AFI, LLC

Daily Operations include: 
responding to online guest cards/leads, answering phone calls. scheduling appointments/showings, touring. updating vacancy listings, advertising outlets etc. (Craigslist), reaching out to tenants who are late to collect rent. reaching out to applicants, signing leases, working and delegating maintenance tasks to your staff, ordering supplies from your vendors needed to complete apartment turns, scheduling vendors. cleaning/maintaining upkeep of property, trash pickup. processing invoices. 
The company has a great formula for cleaning up and turning around properties by bringing in great tenants and great managers who uphold their high standards. If you put a lot of work in to it in the beginning, you will reap the benefits down the line. Better overall tenants who understand the rules= better life for you, There are great bonuses you can receive for achieving goals. There are days where there is a lot going on and there are days where there is not. But, there is always stuff to do. 

The hardest part of the job is the work/life balance. Managers must live on site. There is a huge plus in that you get free rent, but you do get the feeling sometimes that you are literally stuck at work 24/7. Sometimes you need to get out, but you always take a risk being that you are always on call. Most common emergency in my case being leaks. It's important to have a plan of action and in most cases, the extent of your emergency may be just making a few phone calls. You must carry the work cell phone on you at all times. But, there is always the dread in the back of your mind when you hear the phone go off after hours. You may have tenants texting you and calling you and it is important for them to understand it is not a personal cell. 

Depending on where you go, you do have a lot of freedom. Run a good property, hit your numbers and you really don't have to see or deal with upper management within the company (not that they are bad people) but it's nice to not have a lot of pressure being come down on you, but they will always be a phone call away if you need them for help.

It can be a very rewarding job. you are the face of your property, making tenants happy, renovating and remodeling apartments, hitting and exceeding your number expectations, freedom to experiment and upgrade and add improvements to your property pending a budget of course. There is a great sense of accomplishment the longer you have been here, knowing how far the property came. Follow the company's goals and values and you are on your way to success.

I have had many jobs over the years, but AFI is a phenomenal organization when you are ready for a career! The tools and assets needed for almost any circumstance are always available and my peers all have excellent industry experience.  Even when unexpected event occur on the property, a simple phone call to the support staff at the home office gets immediate results.
Make no mistake, you will work hard at AFI and the expectation are always high, but you will never be tasked with unreasonable requests and the compensation for a job well done are more than generous.
I have recommended this organization to multiple people looking to advance in the multi-family housing industry.

Pros (character limit below) AFI is always improving and innovating, so fresh ideas are always welcome.  This flexibility and drive for perfection means AFI will soon be the industry leader 

Cons (character limit below) The business model creates a physical distance between you and your higher management team.  If you are the kind of individual that need consistent oversight and direction, this is not the career path for you.

I would give zero stars if I could. My experience working for this property management company has been an absolute nightmare. As a single mother of three, I relocated for a position they promised would be stable and secure. I was told if I did not like the property I could transfer in a few months. 

Once I arrived, I quickly realized they had misled me about the job. Not only were the responsibilities completely different than what was discussed, but they also left me with no support. Eventually they notified me that they ended the contract with the owner and in 2 days I would no longer have a job or a home as I lived on the property I worked at. I was stranded, in a new city, with three children to care for, and no way to make ends meet.

The lack of communication and accountability from this company is appalling. They took advantage of my trust and uprooted my family’s life for their own benefit. I was counting on this job as our livelihood, but they left us in a dire situation. 

I would never recommend working for this company. If you value honesty, integrity, and your well-being, stay far away.

What is the best part of working at the company?
My hiring experience with AFI was smooth, well-structured, and communicative. The team kept me informed throughout each step, and I felt supported and valued as a candidate. I'm excited to begin this next chapter with the company.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part was the uncertainty around timelines and final details during the onboarding process, but the team was responsive and worked to provide clarity when needed.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The culture at AFI feels welcoming and team driven. Everyone I've interacted with has been helpful and communicative, which creates a supportive environment, especially during onboarding. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
As I begin my journey with AFI, a typical day involves learning operations, connecting with the team, and gaining hand-on experience with property management processes. Each day brings new opportunities to learn and grow.

AFI is a great place to work with good people. The Leadership Team is good at encouraging everyone to put forth their best effort, and not just be content to remain "static", but rather to grow and constantly work to improve efficiency and work processes for the better. 

If you have a good attitude and good work ethic, with the ability to be flexible, then you will do very well here.

The hardest part of my job is that vendor invoice entry is dependent on property managers, so if they do not submit invoices into the system, the invoices are not available to be paid, and then accounting has to deal with Missing Invoices and "holds" by vendors. 

One of the most enjoyable things about my job is helping people get what they need (vendor payments, CAPEX repair payments, tenant refund deposits, etc.) I also enjoy working with and having contact with a wide variety of people from vendors to owners to property managers to co-workers.

As a new hire I can't really assess some of the categories such as job work/life balance, compensation/benefits and job security/advancement.

However, AFI takes a backseat to no one in regards to professionalism, transparency, and a team atmosphere pulling for each other's success.  The training materials, resources and program is amazing compared to anything else I have seen. 

The Company Goals, Vision and Values isn't just lip service.  The leadership is passionate about the multifamily industry and that filters top down.  

From day one I have been supported and made to feel at home , every person that has been part of my training offers thier help to make me a successful manager with AFI. My "handler" Colin has been absolutely tremendous in his endeavors to help and answer all of my questions; making me feel relaxed and confident in my training and carreer going forward. I hope to be here and giving retirement reviewsfar in the future.

Thank you AFI

A day in the life of a Property Manager is ever changing. Your plans may fly out the window, but it is what you make of your day that counts. With AFI as my first Property Management experience, I was blessed to have a great support group and a very knowledgeable experienced trainer. When you take over a property, YOU are the one responsible for making it a place worth working at. AFI provides the guidelines, support, and resources you need to be successful at running your designated property. The manager makes the environment with who they hire, planning and prioritizing property needs, and then executing tasks to bring the property to a better standard. I have learned to always ask questions, share my experiences with others for feedback, and to keep a keen eye for things that can be improved. Work hard, do what you know you can do, ask for help on the rest, then enjoy the benefits of your labor.

AFI is a very good company to work for. They are constantly growing and in a few years will be a major player in the market if they are not already. I worked for AFI for a bit and then took a break to work for a different company and then came back. Based off that experience, I can say that AFI is definitely the company you want to work for if you want to get into this industry. The CEO and President are very down to earth and are some of the smartest guys in the industry. They know what they are doing and they do it extremely well. Managers get paid a decent salary although there is some room for improvement in that area. The bonus is that you do not have to pay any rent while working for AFI. You will learn a great deal working with AFI. Their training program is excellent and there are manager mentors that you can always lean on to help you when you are at your own property. If you are willing to work hard and take pride in what you do then you will be successful. They promote from within so there is always potential to climb the ladder of success.

Working with AFI is extremely rewarding as a first-time property manager - they truly give their new hires the tools they need to succeed, whether it's your first day on the job or you've been with them for years. The training process is very informative and you have an entire crew of knowledgeable, energetic staff to help you with every step. When you read about their core values - know that they are 100% TRUE. 

AFI has cultivated a positive work environment across multiple states that gives every single employee a true sense of ownership and purpose in their daily work. I firmly believe that AFI cares about their employees - high performing or not. I struggled immensely with my first property and they immediately offered assistance, eventually relocating me to a better fitting location. Working in housing can be tough for anyone, but I am so grateful that my experiences here have been nothing but excellent! 

If you are considering to work for, or with, AFI, LLC., you will be committing to a wonderful work environment, with successful, collaborative,  and effective leadership - although they’d never admit it, because they’re too humble - they WILL lead you to success with open ears, open perspectives, and balance! I am committed, and excited, to having a long, and prosperous career with AFI! Their core values are unmatched, their values and mission are ACCURATE! If you are hesitant, don’t be! I’d argue that working here is better than any “larger” company I’ve ever worked for, and to understand that better, I’ve been in this industry for over 14 years. I cannot speak highly enough of the people, culture, company, leaders, and TEAMS!
