FAQs

An active Texas Real Estate License is required for Apartment Locators in Texas. Aside from that, we are always looking for individuals who are self-driven, enjoy helping others, dependable and honest, and who can build relationships and grow and maintain a network in their industry. If this sounds like you, you're already a great candidate!

Apartment locators are paid by the partner properties that they recommend to their customers. If a locator recommends an apartment to a customer and that customer signs a lease, the locator receives a commission from the leasing property. Often, this commission is equal to the first month's rent - our tools provide the applicable commission amount and locators always confirm with the property.

According to the Texas Real Estate Licensing Act, anyone who receives compensation for helping a prospective tenant find a location to rent is required to have an up-to-date real estate license. Being licensed in Texas requires all the same steps as the rest of the United States, but there are two additional conditions to be aware of. First, you must pass the state and national license exams. In addition to this, the Texas Real Estate Commission is paid for your license application fee, and has the ability to release an inactive license. If you would like to learn more, visit the TREC website or view our agency disclosure.

Income varies based on your work ethic, ability to connect with customers, and your tenure! New Agents are typically on track to make anywhere from $55K - $100K in Year 1, though results may vary.

Perch offers a direct deposit option, so you get paid as soon as your check comes in! Our collections team prides itself on industry leading results - receiving payments 45 days after Move-In, on average! Training is provided to all new agents, and we do not require any monthly desk fees or technology fees.

This differs based on the market you are in, but on average, our agents receive 15-20 hot leads per month. We also train and support you on how to generate your own additional leads and opportunities to drastically increase your earning potential!
