Why Your Next Best Hire Might Be Thousands of Miles Away

Let’s face it: the way we do business has changed.


Gone are the days when hiring someone meant finding talent just down the street or in the same zip code. Today, many real estate professionals are discovering that their most reliable, resourceful, and efficient team member could be thousands of miles away—working remotely from the Philippines.


At Summit VA Solutions, we specialize in connecting real estate professionals with highly skilled virtual assistants (VAs). And here’s why this setup works so well.


Real Talent Knows No Boundaries

The best person for the job doesn’t have to be in your office or even your country. Our VAs are trained specifically for the real estate industry. They’re familiar with CRMs, MLS systems, transaction coordination, lead generation, appointment setting, social media marketing, and more.


Case in point:
One of our clients, a busy real estate broker in Texas, was drowning in paperwork and losing track of follow-ups. After hiring one of a VA from the Summit, she was able to focus back on listing presentations and closings while her VA handled emails, client updates, and marketing materials. All seamlessly, even from across the globe.


Working with a VA Isn’t a Compromise. It’s a Smart Strategy

There’s a common misconception that hiring a remote VA means sacrificing quality or communication. That couldn’t be further from the truth. Our Virtual Assistants are fluent in English, college-educated, and trained to work within your timezone and schedule. With tools like Zoom, Slack, Google Workspace, Teams, and Trello, collaboration feels just like working with someone in the next room.


Why Real Estate Pros Love Working with Summit VAs

  • Time Zone Flexibility: Our VAs adjust to your hours, not the other way around. Need someone to handle client messages while you’re out at a showing? Done.
  • Cultural Compatibility: The Philippines has a strong affinity with Western culture. That means great communication, excellent service mindset, and professionalism.
  • Cost-Efficient Without Cutting Corners: You get highly skilled support at a fraction of the cost of hiring in-house—without sacrificing quality.


The Results Speak for Themselves

We’ve seen clients close more deals, improve client experience, and get their work-life balance back simply by delegating the right tasks to the right Virtual Assistant. Imagine focusing solely on nurturing relationships and closing sales, while your VA handles your database updates, social media posts, listing paperwork, and even birthday greetings to your clients.


Let’s help you get your time back and grow your business with a virtual assistant who works just as hard as you do.
