Real Estate Assistant: what they do, how hiring works and prices from $280 a month.

Virtual assistant to manage property maintenance requests is one of the most common requests we get from business owners. Here is what the work involves, the role that handles it and our real prices. They work your US business hours in your time zone, on a month-to-month package.

What a Real Estate Assistant Does

Best for real estate agents, brokerages, property managers and investors. Typical work includes:

  • MLS listing input and updates
  • Transaction coordination checklists and deadlines
  • CRM management in Follow Up Boss, kvCORE or Sierra
  • Lead follow-up calls and texts (ISA)
  • Showing scheduling

They already work in tools like Follow Up Boss, SkySlope, AppFolio and kvCORE. See the full Real Estate Assistant page for every task.

How a Virtual Assistant Handles It

Getting a virtual assistant to manage property maintenance requests usually takes about a week to settle in:

  • Day one: you show the task once on a short call or a Loom video
  • Your assistant writes the steps into a checklist and you approve it
  • First week: they do the work and you review it
  • After that: they handle it on their own and report on what they did

If the task needs logins, you share them through the encrypted vault in your account, never by email, and you can remove access at any time.
