Voluntary Flexible Spending Accounts: In addition to our other benefit plans, Thies & Talle offers a flexible spending account for unreimbursed medical expenses and dependent day care.

The designated amount is deducted from the paycheck before Federal, State and FICA taxes and reduces your tax burden.

Achieving goals is a reflection of the service our residents are receiving and their overall satisfaction in the community they call home. In life, many of us have received a special bonus for reaching a goal. The sense of pride and accomplishment upon receiving a bonus and reaching a goal is a wonderful source of motivation. Here at Thies & Talle we understand that it takes more than one person to successfully rent an apartment, or to successfully manage a community. It takes a team! For this reason, we offer bonus programs to all of our property staff. Property Managers, Leasing Specialists, Caretakers and Maintenance Technicians are eligible for our No Lost Rent Bonus that is given out when an apartment is successfully made ready so a new resident is able to move into the home without a single day of rent being lost. Property Managers and Leasing Specialists are eligible for Leasing Bonuses for the successful leasing of apartments. Property Managers are eligible for Quarterly Bonuses based upon the Collected Rental Income and also Renewal Bonuses based upon the number of residents that renew their leases. At Thies & Talle we set realistic goals and want you to achieve your bonus potential. We believe that achieving bonuses is a reflection of a well-managed property and a cohesive management team serving our residents.
