Location: Remote, Philippines
Employment: Full-time

Schedule: Eight-hour- nine hours workday during U.S. Eastern business hours, Monday–Friday. Exact shift agreed before hiring; campaign coverage falls within our approved outreach window. Occasional additional coverage may be needed and will be agreed and compensated.

About us
Abound Property Group is a New Jersey-based real estate investment and development company buying, renovating, and reselling properties across multiple U.S. markets. Our primary focus is direct, off-market single-family opportunities, with select other property types evaluated when the economics make sense.

We are expanding and need an experienced acquisitions professional who can keep conversations moving, identify worthwhile opportunities, and stay accountable for follow-up. We buy and close on properties ourselves.
The role
This is not an entry-level role. Prior hands-on experience managing direct-to-agent SMS outreach for a U.S. real estate investor or acquisitions team is required. Replying to agents by text is a central responsibility of this position. You must already know how to interpret agent replies, write natural responses, ask relevant qualifying questions, identify off-market opportunities, and keep multiple conversations moving toward a clear next step. Seller-outreach experience alone does not meet this requirement. We will train you on our company-specific processes and buy box, but you must demonstrate these core communication and acquisitions skills before hiring.

You will manage high-volume agent conversations through Smarter Contact, qualify opportunities, complete preliminary deal analysis, and send clear lead summaries into Slack. You will also track owner review, communicate approved offers, and follow up with agents until each opportunity has a documented outcome or next step.

You must be comfortable making routine screening decisions, asking intelligent questions, and recommending a course of action. We will teach you our buy box and decision rules, but you should already understand U.S. real estate acquisitions.

This is a demanding role requiring sustained focus and strong judgment. Across campaigns, our team may contact approximately 8,000–15,000 agents in a day. Your assigned workload may include approximately 150 or more active agent conversations daily, depending on campaign activity. Our existing VA currently forwards approximately 9–40 opportunities on active days. These figures describe workload variability; we value qualified opportunities and follow-through over inflated lead counts.
What you will own
- Manage assigned SMS campaigns, monitor incoming replies, and keep conversations organized in Smarter Contact.
- Communicate naturally and confidently with agents as a trusted member of our acquisitions team.
- Identify direct, off-market opportunities and screen out unsuitable retail listings, wholesaler chains, duplicates, and properties outside the approved buy box.
- Read campaign context before responding so you reference the correct state, market, and buying criteria.
- Collect and verify addresses, asking prices, property condition, photos, occupancy, seller timing, and the agent's relationship to the seller.
- Resolve incomplete or inconsistent information through research and concise clarification questions.
- Use Zillow and other available property sources to investigate properties, select relevant sold comparables, estimate resale value, identify risks, and recommend a preliminary acquisition range.
- Explain your analysis: which comps you used, what assumptions you made, estimated costs, expected margin, and why the property deserves review or should be passed on.
- Submit qualified opportunities in the company's standard Slack format, with supporting links and a clear recommended next action.
- Track opportunities awaiting Benga's review and proactively remind him when a decision is needed.
- Send offers only after approval, accurately communicate approved terms, and follow up for seller feedback, counters, and decisions.
- Maintain accurate labels, notes, offer records, next-action dates, and daily pipeline reporting.
- Coordinate accepted-offer handoffs so documents, access requirements, and time-sensitive items reach the right team member promptly.
Required experience and skills
- Required: proven experience personally handling two-way SMS conversations with U.S. real estate agents as a lead source for an investor or acquisitions team. Sending bulk campaigns without managing replies is insufficient.
- Strong texting skills are essential: interpret what an agent means, respond quickly and naturally, handle objections, ask the right follow-up questions, qualify or disqualify opportunities, and maintain the relationship. Generic customer service, cold calling, or seller texting alone does not replace direct-to-agent SMS experience.
- Excellent written English and reading comprehension: concise, conversational replies that fit the actual message and sound like a knowledgeable acquisitions team member. You must adapt beyond scripts without needing the owner to draft routine responses.
- Ability to manage multiple live conversations without losing context or overlooking follow-ups.
- Practical understanding of ARV, sold comps, repair estimates, holding and selling costs, and investor profit margins.
- Confidence using a CRM or SMS platform, Slack, Google Sheets, and online property research tools. Smarter Contact experience is a strong advantage.
- Good judgment: research routine questions independently, recognize exceptions, and escalate with a recommendation.
- Reliable computer, stable internet, backup connectivity and power, and consistent availability during the agreed shift.
- Confidential handling of company contacts, lead information, documents, and business processes.
How success is measured
Success means timely replies, accurate qualification, useful deal analysis, clean Slack submissions, completed follow-ups, and opportunities progressing toward signed contracts. You will contribute to our company goal of 10 contracts per month. You will not be evaluated solely on raw messages sent or leads forwarded.

We expect you to take responsibility for your pipeline: know what is pending, who needs to act, and what happens next. Communicate with the care and commercial judgment you would bring to your own business, while representing your actual role accurately.
How to apply
Use the subject line APG — Acquisitions Ownership and include:
1. A specific explanation of your direct-to-agent SMS experience: who you worked for, which types of agent replies you handled, and your role in qualifying and following up on opportunities. Clearly distinguish agent outreach from seller outreach.
2. Platforms used, daily conversation volume handled, and your responsibility after a lead was sent to the owner.
3. One anonymized deal analysis showing your comps, ARV reasoning, estimated costs, and recommended offer.
4. Two short sample replies: an agent sends a property without a complete address; another says, “We already have an offer—can you beat it?” Include anonymized examples of your own two-way agent SMS conversations where available; remove names, phone numbers, and identifying property details.
5. Your availability in Eastern Time, expected compensation, start date, and backup internet/power setup.
