About La Placa Group

La Placa Group is a privately held, entrepreneurial real estate investment company based in Southern California. With roots in custom home building and residential redevelopment, we have evolved into a diversified investment platform focused on distressed residential acquisitions and the strategic growth of our rental portfolio, with a long-term objective of scaling into small to mid-sized multifamily assets.

We operate as a lean, fast-moving team where accountability is high, decision-making is direct, and execution matters.

The Role

We are looking for a dynamic, driven professional who wants to grow with our company and make a meaningful impact within a small but scaling team. This is a role for someone with grit, attention to detail, and an ownership mindset—someone who isn’t afraid to jump in, take responsibility, and move quickly.

As a Financial Analyst – Acquisitions & Asset Management, you will work directly with one of the firm’s partners and play a critical role in identifying, underwriting, and prioritizing investment opportunities that align with our investment goals.

Your job is to sift through a large volume of opportunities from multiple deal sources, elevate the highest-priority opportunities, and help drive them toward execution. Speed, judgment, follow-up, and consistency are essential.

This is not a corporate or siloed analyst role. You will interface directly with ownership, internal team members, and external professionals, and your work will have a visible impact on the business.

What We Offer

• Competitive pay: $60,000–$72,000/year (DOE)
• Health insurance

• Paid time off
