Texas businesses move fast, and hiring often cannot keep up. A virtual assistant, including bilingual English and Spanish help, gets you support within days.
Virtual Assistant gives Texas businesses a dedicated virtual assistant from $240 a month, working Central time. You choose the role and the hours, and a US account manager matches you within 1 to 3 business days.
Why Texas businesses hire a virtual assistant
Houston has energy, medicine and its port. Dallas-Fort Worth has corporate headquarters, finance and logistics, Austin has technology and San Antonio has healthcare and the military. The Rio Grande Valley and border cities trade with Mexico every day, and many customers prefer Spanish.

Why hire your Texas assistant from Virtual Assistant
Your assistant works remotely and keeps Central time business hours, so your day and theirs line up. You get a person who learns your business, with a team behind them when something needs fixing.
- Easy to start small: Begin with the inbox and calendar on 20 hours a month, then add more as you see what can come off your plate.
- They know the real estate tools: Follow Up Boss, kvCORE, Dotloop, SkySlope, AppFolio and more.
- Cover the hours you need: Add evening and weekend coverage or a US business phone number, or choose a full-time shift.
- Clear prices, no lock-in: See your exact price before you order. Month-to-month packages can be cancelled any time, and unused hours roll over within your package limit.
- A US account manager: One person matches you, runs your kickoff call and stays your contact if anything needs fixing.
- Free replacement: If your assistant is not the right fit, we match you with a different one at no extra cost.
A virtual assistant or an in-house hire?
An in-house hire makes sense when the job needs someone physically on site. For work done on a screen or a phone, a virtual assistant usually costs far less, because you pay only for working hours, with no recruiting, desk, equipment or payroll taxes to arrange. You can also start with 20 hours a month and grow, instead of committing to a full-time salary before you know how much work there is.
