Overview
We're hiring a Leasing Agent who wants their income tied to their performance, not to a clock. This is a sales role first. You'll be the person who turns inquiries into tours, tours into applications, and applications into signed leases across our Savannah residential portfolio.
$10/hour base + uncapped leasing commissions.
The base is a floor, not the plan. Our top performers earn most of their income from commissions, and there's no ceiling on what you can make. If you want a guaranteed salary, this isn't the role. If you've built your income on commission before and want a portfolio with real leasing volume behind it, keep reading.
Reliable transportation is required — you'll be driving to properties daily for showings and tours.
What You'll Do
- Work every lead fast. Respond to inquiries by phone, email, and listing platforms before your competition does.
- Schedule and run tours that sell the home and the community, not just the square footage.
- Close. Walk prospects through application, screening, lease signing, and move-in without losing them along the way.
- Follow up relentlessly. Most leases are won on the third or fourth touch.
- Handle objections with confidence and keep deals moving.
- Process applications and keep prospect and resident records clean in AppFolio.
- Partner with property managers to hit occupancy targets and support renewals.
- Support marketing efforts that drive traffic to your properties.
- Conduct every interaction in full compliance with Fair Housing regulations and Georgia landlord-tenant law.
- Build relationships that make residents want to stay and refer.
What You Bring
- Commission-based sales experience is required. You've carried a quota, worked a pipeline, and earned a meaningful share of your income from commissions.
- A proven closing record. Tell us what you sold and what you earned doing it.
- Self-motivated and comfortable with variable income. You'd rather have upside than a guarantee.
- Outgoing, energetic, and genuinely good with people.
- Strong phone, written, and in-person communication skills.
- Ability to juggle a full pipeline without letting leads go cold.
- Knowledge of Fair Housing regulations and landlord-tenant law preferred.
- Proficiency in AppFolio or willingness to learn it quickly.
- Leasing, real estate, hospitality, or retail sales background preferred.
- Familiarity with the Savannah rental market is a plus.
- Valid driver's license and reliable transportation required.
Why Daybreak
