Pros

Sounded like a great concept, you get paid a salary, benefits and bonus for each lease in advance.

Cons

As an apartment locator, the standard split in the industry for a lease is 50%, and there it is supposed to work out to about 47% of every deal, Including your benefits, hourly salary and bonus for each lease, however, that is not true, I worked there over a year, and what happened instead is that they keep promising me that I would be rewarded for my production, but instead, I was not even able to pay my bills, and kept going in the hole more and more every month waiting for my promised raises. You can't win with this company, they keep promising raises but then they just keep delaying increasing your income. You are provided a cubicle, a computer and phone. You are expected to make over 100 calls a day, even if you are a top locator, you can barely make ends meet. And to keep your pay, you are given impossible goals to achieve in order to receive the bare minimum. Even if you are a great locator and work hard, you can't get ahead. You go in for reviews every 3 months hoping that you can at least just make a decent living, and are wore out by working so hard, and not compensated for it. You can't leave because you can't afford to.

Pros

This job offers incredible flexibility, allowing me to balance my family life while pursuing my passion for real estate. Working from home is a major plus—it gives me the freedom to manage my schedule and stay productive in a comfortable environment. As an apartment locator, I truly enjoy helping people find their new homes. If you work hard and really listen to your clients, you can be very successful in this industry. I’ve personally achieved goals this year that I didn’t expect to reach as a new agent. Management is always available to answer questions and provide support, no matter your level of experience, and my coworkers are kind, encouraging, and eager to help. Their advice and teamwork have made a huge difference in my growth and success.

Cons

You’ll work with many different client personalities, and it can take patience to adapt to each one. While you always strive to make every client happy, occasionally you’ll encounter someone who’s difficult to please. The key is to stay positive, keep your head high, and continue moving forward.
