Full-Time Residential Leasing Agent - Military veterans preferred

Brixbid is looking for a full-time entry-level Leasing Consultant to join our growing team!

What We Do:

Brixbid Plus is a full-service leasing brokerage in Chicago. We offer renters a free concierge service to help them find their perfect apartment. We do this by teaming up with the city's top property owners and management companies to promote and fill their vacancies. Most of the units are located on the north, near west, and near south sides of Chicago (Evanston, Skokie, Rogers Park, Lakeview, Lincoln Park, Logan Square, Pilsen, Hyde Park, and everything in between) and range from entry-level studios to high-end penthouses.

What You Do:

Our Leasing Consultants are the true subject matter experts of the Chicago rental market. Your primary job is to assist renters from their initial inquiry to lease signing. This is not a "door opening" job - the most successful leasing agents have an intense work ethic, a drive to constantly learn and improve, and an entrepreneurial spirit to make their leasing business their own. We provide quality, house-generated leads to the most engaged agents. Still, your primary source of inbound rental inquiries will be via your marketing efforts, including posting ads on various platforms and promoting your social media presence. From there, you'll show available rental properties to your new renter clients after a pre-qualification / consultation phone call. After showing the apartments that fit that renter's criteria best, you'll need to navigate the application process of our various property owners. In short, be proactive, not reactive!

This is a 100% commission, 1099 contractor position. Commissions are uncapped - but to maximize your income, you'll need full-time availability and full engagement weekly. If you're the kind of person that can stay motivated and engaged without punching into a time clock, keep reading!

What You'll Need:

• Full-time availability - Successful agents put in 40+ hours a week
• Flexible schedule - Most renters are available to view apartments in the evenings and on weekends
• Active Illinois Leasing License or Broker License (or will have it obtained by the start date)
• Reliable car - Showings take place all over the city, not just at one building or neighborhood)
• Attention to detail - We don't work with only one specific owner, so being able to navigate each unit's unique details, policies, approval criteria, and application process is important
• Rapport building - Quickly build rapport during initial conversations to determine who are the most serious, motivated renters
• Entrepreneurial spirit - We don't tell you where to be and when. You promote your favorite units, efficiently schedule your showings, and show renters who are qualified and ready to rent
• Desire to learn - Be the first to go check out that new unit on the market, attend the broker open house, etc
