Company Background: 

Ownwell helps property owners reduce the costs of owning real estate. Our proprietary software automatically identifies property owners that are overpaying on real estate expenses. We then manage the end-to-end process of reducing bills through tax appeals, exemptions, and corrections.

Over $40 billion is overpaid in property taxes every year, and inaccurate tax assessments disproportionately affect people of color, immigrants, as well as low-income communities.

We’re dedicated to making the costs of property ownership more transparent and equitable. We believe that regardless of status or level of real estate expertise, everyone should have access to the information, tools, and resources to manage their real estate with confidence.

Ownwell is well-funded and venture-backed by some of the best investors in the world. Our company is growing 300% year-over-year. We are looking for driven and passionate team members who thrive in a collaborative, positive culture where we all win together. If this sounds like the place for you, come help us change the way everyday homeowners manage their real estate across the country.

 
The Role:
 
As a part of helping property owners reduce their property taxes, we regularly work with government entities across the country. Each entity has its own rules, government forms, and tax appeal filing deadlines which require us to have top-notch communication and execution.

An ideal candidate will be the most organized person you've ever met, with great attention to detail, a quick learner, and highly motivated to take on more. This opportunity provides entry and endless growth opportunities at a hyper-growth startup!
 
Responsibilities:
  • Research and document government processes, requirements, and deadlines to enable engineering automation
  • Verify customer information and details of real estate properties
  • Execute data entry from government websites (tax rates, property addresses, owner information, etc.)
  • File appropriate documents with tax assessment offices on tight schedules and coordinate with government counterparts
  • Learn to become proficient in both real estate and the property tax system
  • Exhibit effective time management while proactively working with the Operations team to file on-time property tax appeals
  • Develop and share best practices with team members to continually improve the quality, efficiency, and value of operations
Requirements:
  • Highly organized with attention to detail
  • Strong written and verbal communications skills
  • Quick learner, self-motivated, and a team player
  • Ability and desire to excel in a fast-paced environment
  • Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets experience
  • 1-3+ years of experience in an administrative or coordination role
  • Prior experience in real estate is a plus but not required

Ownwell’s vision is to democratize access to real estate expertise. When we say we want to provide access, we mean providing access to everyone. To do that well, we need a team that’s broadly representative. We welcome people from all backgrounds, ethnicities, cultures, and experiences. Ownwell is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ancestry, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital or family status, disability, gender identity or expression, veteran status, or any other status.
