ABOUT THE ROLE

POAH Communities is seeking a qualified individual to serve as Assistant Property Manager. Olympia Square Apartments is a 44-unit, 100% Section 8, fully occupied senior property in Lynn, MA - just north of Boston. Formerly known as the Sweetser Block, the building was constructed in 1874 and originally housed a shoe manufacturing operation. The property was converted to apartments during the early 1980s, and has two ground-floor commercial tenants. With its convenient location in the center of downtown Lynn and just a short walk from an MBTA commuter-rail station, Olympia Square has always enjoyed high levels of occupancy but in recent years it suffered from deferred maintenance and the previous owner sought a preservation-minded buyer with the capacity to recapitalize it.
