Asset Manager

Dwight Capital is a leader in commercial real estate finance and one of the largest FHA/HUD lenders on multifamily and healthcare properties in the United States. Our range of services include commercial lending across a variety of platforms such as CLO, USDA, Bridge, Mezzanine, and Preferred-Equity for both stabilized and new-construction properties.

Dwight is seeking a team player who has a “no job too big or too small” attitude. A proactive thinker with a can-do mentality who is ambitious and intuitive will prove successful. Dwight is looking for an individual who takes pride in their work and flourishes in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment. Must have the ability to manage time wisely while working with high volume, follow up diligently, and regularly communicate the status of projects. Our ideal candidate will take direction from Senior Management well, offer creative and prompt solutions to issues, and provide meticulous attention to detail.

Why This Role
As an Asset Manager on one of the most active FHA/HUD asset management teams in the country, you will manage an assigned portfolio of multifamily loans under the guidance of senior asset managers while also supporting the broader team’s portfolio analysis and reporting. This hybrid role combines core asset management responsibilities — borrower and HUD relationships, consent requests, risk assessment, covenant compliance, and watchlist reporting — with hands-on financial analysis and process automation. You will gain direct exposure to the full FHA loan lifecycle from underwriting through disposition, with structured mentorship and the opportunity to grow your responsibilities and advance your expertise in FHA/HUD asset management.

- Maintain financial performance and occupancy data in the portfolio management system.

- Maintain a current risk assessment of the assigned loan portfolio — performance, watchlist criteria, compliance, and inspection results.
- Ensure loan covenant compliance requirements are managed effectively, including initial input, monitoring, maintenance of collateral, and debt service thresholds.
- Follow up on delinquent loans with the goal of minimizing delinquent payments and preventing defaults.
Reserves, Escrows & Insurance

- Continually improve the integrity of portfolio information and standardized reporting, while ensuring the highest quality case recommendations.
Collaboration
- Coordinate and work alongside loan originators, external counsel, HUD and other government agency personnel, loan closers, peers, and third-party vendors to deliver consistent, high-touch service to borrowers and partners.
- Carry out ad hoc and special projects as requested by Senior Management.
