It's a Saturday afternoon, and a couple walks in without an appointment, having driven past Dylan Point Loma twice before finally stopping. You've got ten minutes to turn that curiosity into a signed lease. That's the job.
MG Properties has been acquiring, developing, and managing apartment communities across the Western U.S. for over 30 years. Dylan Point Loma in San Diego is one of those communities, and this Leasing Consultant position sits at the front line of keeping occupancy where it needs to be. You're the first impression, the tour guide, the application processor, and the move-in coordinator, all at once.
Day to day, you're greeting and qualifying prospective residents, walking them through units, and converting traffic into signed leases. You'll prepare and execute lease agreements, maintain accurate rental files, and enter data into the property management system with enough precision that nothing falls through the cracks at month-end. You'll also coordinate with the maintenance team to make sure new residents move into a clean, punch-list-complete unit. When current residents come to you with complaints or maintenance concerns, you handle them professionally and follow through.
Saturdays are required. Point Loma sees weekend traffic, and that's when leasing decisions often get made.
Compensation runs $21 to $22 per hour, with monthly and quarterly bonuses tied to performance. MG Properties also offers company profit sharing, a 401(k) with employer match, medical, dental, and vision coverage, paid holidays, sick time, and rental discounts for employees.
One thing worth knowing about MG Properties specifically: they promote from within at a rate that's notable for a company their size. A Leasing Consultant who hits occupancy targets, keeps delinquency low, and handles resident relations well is exactly the profile that moves into an Assistant Manager seat. The administrative work you do here, organizing files, processing applications, closing leases cleanly, builds the operational foundation that makes that next step a realistic one, not just a talking point in an interview.
