About The Position

The Make Ready Specialist ensures vacant apartment homes meet Greystar’s quality standards for re-leasing by completing technical and mechanical work needed to turn units into market-ready condition on time. The role follows the community’s make-ready checklist and occupancy standards, completes repairs and improvements, and supports upkeep of grounds, common areas, and amenities. It also requires timely maintenance documentation, compliance with safety and risk-management policies, and respectful, efficient service to residents and others.

The position involves indoor and outdoor work in all weather conditions, physical activities such as climbing ladders and working in confined areas, and may require travel to other properties or training and business meetings. The work schedule is flexible and includes taking call during evenings, weekends, and holidays.

Requirements

• Ability to stand, walk, and/or sit for extended periods.
• Ability to bend, stoop, climb ladders, reach, carry objects, and crawl in confined areas.
• Ability to work indoors and outdoors in all weather conditions.

• Complete repairs and improvements to apartment homes before resident move-in, following the community’s make-ready checklist.
• Caulk and seal areas around windows, sinks, toilets, bathtubs, and showers as needed.
• Inspect sheetrock for damage and repair or replace it as needed.
• Perform touch-up painting in vacant and occupied units as directed by the Service Supervisor or Community Manager.
• Help maintain grounds, common areas, and amenities by picking up trash and debris, pressure-washing breezeways and pool areas, performing general cleaning, and painting curbs and signage as needed.
• Support cost-cutting and expense-control programs by repairing rather than replacing parts when possible, using materials and supplies carefully, and using tools and equipment correctly.
• Complete make-ready checklists and other required maintenance documentation promptly.
• Follow safety and risk-management policies, participate in routine safety meetings, complete required OSHA and other safety training, and report accidents and incidents promptly and accurately.
• Provide respectful customer service, answer resident questions, respond sensitively to maintenance complaints, and complete assigned work orders efficiently and urgently.
