Leasing Specialist

Description

As a Leasing Specialist, you are the "face" of the neighborhood and the first person a future resident meets when they find their new home! Your role is to build relationships with prospective residents, highlight all the benefits of living at one of our three Specialized Real Estate Group properties, and fill up the neighborhood in line with set leasing goals. You will manage a pipeline of inbound leads and self-sourced leads, while also partnering closely with market employers to achieve leasing goals.

The Leasing Specialist must have an all hands on deck mentality and be eager and willing to jump in and help to get the job done! You should be able to thrive in a fast-paced environment, make decisions quickly, be a self-starter, and a time management wiz! Follow-up and attention to detail is critical.

Finally, you must demonstrate Specialized Real Estate Group’s core values and strive to achieve our mission every day!
