SVP, Revenue & Asset Management
The SVP, Revenue & Asset Management is the economic performance owner of Hillpointe’s multifamily portfolio. This role holds full responsibility for pricing strategy, lease-up pricing and concessions strategy, budgeting, forecasting, tax strategy, operating-phase capital planning, and financial performance across Hillpointe’s multifamily portfolio.
This role assumes economic leadership of each asset upon transition from development to pre-leasing and operations. While construction budgeting and development draw management remain under the purview of the Development team, this leader owns the financial performance of each asset from pre-leasing through stabilization and ongoing operations. From that point forward, this leader owns asset-level economic outcomes, including lease-up and stabilization economics, rent strategy, renewal pricing, concession posture, forward cash flow forecasting, real estate tax appeal oversight, operating reserve management, and distribution recommendations.
Investor reporting and lender covenant management remain under the purview of the CFO and Debt Capital Markets team; this role provides operating projections, performance inputs, and valuation assumptions to support those processes.
The mandate for the role is to drive portfolio-level revenue growth and disciplined operating expense control across the portfolio, with an ultimate focus on increasing asset value and preparing assets for monetization events.
