About the Role:

  • Provide timely updates and reminders throughout the transaction lifecycle

  • Coordinate key steps such as inspections, appraisals, and walkthroughs

  • Send executed contracts to title/lender (e.g., Kristina Stadler, Kristin Martin)

3) Timeline & Deadline Tracking

  • Monitor all critical dates (EMD, contingencies, loan approvals, etc.)

  • Proactively alert team of upcoming deadlines and required actions

  • Ensure 95%+ of deals close on or before the scheduled date

4) Escrow & Title Management

  • Track earnest money deposits and title/escrow progress

  • Schedule signings and ensure all parties are informed

  • Confirm all necessary documents are delivered before closing

5) Post-Close Wrap-Up

  • File final signed documents and archive transactions

  • Update CRM and internal systems

  • Prepare post-close reports or packages as needed

Required Skills & Experience:

  • 2+ years of experience in real estate transaction coordination or other relevant project management experience

  • Familiarity with real estate documents, timelines, and compliance is highly desired

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

  • Highly proficient in:

  • Asana (task and project management)

  • Go HighLevel (CRM and workflow automations)

  • Microsoft Office Suite (Outlook, Excel, Word, Teams, etc.)

  • DocuSign (digital document management and e-signatures)

  • Exceptional organization and task management

  • Comfortable working independently and handling 15–20 active files at once

  • U.S. time zone coverage (full-time, 9-5 EST)

Soft Skills We Value:

  • Calm under pressure and solution-oriented

  • Highly reliable, with a get-it-done attitude

  • Friendly, clear communicator

  • Naturally proactive — follows up and follows through

  • Discreet and trustworthy with sensitive information

Working hours:

This is a remote role with preferred coverage of Eastern Standard Time (EST) business hours, ideally between 9 AM and 5 PM EST.

What we offer:

  • Full-time job (8 working hours per day, Monday-Friday) . Please note that we will not consider candidates planning to combine several jobs.

  • Growth opportunity – opportunity to be promoted to manager of other TCs, if hits targets, director of project management.

  • Remote work – you may be located in almost any country or city, just need a good Internet connection, a computer to work from, and the opportunity to adjust your working schedule for the team.

  • Stability – this is not an internship or project work, we consider only the candidates looking for a long-term commitment of 1.5+ years.

  • Salary will be discussed at the interview. Paid in USD.

  • Quick selection process.


Application deadline: ASAP.
