Showing & Leasing Sales Representative - admin / office - administrative job employment

Upper East Side, New York City | Forte Living

We are looking for an energetic, polished, and highly motivated Showing & Leasing Sales Representative to join our team on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

We are looking for someone who loves sales, enjoys working with people, understands how to present a property, and knows how to move a prospect from a showing to a signed lease.

This is not just a showing position. We want a true salesperson and closer who can create excitement around the property, understand the prospect’s needs, overcome objections, follow up consistently, and convert qualified leads into residents.

Responsibilities

• Conduct apartment and property tours for prospective tenants
• Present available units, amenities, building features, and neighborhood benefits
• Build rapport with prospects and understand their housing needs
• Explain pricing, concessions, availability, and leasing options clearly
• Follow up aggressively and professionally with every qualified prospect
• Manage leads from initial inquiry through application and lease signing
• Maintain accurate notes and follow-up activity in the CRM/leasing system
• Respond quickly to phone, email, website, and online leasing inquiries
• Coordinate appointments and maintain an organized showing schedule
• Assist prospects with applications and required documentation
• Work closely with management to maximize occupancy and leasing performance
• Track conversions, applications, leases, follow-ups, and lost prospects
• Maintain excellent knowledge of the property, available inventory, and competing buildings in the area
• Represent Forte Living professionally at all times

What We Are Looking For

• Strong sales personality with a genuine desire to close
• Experience in leasing, real estate, hospitality, luxury sales, automotive sales, retail sales, or another high-touch sales environment
• Excellent communication and presentation skills
• Comfortable speaking with a wide range of prospective residents
• Persistent and disciplined with follow-up
• Organized and able to manage multiple prospects simultaneously
• Professional appearance and demeanor
• Strong understanding of customer service and relationship building
• Comfortable working toward leasing and occupancy goals
• Ability to work weekends and flexible showing hours as needed
• Knowledge of Manhattan and the Upper East Side is strongly preferred
• New York real estate experience is preferred, but we are willing to consider exceptional salespeople from other industries who have the personality, discipline, and closing ability to succeed in residential leasing.

The Right Candidate

You should enjoy the sales process.

You should be someone who sees a prospect walk into the building and immediately starts thinking about how to understand what they want, match them with the right apartment, create urgency, follow up, and close the lease.

We want someone who is competitive, personable, responsive, organized, and excited about helping build a successful luxury residential property.
