Curious, Has anyone ever hired a third party leasing company to handle a lease up as opposed to onsite property employees? If so, what was your experience and who did you use?

We are currently using Class at our Lease Up. It isn't working out because the contract restricts the Class Rep from doing anything other than tour. Literally, she tours and she is done. This leaves me to handle literally everything else from the tour on. I wouldn't recommend. Feel free to PM me for specifics

Power with Karen A. Gladney is AMAZING and exactly what you’re looking for. They have an AWESOME reputation and Karen is second to none.

Yes. I used someone that has since passed away. Suzanne Pettyjohn. It was an amazing experience. It was in my earlier days and I learned the true importance of follow up. This is where they succeeded where we did not. Lots of evening time follow up calls. And several open houses.

Yes, and it’s great. Reach out to Magdalena Illia or Santiago Illia, their company just finished a successful lease up in Atlanta.

What Kelley said. I’ve used MVP Marketing on 3 lease ups in Atlanta and one in Jacksonville. She’s ridiculously good at what she does.

You should check out The Property Partner training. Instead of coming in to lease up and leave, they teach your onsite team the aggressive sales skills needed and shadow lease alongside them.

Hi Aaron- we used Sales Inc.
What we found most helpful was their marketing time spent outside of the community.
It was expensive, but we saw some benefit.
If you can find a great leasing agent and an outside marketer who is confident and local to the community, you can likely re-create this for less money.
