Leasing Agent- Dover Farms Apartments

A prospect calls on a Saturday morning, thirty minutes before your scheduled tour, asking if the two-bedroom is still available. You already know the answer, you know the floor plan, and you know exactly what to say to get them in the door. That's the rhythm of leasing at Dover Farms Apartments in North Royalton.

The Role at Dover Farms

Banyan Living is hiring an experienced leasing agent to drive occupancy and resident satisfaction at this North Royalton community. This is a full-cycle leasing position. You'll conduct tours, process applications, run credit and background checks, and prepare lease agreements, all while keeping Fair Housing compliance front and center. You'll also work alongside management to sharpen marketing efforts and support traffic generation when occupancy needs attention. When junior leasing staff need guidance, you're the person they come to.

North Royalton sits in the southern Cuyahoga County submarket, where garden-style communities compete on value and community feel rather than amenity arms races. Prospects here tend to be thorough: they compare options, ask detailed questions, and respond well to an agent who actually knows the property inside and out. That local dynamic puts a premium on relationship-building over high-volume transactional leasing.

What Banyan Living Is Looking For

• At least one year of residential leasing experience, with a solid working knowledge of leasing procedures and property management software
• Strong familiarity with Fair Housing regulations and lease documentation requirements
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office and comfort learning new property management platforms
• Communication and negotiation skills that hold up across prospect calls, tours, and lease signings
• Availability to work evenings and weekends when leasing traffic calls for it
• Prior experience mentoring or supporting junior leasing team members is a plus

Strong candidates in a role like this tend to separate themselves on follow-through. Processing an application accurately and on time, keeping prospects warm between inquiry and approval, and catching a documentation issue before it becomes a problem at move-in: those details matter more than a high-energy tour pitch. If you've worked in a community where delinquency and retention were actively tracked, you'll understand why the relationship with a current resident carries as much weight as closing a new lease.

Banyan Living offers health, dental, life, and disability insurance, PTO, sick leave, and paid holidays. Employees also receive a 35% rent discount and access to ongoing training opportunities.
