General Manager - CSG


We're building the largest portfolio of affordable housing in the heart of America. We need you to make it happen.


About SFR3
SFR3 is a tech-enabled real estate investment fund acquiring over $2.5B in single-family homes by 2026. We specialize in buying and renovating distressed homes in overlooked neighborhoods, scaling efficiently across dozens of midsized metros. In just four years, we’ve grown to 10,000+ homes across two dozen markets—and we’re just getting started.


Your Mandate

As General Manager, you’re not just managing a market—you’re running a business. Covering your market(s) (typically one, occasionally two), you’ll oversee the entire investment lifecycle from renovation through turn, ensuring every dollar delivers outsized yield. This is a hands-on, in-market role: roughly 75% of your time is spent in the field—scoping homes, performing QCs, and leading training and audits—with the remaining 25% behind a desk on reporting, coordination, and admin work.

You are the fund’s eyes and ears in your market(s). You’ll personally assess and scope homes, solve construction and operational problems in real-time, and drive performance across cost, quality, and speed. You’ll be trusted to make the financial calls, build the right teams, and keep your market(s) lean and profitable.

  • Experience with residential property management, maintenance operations and occupied-home service delivery is strongly preferred
  • Strong financial and business acumen, with the ability to make practical cost/quality/speed and repair-vs.-replace decisions
  • Proven ability to lead, motivate, and hold accountable employees, contractors, and vendor partners
