What happens if the role you need is not listed on the site?
Send it anyway. Many property jobs combine duties in ways no directory captures, such as a manager who also handles construction coordination, or an accountant who supports association boards. We read the actual work, compare it with the families we cover and tell you whether a direct search is a sensible way to fill it.
Unlisted roles are often hybrids created by growth. An owner adds buildings and asks the site manager to oversee a second property. A developer needs someone to bridge construction handover and stabilized operations. The title may be new, but the experience usually exists somewhere in the market, and finding it starts with a clear description of the duties.
We will ask which parts of the job are essential and which could be trained. That distinction shapes the search more than the title does. A candidate with three of four core skills and strong judgment may serve you better than one who matches every line but has never worked in a comparable setting.
If the role sits outside real estate operations, or the market for it is broad enough that posting will work, we will say so rather than take on a search that will not add value.
How should you describe a role that combines several jobs?
List each part of the work with a rough share of the week, mark which parts are essential on day one and which can be learned, and explain why the role was combined. That description lets us find people who carry the critical part and judge whether they can grow into the remainder.
Combined roles often reflect a budget limit or a transition. Saying so is fine. Candidates respond better to an honest explanation, such as a second property being added next year, than to a long title that seems to hide an impossible workload.
If the combination proves too broad for the market, we will suggest how to split or support it, based on what candidates tell us during outreach.

Describe the mandate

We will not invent a specialization to accept every assignment. If the opening belongs outside our focus, we will say so.

Ask for the overviewKnow the role you need to fill?
Send Us Your Open RoleWhat should you ask before choosing a recruiting firm?
Will you tell us if the role is not a good fit for a search?
Yes. If posting, an internal promotion or interim cover looks like the better option, we explain why on the first call.
Can a new hybrid role still have a reasonable pool?
Often it can. The combined title may be new while each part of the work is common. We look for people who have done the parts that matter most.
When do we pay the recruiting fee?
No upfront fee. You pay only if you hire under the standard contingency agreement. The signed agreement sets the terms; read the fee page before authorizing the search.
How long does it take to see a short list?
The scope of the job, candidate availability and your interview decisions affect the search. We explain the market response and agree next steps rather than promise a numeric deadline.
What if our chosen candidate gets a counteroffer?
We ask about the reasons for a move before an introduction. You still need a clear offer and an honest account of the job; an increase in pay alone may not resolve why someone considered leaving.
What are the replacement terms?
We offer a candidate replacement guarantee on standard search agreements. The applicable period and exact terms are set out in the signed client recruiting agreement.
What do you not do?
We do not sell job-board reposting or send an unqualified resume stack. Standard permanent search is not hourly consulting or a retained assignment. Different engagements require agreed terms.
Tell us the role. We go find the person.
No upfront fee. You pay only if you hire.
Our process
What do you get from The Six-Step Search?
Real Estate Headhunters begins with the decisions behind your vacancy, not an advert. You get a clear brief, a mapped candidate pool and evidence from direct conversations. We help you distinguish an interested person from a qualified fit, then support interviews and the decision without promising a completion date.

Search Calibration
A brief that settles the operating problem, reporting line, location, compensation and who can approve the hire.
- 2
Market Mapping
A view of relevant working backgrounds, asset types and experience rather than a search based only on titles.
- 3
Professional Contact Intelligence
Direct ways to approach relevant people respectfully, without relying on applications or exposing a confidential vacancy.
- 4
Persistent Personalized Outreach
A conversation about your actual role, with follow-up that establishes whether a move is worth discussing.

Evidence about responsibilities, relevant results, systems and the practical reasons someone would accept the move.
- 6
Candidate Intelligence and Process Support
A short list with context for interviews, objections and decisions, not a stack of unexplained resumes.
CAM has different meanings. NAA CAM is the Certified Apartment Manager credential. The Florida community association manager license is a separate license, cited here as an example of state licensing. In commercial budgets, CAM means common area maintenance. We check the credential or license relevant to the opening, where the state requires it.
