Acquisitions Operations Market Analyst

About the Role

We’re looking for a Real Estate Acquisitions Operations and Market Analyst to join our growing team. This role bridges operations, market intelligence, and technology to strengthen our acquisitions platform. You’ll build tools and workflows that make our team more efficient, while also digging into market data to help guide investment decisions.

Operations & Transaction Support

Maintain acquisitions databases, playbooks, CRM systems, and reporting dashboards to provide visibility to senior leadership. Assist with due diligence management, including data requests, third‑party reports, and compliance checklists. Work with internal teams (legal, asset management, property operations, construction, capital raising, etc.) and external stakeholders (brokers, lenders, sellers) to keep deals on track.

Workflow & Tools Development

Create and improve acquisitions workflows to streamline sourcing, underwriting, due diligence, and closing. Build repeatable systems to ensure acquisitions processes are scalable and consistent. Build custom tools and automations (using Google Apps Script, SQL, AI‑powered coding tools) to increase efficiency. Build dashboards and reporting systems to centralize data such as from MLS, CRM, and financial models.

Market Research & Analysis

Conduct ongoing research on multifamily markets, submarkets, and asset classes, with a focus on both small‑unit and mid‑market opportunities. Compile and analyze data from MLS, CoStar, and public sources to identify trends in rents, occupancy, cap rates, and transaction activity. Prepare market presentations, heat maps, and research memos to inform investment committee discussions.

Financial & Strategic Support

Partner with acquisitions associates and analysts to refine underwriting assumptions with market‑driven data. Monitor and track capital flows, demographic shifts, and regulatory changes that may impact investment strategies. Develop periodic reporting for investors, highlighting acquisitions pipeline, closed transactions, and market outlook.
