About the Role

At Excel Development Group, we develop, build, and manage affordable housing communities that families are proud to call home. This internship is a great opportunity for a student who wants real world experience supporting that mission through compliance and property management operations, not just busywork.

• Help maintain compliance documentation and record keeping systems
• Assist with data entry and reporting in property management software
• Learn how LIHTC, HUD, and state agency requirements shape day to day property operations

You Might be a Good Fit If:

• Currently enrolled in a business, real estate, finance, public policy, or related major (not mandatory)
• Interested in gaining practical experience beyond the classroom
• Organized, detail oriented, and reliable — accuracy matters in compliance work
• Comfortable working with spreadsheets and learning new software
• Able to work in office 15-20 hours per week

• Exposure to affordable housing, compliance, and property management operations
