The MIMO Coordinator’s role spans the life of a lease from moving a newly approved applicant into a home to renewing the lease agreement prior to expiration, to coordinating the move-out and subsequent re-lease of the property. The MIMO Coordinator must exude masterful time management skills, communication, and empathy in response to each of the various life cycles of a lease while maintaining rigid adherence to company and Landlord goals and policies with regard to each property. The MIMO Coordinator must ensure that all pre move-in requirements are met prior to a new tenant taking possession of a home, including collection of funds, ensuring utilities are established, and making sure all lease documents have been drafted and signed where necessary. As the lease expiration approaches the MIMO Coordinator will work with the residents and the Landlord to complete the semi-annual safety and maintenance walk-through and to ensure the lease renewal is achieved at an optimal rate while avoiding unnecessary vacancy and ensuring that contracts are updated as appropriate to ensure compliance guidelines are met or exceeded. Upon receiving notice of intent to vacate by one of our residents our MIMO Coordinator will work to ensure that all keys are returned, the home is inspected promptly, and the tenant’s security deposit is dispositioned quickly taking care to apply charges to the deposit as appropriate and warranted by a thorough review of move-in and move-out photos. The MIMO Coordinator directly affects both the quality and consistency of residents’ experience in their interaction with Access, and is responsible for:
• Reviewing approval guidelines for applicants and drafting the necessary lease contracts
• Working with applicants to execute all required lease contracts prior to taking possession
• Collection of all necessary funds prior to an applicant receiving possession of the home
• Ensuring that utilities are established in the applicant’s name prior to move-in
• Contacting current tenants 90 days prior to lease expiration to gauge intent
• Coordination of the semi-annual safety and maintenance walk-through
• Negotiating and drafting renewal contracts and ensuring timely execution of the documents
• Coordinating the move-out process with outgoing tenants
• Ensuring homes are inspected promptly after tenants vacate
• Evaluating estimates for repairs and appropriately identifying responsibility for cost

The Application Underwriter works with applicants gathering necessary information, organizing supporting documentation, and verifying supplied information. The application underwriter carries the burden of responsibility for quickly and effectively analyzing an application, or often multiple competing applications, to find the strongest one to fill a vacant rental unit. The Application Underwriter has discretion to determine essential risk mitigation strategies and, when necessary, demand increased rents, deposits, or co-signers to “shore-up” an application. When multiple strong applications are received the Application Underwriter is expected to research available inventory and suggest comparable Access inventory to be sure that all qualified applicants have the greatest chance of becoming a resident in one of Access’ rental homes. The Applicant Underwriter directly affects both the quality and consistency of Access’ residents, and is responsible for:
• Working with Applicants to gather necessary documentation
• Pulling and analyzing credit checks with major credit bureaus and criminal backgroud reports
• Comfort and Confidence in using Access unique scoring metrics and software to produce reliable screening results
• Negotiating increased rents and deposits when necessary
• Knowledge of availble inventory to identify cross-selling opportunities in the event of multiple applicants
• Escalation of properties which reach critical vacancy rate and implementing emergency marketing systems to prevent abnormal vacancy times
