One of the main duties I fulfill as a Weidner Apartment Homes Intern is showing our available apartments to prospective residents. As my community is typically over 98% occupied we are experiencing a number of lease expirations and notices during this time of the year due to our residents purchasing houses. This has been a great opportunity to schedule showings and get new residents living at Swan Creek. This past week I even made the leasing superstar list put out by corporate with 3 leases!!!! I am super proud of myself! From the initial phone call to personal showing, I love being able to share why Swan Creek Apartments should be their next home.
