Leasing Specialist

Full-Time | Non-Exempt | Pinellas County Housing Authority

Help People Find More Than a Home. Help Them Find Opportunity.

At the Pinellas County Housing Authority (PCHA), our work is about more than properties and leases. Our mission is to provide quality, affordable housing and improve the lives of residents—and every interaction with a prospective resident is an opportunity to bring that mission to life.

We are looking for an energetic, people-focused Leasing Specialist who enjoys connecting with others, showcasing communities, and creating a welcoming experience from the first inquiry through move-in.

What You’ll Do

As our Leasing Specialist, you’ll help connect prospective residents with housing opportunities across PCHA communities. You’ll:

• Respond to prospective applicants by phone, email, online inquiries, and in person.
• Provide clear and accurate information about available homes, eligibility requirements, application procedures, and community amenities.
• Conduct welcoming and professional property and unit tours.
• Develop creative marketing strategies to promote available homes through online listings, flyers, signage, social media, and community outreach.
• Build relationships with community partners and organizations to help connect people with PCHA housing opportunities.
• Process applications, prepare lease packages, and coordinate lease signings.
• Partner closely with Property Managers and Assistant Property Managers to support successful lease-ups and occupancy goals.
• Track leasing activity and market trends to help PCHA continually improve how we reach and serve prospective residents.
• Maintain accurate records while following Fair Housing requirements, HUD regulations, and PCHA policies.
