Leasing Consultant

What You'll Actually Do

This leasing consultant role at Bozzuto's New Rochelle community puts you at the center of the resident acquisition cycle. Your day runs from prospect to lease: fielding inbound inquiries, following up with leads before they go cold, and converting that interest into scheduled tours. The tours themselves matter here. Bozzuto operates communities where the in-person experience is a real differentiator, so your ability to read a prospect and personalize the walk-through carries genuine weight on your closing rate.

Beyond the floor plan conversation, you're responsible for building the community's social presence. That means creating content on platforms like Instagram and Facebook that generates organic interest, not just reposting corporate graphics. Residents and prospects increasingly discover communities through social before they ever contact the leasing office, so this piece of the job is tied directly to traffic and occupancy. You'll also work three weekends per month, with two weekdays off in exchange. That's the reality of leasing: peak prospect traffic happens on Saturdays and Sundays, and the schedule reflects it.

What You Bring

• Strong verbal and written communication, comfortable shifting tone from a quick text follow-up to a detailed email about lease terms
• Genuine comfort with social media content creation, specifically Facebook and Instagram
• Sales instinct and the ability to read where a prospect is in their decision process
• Proficiency with software and property management platforms (or the aptitude to learn them quickly)
• A sharp, professional presentation for in-person tours and community events
• A New York real estate license, or the commitment to obtain one within 90 days of hire

Context Worth Knowing

New Rochelle has seen meaningful multifamily development activity over the past several years, with the downtown rezoning attracting new Class A product. That means the rental market there carries real competitive pressure. Prospects often tour multiple communities in a single afternoon, so the quality of your interaction and follow-up cadence matters more than it would in a less saturated submarket. Consultants who stand out in this environment tend to be the ones who remember details from a prospect's first call and reference them during the tour. That kind of specificity builds trust faster than any scripted pitch.

Bozzuto reports a salary range of $56,732 to $58,000 for this position, with additional bonus opportunities. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage, 20 days of paid time off plus holidays, a 401(k) with company match, and tuition reimbursement.
