Leasing consultants carry more of the operation than the title suggests. At a well-run community, they're touching traffic, applications, renewals, move-ins, move-outs, delinquency follow-up, and make-ready walks all in the same week. Weinstein Properties, a Richmond-based owner-operator with a multi-state portfolio spanning Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, Tennessee, and Georgia, is adding a Leasing Consultant at their Bexley community in Mt. Juliet, TN.
The schedule runs weekdays 9 to 6, Saturdays 9 to 5 on a team rotation, Sundays closed. Pay is $21 per hour with quarterly bonuses. Worth noting: this is not commission-based, which tends to produce a different kind of leasing culture, one where the team isn't competing for every lead and resident service gets treated as part of the job, not a distraction from it.
On any given day, you'll work internet leads and phone calls, schedule tours, process applications, and put together lease paperwork through move-in. On the resident side, that means renewals, notices to vacate, early terminations, pet addenda, transfers, account questions, and work order follow-up. You'll coordinate with maintenance to confirm apartments are ready, walk units to confirm punch list items are cleared, and handle move-out processing including security deposit dispositions. Rent posting and balance follow-up are also part of the role, as is occasional resident event planning.
That's a full-cycle leasing role. The administrative load is real, and attention to detail matters more here than a lot of postings let on.
They're open to candidates coming from customer service, sales, or hospitality backgrounds, not just people with prior property management experience. Training is provided. That said, the candidates who tend to hit the ground running bring:
Weinstein promotes from within and has the portfolio to support that. A Leasing Consultant who performs well here has a clear path toward Assistant Manager and eventually Community Manager, particularly across a company that owns and manages its own assets rather than operating as a third-party manager. That structure means decisions get made closer to the property, which tends to matter when you're trying to build a career rather than just fill a role.
