How to become a leasing agent?

Career: Leasing Agent

A leasing agent presents and promotes a rental property to a prospective tenant. To become a leasing agent, you must earn a high school diploma or equivalent. A college degree is not required, but completing the National Apartment Leasing Professional (NALP) certification course will teach you the basics of real estate leasing, such as rental policies and procedures and how to interview potential tenants. Secure a position in a real estate or rental property office by marketing your customer service and sales skills to gain experience in the field.
