We built our model around that
When owners call CLASS, it’s rarely a casual conversation. It is a property that needs NOI to go from red to black now. Our process and business model is designed to move at that speed and to align incentives.
Tell us about your property
Share your community, your occupancy challenge, and your timeline. After our initial 30-minute call, and review of property data, we determine if it is a mutual fit to move forward.
Agreement and kick-off
Upon executed agreement and retainer, we meet with the team to receive more feedback on the property and to ensure everyone is set up for success.
We deploy a certified specialist
A CLASS leasing specialist arrives on-site with a CLASS management representative and begins leasing. Your onsite management stays in control of approvals and standards while we focus purely on leasing for 45-days at a time.

How we work
Most of our success comes down to the six values every CLASS Leasing Specialist is hired, trained and measured against.
Positive Mental Attitude
This has been part of CLASS’ DNA since Day 1. We aim to keep the positivity and energy up. It impacts what we call “The CLASS Effect.” We are easy to work with and are always professional.
Communicate
Our industry moves quickly. Changes can happen daily and even hourly. We want appropriate communication with our customers and our team.
Be Adaptable
Every property, client, and prospect is different. We help all demographics across the United States find a great home.
Get Results
Our customers hire us to increase occupancy and get results. This means bring in traffic if there isn’t any and to close on prospects.
Earn Trust
Trust is the cornerstone of all relationships. It is earned over time through our actions.
Embrace Growth
Every day is a new opportunity for growth, learning, and improvement. We are receptive to feedback and work to improve ourselves and CLASS.
Four decades
One standard
Founded in 1984, CLASS has built a legacy of success and earned its reputation as the most effective leasing and training firm in the nation. CLASS’ incentives are completely aligned with yours on all engagements, and we are only successful if you are as well. The uniform has evolved; the standard behind it never has.
1984
CLASS is founded in Atlanta as the first third-party leasing company in the country.
80s–90s
The red jacket era. Leasing Specialists wore the recognized “red jacket” uniform, which becomes the most recognized look in the industry.
Today
CLASS’ uniform has evolved, but its standard hasn’t. Today CLASS serves more than 100 properties annually and Clients trust CLASS to solve their hardest problems.
The reputation precedes us
With CLASS, our vacancies have always been absorbed no matter the circumstance. CLASS leasing specialists have always come to our rental communities very well trained, and they simply know how to get leads that turn into leases.
I would not even think about leasing up another property without CLASS. The leasing team is trained to close leases, they come professionally dressed and work well with the onsite team.
We had a property tucked away that we thought was impossible to lease because of its location. A CLASS leasing specialist showed up, began leasing 2–4 units per day and it started a completely new culture on site.
CLASS is our secret weapon! Very professional agents, incredible closing skills, and great customer service every single time. They deliver real results, fast.
CLASS fills a critical need in our business with efficiency and professionalism. CLASS agents are prepared for assignments and perform their responsibilities with detail, care, and expediency. Our on-site teams are always appreciative of their support and collaboration.
I have known CLASS since 1990 and their ability to come in and energize a community and give a push is priceless. They are relentless in helping identify what to do and how to get it done, and usually give the on-site staff a perspective that has a long-lasting effect!
Over the last 15+ years, CLASS has been an invaluable extension of our team. Whether bridging temporary staffing gaps or executing targeted strategies by bringing in top leasing professionals to lift occupancy, they consistently honor their commitments and achieve positive leasing results.
CLASS’s professionalism and diligence was instrumental in our properties gaining occupancy in three very competitive markets.
Our experience with CLASS was extremely positive. Their agents were professional, courteous, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. They came in with a clear focus and a strong understanding of the market, and their efforts were successful in helping us lease our units. We would highly recommend CLASS to anyone looking for a professional and results-driven leasing team.
