Job Overview

As a Leasing Manager, you lead the leasing team in building partnerships with future residents and securing lease agreements for a multi-million dollar, multifamily apartment home community.

Roles You Will Play

The Team Captain

  • Set your leasing team’s overall goals and daily sales objectives, mentoring them every step of the way
  • Hire, train, and motivate a stellar team while keeping group drama to a minimum
  • Create friendly competitions to incentivize your team – while always having their backs and holding yourself accountable for their success
  • Maintain an open-door policy and a friendly, highly visible presence, so associates feel comfortable talking to you about nearly anything

The Tour Guide

  • Discover future residents’ needs, show them around your community’s amenity areas and model homes, and highlight all the benefits that will make them want to call your community home
  • Brag about your community’s unique features and benefits – and highlight what sets it apart from the competition
  • Create added value by anticipating needs and addressing living concerns customers haven’t even thought about yet

The Deal Sealer

  • Put in extra effort to make prospective residents feel so at home, they’ll never want to leave
  • Optimize occupancy and increase community visits by finding new ways to boost online engagement, update promos/advertising, and create new marketing strategies
  • Scout the competition to stay one step ahead and keep bringing in the big bucks
  • Communicate with such clarity and enthusiasm that customers are left with only one question: “Where do I sign?” 

The Impact You Can Make

  • Occupancy is at an all-time high thanks to your world-class tours, ability to edge out the competition, and tactful ability to meet customer needs.
  • Community traffic and closing ratios have skyrocketed due to your strategic marketing.
  • Resident retention keeps climbing because you and your team have such a loyal customer following and have landed so many renewals.
  • You can rest easily at night knowing you and your team have improved people’s lives by providing a better living experience and homes that residents love.
