Job Description
THE SHORT VERSION
I'm a growing real estate and investment business owner (residential sales, fix-and-flip, a rental portfolio, and private lending) looking for someone to run the business behind the business. You won't be selling real estate. You'll be building the systems, managing the details, and holding everything together so I can focus on growth instead of chasing loose ends.

You need to live local to the Fredericksburg, VA area. This isn't remote , you won't be in an office together every day, but I need to be able to connect in person on short notice when needed.WHO YOU ARE
