Gene Leverett

Gene Leverett began his career in multifamily in 2008 as a Maintenance Technician in the Southwest, developing a foundational understanding of operations from the ground up. While balancing hands-on property work and serving tables on weekends, he was presented with an opportunity to transition into leasing — a move that quickly revealed his talent for performance-driven results and relationship building.

Excelling as a Leasing Professional, Gene earned multiple top-performer awards across portfolios ranging from 500+ unit garden-style communities to high-rise assets in the heart of Tempe. His ability to connect market intelligence with execution positioned him as a natural leader.

In 2016, Gene relocated to South Carolina and joined Greystar in Mt. Pleasant under the leadership of Rachael Anderson. He rapidly advanced from Leasing Manager to Community Manager, earning a reputation as the “Lease-Up King” after successfully stabilizing four consecutive lease-ups. Throughout this period, he cultivated strong partnerships with asset management and ownership groups, consistently delivering high-occupancy performance while protecting asset value.

Following a brief sabbatical to travel and gain broader perspective, Gene returned to the Southeast, where he was entrusted with oversight of four downtown Charleston communities — a testament to the lasting relationships he built throughout his career. In a highly competitive market, he led his teams through operational challenges while maintaining performance standards, strengthening culture, and driving strategic execution.

Now serving as Regional Manager with Madison Communities, Gene brings a full-spectrum understanding of property operations, revenue strategy, team development, and asset performance. With a leadership style grounded in accountability, precision, and mentorship, he is committed to elevating teams, strengthening ownership partnerships, and driving sustainable portfolio growth.
