The work

Tasks this hire takes

A virtual assistant for buyers agents searches stock, books inspections and keeps the shortlist.

The buyers agent still advises and negotiates.

Two jobs shape a normal week for buyers agents: Pull new listings against the brief, and book inspections the agent will attend. Firms hire for that rhythm, not for an empty inbox.

  • Pull new listings against the brief

  • Book inspections the agent will attend

  • Update the shortlist with the facts the agent asked for

  • Chase contracts for the agent to read

  • Diary auction and offer deadlines

Pull new listings against the brief. For buyers agents, that work sits beside Rex, Agentbox or the portal alerts. The principal still makes the call above it.

Book inspections the agent will attend. Ask each finalist for buyers agents when they last did this, and whether they did it in Rex, Agentbox or the portal alerts.

The brief for buyers agents should treat this as a standing job: update the shortlist with the facts the agent asked for. Rex, Agentbox or the portal alerts is where the office checks it.

Chase contracts for the agent to read. If the hire has not used Rex, Agentbox or the portal alerts, the first month for buyers agents includes learning it, and the principal still reviews the output.

Diary auction and offer deadlines. For buyers agents, write down what done looks like, and who is told when it is finished.

Day one

Software in the brief

Name Rex, Agentbox or the portal alerts in the brief for buyers agents when the hire will use it in the first week.

Say whether A shortlist sheet with the brief filters is required on day one for buyers agents, or taught after the start.

A short task in A calendar for inspections can be part of the interview for buyers agents, if you want to see the work.

You grant access to The offer checklist the agent owns. For buyers agents, the hire should have that login before week two.

  • Rex, Agentbox or the portal alerts

  • A shortlist sheet with the brief filters

  • A calendar for inspections

  • The offer checklist the agent owns

The line

Compliance boundary

The hire does not recommend a purchase or negotiate a price.

For buyers agents, the interview repeats the boundary above. The hire should be able to say what they will not decide.

The first 90 days

  1. 01

    Days 1 to 30 for buyers agents are for learning Rex, Agentbox or the portal alerts and the way the office already hands work across.

  2. 02

    By day 60 this should be routine for buyers agents: Update the shortlist with the facts the agent asked for.

  3. 03

    The day-90 review asks one question for buyers agents: is “Diary auction and offer deadlines” happening without you chasing it?

What we ask before we search

  • On the call for buyers agents, we ask who does this today: pull new listings against the brief.
  • We ask which of these the hire for buyers agents must open on day one: Rex, Agentbox or the portal alerts, A shortlist sheet with the brief filters, A calendar for inspections.
  • For buyers agents, we ask you to say the line a new starter must not cross.

Shared hours are written into the brief for buyers agents before anyone is approached.
