Full-Time Leasing Consultant
About the Role
PeakMade Real Estate is hiring a full-time Leasing Consultant at one of their Murfreesboro communities. This is a front-line sales role with a direct line to occupancy. You're converting leads across phone, email, text, and in-person visits, and the expectation is clear: speed matters. Leads that go cold in the first hour cost occupancy points. The highest-performing consultants here run disciplined multi-touch outreach, they know the pricing and availability matrix cold, and they can pivot a tour on the fly based on what a prospect actually needs.
Responsibilities
- Generating and nurturing leads
- Delivering tours that create real urgency
- Closing leases
- Processing paperwork accurately
- Collecting deposits
- Maintaining CRM records in platforms like Yardi, Entrata, or RealPage, keeping prospect data clean and follow-up cadences on track
- Supporting the make-ready process during annual turn
- Conducting market surveys to stay sharp on competition offerings and community positioning
- Driving renewals and referrals through resident satisfaction starting from the first tour
Requirements
- At least one year of sales or leasing experience with measurable conversion results
- Demonstrated follow-up discipline across multiple outreach channels
- Working knowledge of a CRM platform (Yardi, Entrata, RealPage, or similar)
- Comfort working weekends and peak leasing hours
- Strong product knowledge habits, including competitive awareness
Qualities for Success
What separates the consultants who hit commission targets from those who don't usually comes down to follow-up consistency. Multi-touch outreach isn't a preference here; it's the baseline. If your instinct is to send one email and wait, this role will be a grind. If you track your own conversion rates and adjust your approach when the numbers slip, you'll find real earning potential in the commission structure.
Benefits
- Housing discounts (community-dependent)
- PTO plus dedicated wellbeing days
- 401(k) matching
- Structured opportunities for growth into leadership
For consultants with strong closing numbers and an interest in moving into an Assistant Manager or Property Manager track, leasing roles at companies with regional portfolios like this one are a well-worn path to that next step.
