Luxury Apartment Leasing Consultant - Parktowne Premier Apartments
AIR CommunitiesWhat You'll Actually Do
Parktowne Premier is an AIR Communities luxury property in Philadelphia, and this Leasing Consultant role is built around one core metric: signed leases. You'll work AIR's structured sales process from first contact through move-in, which means prompt follow-up with every active prospect, scheduled tours that sell both the unit and the community, and consistent attention to the details that push a maybe into a yes. Monthly leasing goals are tracked, tiered, and real. Your commission structure rewards you at multiple points: hitting monthly targets, leasing higher-rent units with upgraded finishes or better views, and closing longer lease terms (18 months or more). That layered commission model is how total compensation reaches the $78,000 to $135,000 range the role advertises.
Beyond your own lease count, you'll contribute to community marketing and provide leasing coverage across other AIR portfolio properties as business needs shift. Fair Housing compliance is non-negotiable and part of daily practice here.
What You Bring
- At least one year of sales or customer service experience with measurable goals. Property management experience is relevant but so is hospitality, retail, or restaurant work where you were expected to hit numbers.
- A track record of following a defined sales process rather than improvising every interaction.
- Schedule flexibility including weekends, which shift by season and community need.
- Reliable transportation.
- An active Pennsylvania Real Estate License, or the ability to obtain one within 180 days of your start date.
The Performance Reality
Luxury leasing at a Class A property like Parktowne Premier means prospects arrive with high expectations and real alternatives. The tour has to do real work. Philadelphia's rental market carries enough supply in the premium segment that traffic-to-lease conversion matters as much as raw traffic volume. Strong consultants here know how to read where a prospect is in their decision process, follow up without being dismissive, and position specific unit attributes (floor, finish level, lease term flexibility) as value rather than upsells. Consultants who treat every interaction as a one-shot close tend to underperform. The ones who build a short-term relationship during the leasing cycle, even if it spans a few weeks, close at higher rates and earn the upper end of that commission range.
AIR's benefits package includes medical, dental, vision, 401(k) with employer contribution, up to 16 weeks of paid parental leave, tuition assistance, and a 25% rent discount at any AIR community. Depending on business need, there's also a potential unpaid Winter Break after peak season with benefits intact, which functions as extended time off for those who want it.
