Asset Management Budget Analyst

NexMetro is an innovative real estate developer that is revolutionizing how consumers think about housing. We are seeking an Asset Management Budget Analyst responsible for budgetary planning and support at the property level of NexMetro’s build-to-rent portfolio.

NexMetro Communities is one of the nation’s largest single-family rental community developers, specializing in building communities for consumers seeking a place that rents like an apartment but lives like a single-family home. NexMetro develops luxury leased communities marketed under the name Avilla Homes. Avilla neighborhoods combine the benefits of luxury residential single-family living with the convenience, flexibility, and professional on-site management of a Class A apartment community. The result is a new residential hybrid housing option—detached, single-story homes in prime suburban locations that are highly differentiated from traditional rental products. Founded in 2012 and a pioneer in the space, NexMetro has invested more than $2 billion in projects completed or under construction, comprising more than 50 neighborhoods spanning Sunbelt locales from Arizona to Florida. We are an entrepreneurial company with a strong, passionate company culture, and we are seeking team members with a similar mindset.
