Smart City is a human-centered apartment locating service that saves renters time and money when searching for a new place to live. We’re on a mission to help people find a space to be themselves, and our vision is to become the most Trusted, Referred, and Utilized resource among renters nationwide! We’re eager to add more awesome humans to our Sales Team who are ready to grow with the company, work hard, and win big!
What do we do?
We help people find the best deals on apartments! How do we do it? It’s pretty simple!
Our Marketing team generates qualified leads, aka our clients. You will manage the client relationship and chat with clients to get to know what they're looking for. Then you’ll send a personalized list of apartment options, accompany your client on tour, and help them lease their dream apartment! The client pays their rent, the apartment complex pays Smart City, and Smart City pays you! Win-win-win!
What will you do?
- Manage the client relationship from lead to lease
- Chat with clients via text, phone, and email
- Put together a hyper-personalized list of available units
- Work directly with property partners, schedule and attend tours
- Earn commissions for leasing clients
Let’s talk comp:
This role is paid by commissions from leasing.
Target compensation is $60k - $80k per year (assuming you put in a full-time effort, which we say is about 10-16 leases per month). We never cap commissions so top performers can earn $100k+.
Perks - because you know you want them:
- Flexible work arrangements and non-traditional work hours: This is absolutely not a 9-5 desk job. Your schedule is built around your clients, and you will work when they need you. This does mean conversations with them in the evenings and touring with them on the weekends! It also means having autonomy over your vacation and time off. Never ask permission to schedule a doctor’s appointment again!

What we obsess about every day:
People first culture - we care about your happiness as much as we care about our clients' happiness. We operate on a people driven schedule - work when your clients need you. Your schedule won’t be the typical 9-5 and our agents love that flexibility! If your clients are happy, so are we. Our learning and development is people first - we help you realize that it's okay to be a real person with your clients. That's about it. No 'salesy' education. On top of that, on-going development is important to us - 90% of our sales leaders started off as agents. We love to promote from within!
Why YOU will love working here:
Friendly competition - You'll love your peers. But you'll also love beating them to incentive rewards, like a new Peloton!
Fast Comp - We pay 80%+ of your commission up to 3 months faster than any other real estate company.
You Matter - You ARE the business. So we will consistently ask for your honest feedback. Seriously, we WANT the cold, hard truth.
