Property Research Specialist

About Smooth Closing

Smooth Closing is an Austin-based real estate investment company with a simple mission: buy homes directly from homeowners in a way that's fast, fair, and respectful. We've completed over 75 purchases per year and we're growing — which means we need reliable, detail-oriented people who are proud to do their part and do it well, every single day.

The Role

This is a full-time, in-office position at our Austin, TX office. As a Property Research & Outreach Specialist, your job is focused and meaningful: research property records to identify the owners of specific homes, find the best way to reach them, and have a friendly, low-pressure conversation to see if they'd be open to a conversation about selling.

This is not a high-pressure sales role. There are no cold call quotas designed to make you scramble. Your job is to be thorough, consistent, and professional — day in and day out.

What You'll Be Doing

Your day will have a clear rhythm and structure. You'll use your computer and various research tools to locate property owners and their contact information, then reach out by phone or, in some cases, in person to introduce Smooth Closing and gauge their interest. Much of the work is systematic and process-driven — you'll get good at it quickly and settle into a routine that you can own.

You'll be working closely with our small, tight-knit team, and your contribution directly fuels the company's ability to close deals. When the team hits its goals, everyone wins — and you'll feel that.

You'll Thrive Here If You:

• Enjoy focused, structured work and don't need a lot of variety to stay engaged
• Take pride in being thorough and reliable rather than flashy or fast
• Are motivated by being a key part of a team and seeing the group succeed
• Prefer a steady, predictable paycheck over a commission-heavy rollercoaster
• Are comfortable doing similar tasks repeatedly and getting better at them over time
• Communicate in a friendly, natural way — no hard selling required
• Show up consistently and take ownership of your piece of the puzzle

What You Don't Need

No real estate experience is required. No sales background required. We'll train you on everything. What matters most is that you're dependable, coachable, and genuinely enjoy being part of something where your consistency makes a real difference.

Compensation & Schedule

This is a salaried, full-time position with a competitive base pay. The focus here is stability — we want you to know what to expect each payday so you can plan your life around it.

• Full-time, Monday–Friday
• In-office in Austin, TX
• Competitive base salary
• Part of a supportive, close-knit team

About Working at Smooth Closing

We're a small team that values people who show up, do their work well, and want to grow with the company over time. We're not looking for someone chasing the next big thing — we're looking for someone who wants to find a home on a team and build something together with us.

$60,000 - $80,000

What You’ll Actually Be Doing

This role is a mix of research, strategy, problem-solving, and in-home appointments:

You will:

• Work from our office to research and locate homeowners on small, highly targeted lists
• Strategize the best approach to reach each homeowner (this is not mass outreach)
• Meet homeowners in person at their property to understand their situation
• Present fair, win-win solutions and guide sellers through the process
• Follow up consistently and persistently until you get a clear yes or no
• Work closely with leadership and operations to get deals across the finish line

This role rewards people who enjoy the hunt, can think independently, and don’t need constant supervision to perform at a high level.

Experience Requirements

• No real estate experience required
• No sales experience required

We care far more about drive, curiosity, and work ethic than your resume. If you’re hungry to learn and willing to be coached, we’ll teach you everything you need to succeed.
