Background

About Raina Gary

I am a Community Manager at Cortland, a leading multifamily real estate company that owns and operates more than apartment homes across the US. I have been with Cortland since 2017, starting as an Assistant Community Manager and advancing to my current role in 2021. In my role, I oversee the daily operations and performance of a 312-unit apartment complex in the Houston area, ensuring high occupancy rates, tenant satisfaction, and property maintenance. I manage a team of 10 staff members, including leasing agents, maintenance technicians, and vendors, and provide them with guidance, training, and feedback. I also handle rent collections, budgeting, reporting, and compliance with state and federal laws governing rental properties. With over ten years of experience in the apartment property management industry, I have developed strong skills in income properties, working with tenants, and apartments. I have a proven track record of increasing revenue, reducing expenses, and improving customer service. I am passionate about creating a sense of community and belonging among the residents and staff, and I strive to uphold the values and standards of Cortland. I am always looking for new ways to enhance the living experience of our tenants, such as organizing events, providing amenities, and soliciting feedback. I am also committed to learning and growing as a professional, and I seek opportunities to expand my knowledge and skills in the multifamily real estate industry.
