I do what I do—because it's more than just a job; it's a calling. As a Latina in the industry, I've been given a platform to raise my voice and effect change. From starting out in leasing to ascending to the role of Regional Manager in a remarkably short time, I've been supported every step of the way by NM Residential Their belief in me has been a source of motivation and gratitude. Moreover, my career has allowed me to connect with fellow industry professionals, sharing stories, experiences, and insights. Serving as a board member for Latinas In Property Management has given me the opportunity to give back and support other Latinas on their journey. But perhaps what I cherish most about my career is the sense of community and belonging we share. Within the residential property management family, we uplift and support each other, celebrating successes and weathering challenges together. It's this camaraderie that makes every day feel like coming home. In essence, residential property management isn't just a job; it's a passion—a testament to the profound impact we can have on others' lives and the bonds we forge along the way. #RPMCareer #RPMCareerWeek RPM Careers

Retaining skilled and dedicated staff is one of our biggest challenges in property management 🏘. High turnover rates lead to increased costs, reduced efficiency, and a negative impact on resident satisfaction. When someone new joins our industry, they often bring infectious positivity, warmth, and drive. However, these qualities can sometimes diminish over time due to the many challenges and emotional ups and downs that come with the job. Many of these potential industry all-stars 🌟end up taking their talents to another industry, possibly due to being with the wrong management company or leader. It's disheartening that some don't get to experience how special multifamily truly is... but I understand 😔 To my network, what are some words of wisdom and encouragement you would provide to the new folks in our industry? 💡🌱 Tag someone in the comments who has been in multifamily for less than 2 years so we can rally and support them on their journey! 🙌
