Meet the Team

Think 1992 Dream Team but for apartments.

Say it With Me Now

Be Innovative. Design an Experience.

We either throw out the playbook or play hard in it. We always remember that life happens within the walls that we create.

Be Respectful.

Its not just a “unit" we’re managing and creating people’s homes. Our clients are not just building owners, its their livelihood. We keep empathy at the forefront.

Be Responsive.

It’s important to us, to give timely responses even if it’s just to say, “I’m on it.” Our goal is to keep everyone at ease by keeping everyone in the loop — this work is personal.

Our Team

In a cookie cutter industry, we take an original approach.

Our team is passionate and design-focused. We are a creative group who dig deep in search of the next big idea.

Tony Moore

Senior Property Management Coordinator

Tony has been with MyNiche since 2021. As the Senior PM Coordinator, Tony has provided leadership to his assigned portfolios, helped streamline and organize best practices and procedures, and provided insight to the core management team to help MyNiche achieve company goals and benchmarks. Tony’s introduction to the industry came in 2007 when he joined a brand-new lease-up in Wilmington, NC with Tribute Properties. Directly overseeing leasing efforts at the asset, he contributed to filling up the golf course community in under a year. Seeing that there was nothing else quite like this industry, Tony knew this was where he was meant to be. Shortly after that, he transferred to another location and soaked in all the knowledge he could before being awarded his first Community Director role at a stabilized property. Ove the next three years, he maintained solid occupancy at his asset and maximized revenue for the company. Tony was then promoted to Senior Community Director in the Charlotte/Rock Hill/Asheville markets. New to the Piedmont area, Tony was able to oversee a portfolio of 1500 units in a regional capacity. Leading these teams, Tony was able to provide support and training to the portfolio with lasting, successful impact. With many continued years of management in the industry throughout the NC market in Charlotte, Greensboro, Hickory, and Mooresville, Tony was able to be exposed to property take-overs, renovation projects, and stabilizing distressed assets. With a knack for organization and an eye for numbers, Tony has found the most joy in bringing balance, establishing policies and procedures, training and mentoring, providing support to site teams, and leading by example. Tony’s love for the industry shows in his capacity for strong guidance of his team and his ideas for furthering the growth of the company. When not at work, Tony is an avid runner, actor, writer, and traveler. A military brat who has called NC “home” since high school, he especially loves the coast and tries to sneak away there as often as possible. He lives just outside of Charlotte with his partner and four dogs. And he has a sweet tooth for pretty much anything chocolate.
