We are looking for Leasing Consultants.

Leasing Consultants are the face of Aimco. When visiting an apartment community for the first time, very often the first person you meet will be a Leasing Consultant. We recognize that first impressions make all the difference, and the ideal candidate understands the importance of a smile and friendly handshake. Providing excellent customer service to current and prospective residents is essential.

The Leasing Consultant is responsible for all aspects of leasing an apartment home as defined by Aimco policies and procedures. Responsibilities include locating and qualifying prospective residents, assisting current residents, lease renewals, and rent collection.

Make no mistake about it. A Leasing Consultant position is a sales position. A great Leasing Consultant knows how to determine the needs of a potential resident, address those needs with the right apartment home, and close the sale. Confidence and a little creativity go a long way, both in attracting new residents and interacting with them once they are there. The ability to schedule appointments and follow-up on inquiries plays a vital role in the success of an Aimco Leasing Consultant.

A Leasing Consultant is also a Customer Service position. The ideal candidate must be able to address the concerns of current residents in a friendly and professional manner. A successful Leasing Consultant must have strong organizational abilities, follow-up skills, and an attention to the little details that often make all the difference with current and prospective residents.
