Reasons You Need a Transaction Coordinator
As a busy real estate agent, you may have trouble keeping up with all the paperwork that goes along with selling a lot of properties. Managing the transaction coordination is especially time-consuming and stressful.
Here are some reasons you may need to hire an experienced transaction coordinator:
If you don’t have enough hours in the day.
The 8-10 hours a day that you would spend working on one closing could be spent on lead generation, taking a new listing or working with a buyer. These are the most important activities for any real estate agent. Working with a transaction coordinator will free your schedule so that you can spend your time doing what you do best.
If you can’t check your email or return phone calls before 10 PM.
For the most part, Title Company employees work an 8-hour day and can’t be reached after 5 pm. A transaction coordinator communicates with the Title Company; follows the numerous details, deadlines, and dates; prevents items from falling through the cracks and ensures things are done in a timely manner. Having one point of contact allows the information to funnel through one source and provide excellent customer service to your buyers and sellers.
If administrative work is not your thing.
Salespeople usually have great interpersonal skills but can’t stand spending time in the office with administrative details. If setting up a closing time and location only to have someone change their availability before the ink is dry on your calendar entry makes you want to scream, it might be time to consider hiring a transaction coordinator.
If the thought of hiring an in-office staff member scares you.
A transaction coordinator is paid a flat rate for each closing. If your closings are up then down, you only pay for the work needed. You do not need to worry about keeping an assistant busy when there is little work. You also don’t need the added overhead costs of having an in-house employee. When you work with a virtual assistant who specializes in transaction coordination, you only pay for the time you need.
If you don’t have time to train someone.
Usually, when an agent needs to hire someone to help them with their business, they are so busy they do not have the time to train anyone. Hiring someone who specializes and has been trained in transaction coordination alleviates the time-consuming training process. A quick orientation to learn how you handle your files is all that is needed.
