About Mon Ami Mon Ami Real Estate is a fast-growing, dynamic real estate investment company based in Chicago, managing a diverse portfolio of approximately 100 commercial properties and over 150 residential units across 21 states. Since 2010, Mon Ami has developed a unique strategy focused on acquiring properties at below-market prices, driving value post‑acquisition, and generating strong returns for principals, investors, and JV partners. As a vertically integrated company, Mon Ami maximizes value for stakeholders by leveraging its in‑house team of real estate professionals to source, manage, redevelop, lease, and exit assets efficiently.

The Controller will oversee 3–5 Property Controllers plus AR, AP, and Treasury Accounting Managers (based in India), ensuring our properties are accurately represented, our teams have the reporting needed to drive NOI, and leadership and investors maintain confidence in Mon Ami’s execution.
