Renting has always been an expensive and inconvenient process for tenants and time-consuming and uncertain for landlords. These rising challenges inspired the creation of REZI, with a mission to make housing more accessible financially without the bias and time commitment of the past. We are building proprietary technology and financial tools to transform the inefficient urban home rental industry with a foundational goal to provide a stellar client experience. Founded in 2016, REZI is an ambitious Y-Combinator backed startup with prominent VC support.

So What Does a Leasing Consultant do at REZI?

The Leasing Consultant's primary responsibility is to ensure prospective REZI tenants have an exceptional experience viewing and leasing REZI properties. The Leasing Associate is often the first contact with prospective tenants – positive first impressions are very important. Responsibilities of the Leasing Consultant also include touring REZI properties regularly, providing marketing brochures and information, explaining property features, maintaining a professional relationship with existing tenants and property management teams, and communicating opportunities for property improvement to REZI management. By marketing the value of the REZI platform, the Leasing Consultant plays a critical role in driving business growth and achieving REZI’s mission to transform the real estate industry. The position includes an exciting opportunity to work cross-functionally with the Real Estate, Technology, Legal, and Finance teams, learning many nuances of the business and technology.
