Do you love helping people and making a sale? Are you interested in real estate and helping people find a home? Do you thrive in an environment of friendly sales with motivated buyers?

Real Property Management has the perfect role for you as a Leasing Manager. You will nurture prospects and play an essential part in helping renters find a place to call home. You will also have a team of leasing agents working with you to make sure we are quickly turning properties and placing tenants in these quality homes!

If you have natural people skills and a desire to succeed, we want you to join our collaborative team!

Why You’ll Want to Join Our Team as a Leasing Agent

As an employee at Real Property Management First Choice, you are part of a team and will be interacting and involved with operations and other aspects of the business. You’ll have a solid understanding of what we offer and a full appreciation for the value we provide to our clients.

We provide all the training you need to become a great Leasing Manager! You will work closely with our other leasing agents, making sure that our properties are turned quickly, applications are processed in a timely manager, and that tenants get the added attention they need during the "onboarding" process and move in to their rental!

Our focus is on building relationships, not just closing a sale. We want our residents to love where they live, and you will open the door to that possibility.

Your Responsibilities as a Leasing Agent

• Nurture Leads – As the first point of contact for incoming applicants, you will reach out to leads to arrange showings and follow up after the showings are complete. The goal is a successfully signed lease and a resident who rents from us again and again.
• Conduct/Follow up Showings – Most of our showings are "self showings" but sometimes if might be needed to go do an in person showing. For self showings it is imperative that you are following up once the prospect completes the showing to answer any questions or send them a rental application. On the rare occasion that you will do an in person showing, you will tour leads through the properties we rent and help them see themselves living there. All the glamor of a real estate agent but with less pressure.
• Get Applications & Get Leases – Follow our process to ensure the lead submits an application. Keep the applicant informed throughout the process and get them all the way to a signed lease agreement.
• Solicit Feedback and Make Recommendations – As the primary point of contact for the applicants, you will get the direct feedback on rent pricing, features, and amenities. You will bring your observations back to help influence listed rent prices and adjust as needed. One of the most important parts of this job is to adjust to the market as needed to keep vacancy rates low.
• Service with A Smile – You are probably the first person a lead talks to, and their guide through the showing and application & move in process. You will help answer their questions, put them at ease, and make their first few impressions of us a great experience.
• Help back up the property manager as needed.
• Take out signs & lockboxes as needed.
Help with walking move ins/move outs as needed.

To Be Successful in this Role

• You view every interaction as an opportunity to grow relationships.
• You’re flexible and willing to serve our property owners by understanding time is of the essence and staying on top of getting properties rented.
