Remote Maintenance Person | Work From Home | Keep Properties Running Smoothly

Step into a 100% remote Maintenance Person role where your hands-on facility knowledge becomes the backbone of efficient property operations. You’ll coordinate repairs, support maintenance teams, review work orders, communicate with vendors, and help keep homes, apartments, offices, or commercial spaces safe and well-maintained—all from home.

Salary Range

Estimated Salary: $45,000 – $62,000 USD per year

Compensation may vary based on experience, maintenance background, property management knowledge, vendor coordination skills, and familiarity with work order or CMMS platforms.

About the Role

We are seeking a dependable, detail-oriented Remote Maintenance Person to support property maintenance operations from a fully remote work environment. This position is ideal for someone with practical maintenance knowledge who enjoys problem-solving, organizing repair workflows, and helping teams complete work quickly and correctly.

In this role, you will not be required to perform physical repairs on-site. Instead, you’ll act as a remote maintenance coordinator, troubleshooting requests, reviewing photos or videos, guiding residents or tenants, assigning vendors, tracking completed repairs, and ensuring every maintenance issue receives clear follow-up.

Key Responsibilities

• Review, prioritize, and manage maintenance requests through work order systems.
• Communicate with residents, tenants, property managers, and service vendors.
• Troubleshoot common maintenance concerns using photos, videos, phone calls, or virtual inspections.
• Schedule qualified vendors or on-site technicians for repairs that require hands-on support.
• Track repair progress from request submission to completion and final documentation.
• Maintain accurate records of maintenance activity, vendor invoices, parts needs, and service timelines.
• Identify recurring property issues and recommend preventive maintenance solutions.
• Support emergency maintenance coordination when urgent repairs affect safety, comfort, or property protection.

Requirements

• Previous experience as a Maintenance Person, Maintenance Technician, Property Maintenance Coordinator, Facilities Assistant, or similar role.
• Strong understanding of basic plumbing, electrical, HVAC, appliance, flooring, painting, and general property repair processes.
• Ability to diagnose issues remotely using descriptions, photos, videos, and clear communication.
• Comfortable using email, phone systems, video calls, spreadsheets, and maintenance software.
• Excellent organization skills with the ability to manage multiple work orders at once.
• Professional communication style for interacting with tenants, owners, vendors, and internal teams.
• Reliable internet connection, quiet workspace, and ability to work independently from home.

Why This Remote Maintenance Job Stands Out

This is a rare opportunity for maintenance professionals who want to stay connected to the field without being physically on-site every day. You’ll use your practical repair knowledge to make smarter decisions, reduce delays, improve tenant satisfaction, and help properties operate more efficiently.

If you enjoy solving problems, coordinating people, and keeping maintenance workflows moving, this remote role gives you the flexibility of working from home while making a real impact behind the scenes.

Benefits

• 100% remote work-from-home schedule.
• Stable salary with growth potential based on performance.
• Flexible work environment with no daily commute.
• Opportunity to work with property managers, vendors, and maintenance teams.
• Use of digital tools, work order platforms, and modern property management systems.
• Career path toward remote facilities coordination, property operations, or maintenance management roles.

Ideal Candidate Profile

The ideal Remote Maintenance Person is practical, responsive, and highly organized. You understand how repairs should be handled, but you also know how to communicate clearly with people who may not have technical knowledge. You stay calm under pressure, follow procedures, and take pride in making sure every maintenance issue is handled professionally.
