Recruiting Talent for Real Estate Transactions

Finding the right talent for real estate transaction roles—like coordinators and closing specialists—is about more than filling a position. These professionals keep deals on track, manage deadlines, and ensure clients and agents stay informed.

The 2024 national annual employee turnover rate for all industries combined is 10.6% compared to the national average in RE of 16.9%. How do you outperform the market or better yet, your RE competitors?

To attract the best:

• Be clear about the role: Highlight responsibilities and required skills like attention to detail, organization, and communication.

• Show growth and culture: Candidates want opportunities to learn and thrive in a supportive team.

• Tap industry networks: LinkedIn, associations, and real estate events are goldmines for hidden talent.

• Value soft skills: Handling deadlines, client expectations, and team communication is just as important as software knowledge.

• And most important, Walk your Talk, period!

  
  

In the end, great transaction talent keeps deals moving smoothly and clients happy. Recruit thoughtfully, communicate clearly, and sell the role’s impact—not just the job.

Recruiting top transaction talent isn’t just about filling a role—it’s about building a team that ensures every deal runs smoothly and clients feel supported. With clarity, culture, and a thoughtful approach, you can attract professionals who elevate your business and drive success.
