Job description:
Simplestate Property Management is looking for an experienced Leasing & Property Management Assistant to join our Lincoln team.
This position will work closely with our Property Manager and will play an important role in keeping our properties leased, organized, and running smoothly. We are looking for someone who has prior residential leasing experience and is comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where priorities can change throughout the day.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working with residents and prospective tenants but also likes the administrative and organizational side of property management.
What You'll Do
- Handle the leasing process from initial inquiries through move-in
- Respond to prospective resident inquiries and schedule property showings
- Conduct property tours and communicate property features, pricing, and availability
- Process and review rental applications
- Prepare and maintain leasing paperwork and documentation
- Complete data entry and maintain accurate property and resident records
- Assist with move-ins, move-outs, and other resident-related tasks
- Keep property listings and availability information accurate and up to date
- Communicate professionally with current residents, prospective residents, vendors, and team members
- Assist the Property Manager with day-to-day property management responsibilities
- Help keep the Property Manager organized and on top of deadlines, follow-ups, and administrative tasks
- Take on additional responsibilities as needed to support the property management team
What We're Looking For
Required:
- Previous residential leasing experience
- Strong customer service and communication skills
- Excellent attention to detail and organizational skills
- Comfortable working with computers and entering data accurately
- Ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities
- Professional and friendly demeanor
- Ability to work independently while also being a strong team player
Preferred:
- Previous property management experience
- Experience with property management software
- Experience processing rental applications
- Knowledge of residential leasing practices and procedures
The Right Person
We are looking for someone who is dependable, organized, proactive, and willing to jump in wherever help is needed.
No two days in property management are exactly the same. The right person will be comfortable switching between leasing a property, answering a resident's question, processing an application, entering information into the system, and helping the Property Manager tackle whatever needs to get done that day.
We value people who take ownership of their work, communicate well, and don't need to be told every step of the way what needs to be done.
Why Join Simplestate?
You'll be joining a growing property management company with a hands-on team environment. This position offers the opportunity to build on your leasing experience while gaining broader exposure to property management operations.
If you have leasing experience, enjoy working with people, and are looking for a position where you can make a meaningful impact on a team, we'd love to hear from you.
Pay: $18.00 - $24.00 per hour
