Leasing consultant
Description
A leasing consultant helps prospective tenants find and rent apartments or commercial space. They show available units, explain features, terms, and pricing, screen applicants, process applications and leases, and guide renters from interest to move-in — serving as the sales and service face of a property to people looking for a place to live or work.
The role blends sales and customer service with property knowledge, often the first point of contact at a property. Leasing consultants work for property management companies and apartment communities.
The job suits personable, enthusiastic, organized people who enjoy working with people and showing spaces, like the mix of sales and service, and want a customer-facing real estate role helping people find their next home or workspace.
