What are the responsibilities and job description for the Leasing Agent in Largo, FL, Apartment Community position at Fortiva Residential?
We're Hiring a People Person — Leasing Agent at Fortiva Residential
Do you light up a room when you walk in? Are you the kind of person who makes every interaction feel warm, easy, and memorable — like a great barista who already knows your order? We're looking for you.
At Fortiva Residential, our Leasing Agent is the heartbeat of our community. You're often the first smile a future resident sees, and the friendly voice that makes someone feel at home before they've even signed a lease. We don't just want someone to fill a role - we want someone who genuinely loves people and gets excited about connecting them with a place they'll love living in.
What you'll actually be doing:
You'll meet and greet prospects, lead tours, follow up on leads, and guide people through the leasing process from "just looking" to "I'll take it." Beyond leasing, you'll respond to calls and emails, and make sure our leasing office and model units always look their best.
Behind the scenes, you'll work in our Software (AppFolio/ Knock) to keep everything accurate and up to date, and you'll stay sharp on local market trends so we're always putting our best foot forward.
You're probably a great fit if you:
- Love talking to people and genuinely enjoy helping them
- Have a knack for sales without ever feeling "salesy"
- Stay organized and follow through - people count on you and you don't let them down
- Pick up new software quickly and don't shy away from technology
- Are flexible and available when our prospects need us most
- Have some leasing or customer service experience (a plus, but your personality matters most)
- Know the basics of Fair Housing - or are eager to learn
This is a full-time, on-site role at one of our residential communities in Largo, Florida. You'll be where the action is every day. Bonus pay for countersigned leases and renewals can be earned. After 90 days you are invited to participate in our Dental, Vision and Health Care Benefits, PTO, paid holidays and 401-K.
If you're someone who finds joy in making people feel welcome and you're ready to bring that energy to an amazing team — we'd love to meet you. The next step would be an invitation for a 10 min. video call.
We are seeking to fill this position in 2 to 4 weeks
