Real Estate Agent Assistant

A Real Estate Agent Assistant supports sales agents with the day-to-day running of a property business. You might work in a residential or commercial agency. You’ll help prepare listings, schedule appointments, and handle enquiries from clients. Real Estate Agent Assistants also organise inspections, update property databases, and assist with marketing materials.

You’ll need to be organised, reliable, and confident when dealing with people. Real Estate Agent Assistants work closely with agents, buyers, and vendors to ensure all tasks are completed efficiently and professionally.
