Opportunity

L+M Companies is seeking a motivated, detail-oriented Vice President to support investment strategy, fund-side and acquisition rehab origination and selected asset management initiatives across L+M’s West Coast portfolio. 

This role will spend significant time originating and screening new multifamily investment opportunities for LMFM’s fund vehicles, including identifying deals that may be well-suited for 4% LIHTC executions, while also helping asset manage select West Coast assets and supporting senior leadership on market strategy.

Responsibilities

• Originate and screen multifamily investment opportunities nationally for LMFM’s fund vehicles, with a strong focus on the West Coast and other target growth markets.
• Evaluate whether potential acquisitions are suitable for conventional equity, public-private partnership, or 4% LIHTC execution strategies.
• Support a high volume of fund-side origination by tracking pipeline activity, assessing market fit, and prioritizing opportunities for senior leadership review.
• Underwrite prospective investments, including financial modeling, market analysis, rent and expense benchmarking, return sensitivities, and capital structure review.
• Help asset manage select L+M West Coast portfolio assets, including monitoring performance against business plans, supporting reporting, and coordinating with asset management and property teams.
• Build and maintain relationships with brokers, sellers, developers, lenders, public agency counterparts, and other market participants.
• Prepare investment committee materials, pipeline updates, asset-level summaries, and market research for senior leadership.
• Coordinate with acquisitions, asset management, legal, finance, and capital formation teams to support deal execution, portfolio oversight, and investor-facing materials as needed.

Qualifications

• 8–10 years of experience in multifamily acquisitions, real estate private equity, investment management, asset management, investment banking, or a related field.
• Strong financial modeling, underwriting, and analytical skills, with experience evaluating multifamily investment opportunities and business plans.
• Familiarity with 4% LIHTC executions, tax-exempt bonds, public-private partnerships, HUD/agency debt, and affordable or workforce housing investment structures.
• Ability to manage a high volume of origination activity while maintaining discipline around screening, prioritization, and follow-through.
• Experience with asset management, portfolio monitoring, investor reporting, or execution of value-add/business plan strategies preferred.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to summarize deal opportunities, portfolio performance, and market themes for senior stakeholders.
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, proactive, and comfortable working across acquisitions, asset management, finance, legal, and capital formation teams.
• Travel required. This is a remote position; West Coast candidates are strongly preferred, though other strong candidates will be considered.
