Leasing Consultant - Part Time

Part-time leasing roles tend to attract people who want steady hourly work without the full 40-hour grind. What makes this one worth a closer look is the company behind it. Weinstein Properties has been family-owned for over 70 years, operates more than 60 communities across five states, and runs a hands-on model that puts real weight on customer experience rather than just occupancy numbers.

The position is at Bexley at Heritage in Wake Forest, NC. Starting pay is $18/hour, with increases based on experience, quarterly bonuses, and a 10% rent discount. The schedule runs about 20 hours per week, with most or all Saturdays required and flexible weekday hours negotiated around your availability.

What the Work Actually Looks Like

You're the first person a prospect talks to, and often the last touchpoint before they decide to sign or walk. That means touring units, answering questions by phone and email, following up on leads, and helping current residents feel heard when they have concerns. But this isn't a pure sales role. Administrative tasks, property walks, inspecting make-ready units, and pitching in on community appearance are all part of the job. Weinstein is upfront: everyone does a little bit of everything.

Some days will be interrupted constantly. A prospect walks in while you're mid-task, a resident has a complaint, and your to-do list shifts on the fly. That's not unusual for leasing work at any property. Knowing it going in makes it easier to handle.

Who Does Well Here

Weinstein explicitly welcomes people without leasing experience, and they mean it. Their training program is built for that. What they're actually filtering for is reliability, warmth with strangers, and a genuine interest in helping people find a home. Strong candidates for this specific role tend to come from retail, hospitality, or customer service backgrounds where they've handled high-interaction environments without losing their composure.

• Comfortable talking to people in person and in writing
• Organized enough to manage follow-ups and administrative tasks alongside tours
• Available most Saturdays without it being a recurring conflict
• Able to take direction during training and apply it independently afterward

For the right person, this is a legitimate entry point into property management. Weinstein promotes from within, and leasing is the traditional starting point for site managers, assistant managers, and eventually community director roles. A part-time leasing position that gives you real training and Saturday traffic exposure builds the foundation faster than many full-time roles that keep consultants siloed in one task.
