    Buying and Selling Residential Real Estate With a Virtual Assistant


    Acquiring residential real estate and growing it into a profitable venture is tricky, and hundreds of components go into success. Whether alone or working with a small team, the profession demands long hours, stresses you, and requires you to overcome challenges consistently. 

    Thankfully, a remote team member can tackle some of the tasks involved in the industry. From transaction coordination and property research to small tasks like running your Twitter account, VAs can do many things to help real estate professionals grow their businesses. Here's everything you need to know about buying and selling real estate with virtual contractors.

    What Are the Benefits of Using a Virtual Assistant for Residential Real Estate?

    Real estate professionals can experience many excellent benefits when using remote assistants for buying and selling property. However, you might be surprised to learn about the many ways virtual assistants can contribute to your success! 

    Better Efficiency and More Capacity

    Do more things faster! If you're looking to grow by acquiring residential property, you can't do it alone (and you don't need us to tell you that). You know firsthand the countless aspects involved in making money from real estate. 

    However, virtual assistants give you the power to take on more clients, discover more homes, and significantly increase your output. VAs also streamline your efficiency, meaning you don't need to spend precious time on mundane tasks when your energy could be better spent elsewhere.

    While bringing in real estate talent can aid your expansion, doing so often comes with a hefty price tag when you need to add more team members to your business. 

    Fortunately, virtual contractors are a cost-effective alternative, allowing you to delegate many of your most time-consuming tasks at a fraction of the cost. For example, most real estate professionals can add 2-3 remote assistants to their team for the cost of one U.S.-based W-2 employee.

    Better Customer Service 

    One of the most significant benefits of using a remote assistant for your residential real estate business is improved customer service. Working with a VA means serving your customers better across all communication channels — for instance, replying to emails, handling queries and complaints, replying to social media comments, and even running a semi-automated chat service. 

    What Are the Best Residential Real Estate Virtual Assistant Tasks?

    While the best virtual team members can help with administrative tasks, VPM Solutions delivers professional real estate assistants who can also take on many industry-specific jobs. As a result, you can delegate many significant residential real estate virtual assistant tasks to your remote team.

    Transaction Coordination 

    You know more than anyone just how much paperwork is required when a home exchanges hands; it's overwhelming. You've likely been bogged down with such tasks as purchase descriptions, legal documents, and cross-party communication. 

    What if you could outsource this? A real estate VA can be your dedicated transaction coordinator and help you streamline purchasing processes.  

    Listing Management 

    Another critical aspect of running a real estate business is listing management. However, this is something you can delegate entirely to a virtual assistant. 

    A lot goes into marketing a property,  from uploading media, publishing and promoting marketing material, and generally showcasing the homes you offer. Real estate assistants reduce the demand listing management has on you. 

    Property Research 

    Finding the perfect properties to buy and sell is a huge decision. However, snapping up the best real estate requires significant time scrolling through the web, networking, and searching around. This is time you don't always have with the many other tasks you need to complete. 

    Luckily, property research is one of the most straightforward tasks to give to a real estate virtual assistant. Remote assistants collaborate with you to help you discover the best properties for the right price and determine whether the property is a long-term investment opportunity. 

    While researching new properties can be enjoyable and something you may only partially delegate, why not double up on your efforts in discovering new property, with you and a remote assistant working to uncover new investment opportunities? You could hire multiple remote assistants to increase your scoping potential further. 

    Scheduling Showings

    One area that must run seamlessly is showcasing and showing buyers their potential future homes. Property showings must have that "wow" factor from the second a prospect meets you to the follow-up messaging they receive. However, when you're stressed, trying to tackle 100 things at once, and rushing between tasks, you may not be in a great position to convey professionalism and authority. 

    A real estate virtual assistant allows you to prepare for viewings, ensure you always come across as professional, controlled, and trustworthy, and increase the chances of someone buying from you. Additionally, experienced VAs can schedule showings around everything else in your life. Imagine having the time and organization to prepare for viewings and show the property in the best light every time! 

    Business Marketing 

    With near-infinite ways to grow via digital marketing channels, it can feel like a never-ending struggle to market your business successfully. From endless content creation opportunities and running ads, not to mention social media, marketing is huge for any real estate professional.

    However, marketing is a perfect task to delegate to a real estate VA. From running your social media accounts, posting ads, creating content, and showcasing your homes through professional photos and videos, virtual team members can help you market your properties without sacrificing your precious time.

    Running a residential real estate business comes with mountains of paperwork. If you don't stay on top of it all, it can get out of hand very quickly. 

    However, what if you didn't need to do paperwork or significantly reduced the amount you do? What would you do with that extra time? Luckily, real estate virtual assistants can help you with various administrative paperwork tasks. 

    Find the Remote Team Member You Need to Buy and Sell Real Estate

    Virtual assistants can tackle everything from basic administrative tasks to specific real estate industry tasks. VPM Solutions can connect you with the most experienced remote team members for real estate to help you grow and scale while freeing up your time.
