What is a lease administrator?

A lease administrator helps a property management or real estate company keep track of tenants’ leases at the company’s properties. As a lease administrator, you process and file new leases and ensure established leases are current. You also perform accounting duties for the leasing agent, such as financial reporting on the income of the properties, maintain accounting standards at the leasing agency, and handle tenant terms and payments. Qualifications for lease administrators include a bachelor’s degree in finance or a related field. Other helpful skills include proficiency with spreadsheets and database systems.
