Your Opportunity
Getting started in real estate can feel very different once you move from studying the business to actually working with clients.
EO&A is looking for a Real Estate Showing Assistant who wants to gain hands-on experience working with buyers while learning alongside experienced real estate professionals.
This opportunity is a good fit for someone who is newly licensed or actively working toward their California real estate license and wants a structured path into the business. Once licensed, you'll support agents on the EO&A team by coordinating and conducting property showings, communicating with buyers, learning local inventory, and helping provide a professional client experience.
Candidates who are currently working toward their California real estate license are welcome to apply. An active California real estate license is required before performing Showing Assistant duties.
Responsibilities
Once licensed and eligible to perform Showing Assistant duties, you will:
- Coordinate and conduct property showings for buyers working with EO&A agents
- Communicate with buyers before, during, and after property tours
- Help organize showing schedules and property itineraries
- Learn about each buyer's needs and priorities and communicate relevant feedback to the lead agent
- Develop knowledge of local inventory, neighborhoods, and market activity
- Provide prompt, professional follow-up after showings
- Maintain accurate client notes and updates in the team's CRM
- Communicate regularly with lead agents about buyer activity and feedback
- Attend inspections and other buyer appointments when appropriate
- Learn how experienced agents guide buyers through the home-search and purchase process
- Participate in training, coaching, role-play, and accountability
- Develop the communication, organization, and client-service skills needed to grow in real estate
Requirements
We're looking for someone who:
- Holds an active California real estate license or is actively working toward obtaining one
- Understands that an active California real estate license is required before performing Showing Assistant duties
- Is serious about developing a career in real estate
- Enjoys working with people and providing a high level of client service

- Has reliable transportation
- Is comfortable driving to properties and meeting clients for appointments once licensed

- Works well as part of a team
Previous real estate production experience isn't required. We're looking for someone who is willing to learn, practice, and consistently develop their skills.
What You Can Expect From EO&A
There's a lot about working with buyers that can't be learned from a licensing course.
How do you prepare for a day of showings? What should you know about the properties before meeting a buyer? How do you communicate professionally with an active client? What information should you bring back to the lead agent?
Those skills develop through training and real-world experience.
At EO&A, you'll have access to:
- Hands-on experience working with active buyers once licensed
- Opportunities to learn alongside experienced real estate agents
- Coaching, training, and accountability
- Scripts and opportunities to practice client conversations
- Established systems for client communication and follow-up
- CRM and real estate technology
- Opportunities to develop stronger local market knowledge
- Exposure to different properties, neighborhoods, and buyer situations
- Support as you develop your communication and client-service skills
- A collaborative team environment
- A potential path toward a full-production real estate role
- Revenue-sharing opportunities
- Health insurance opportunities
- Equity participation opportunities
- Vesting and investment opportunities
Our goal is to give you the opportunity to learn how the business works, gain practical experience, and develop the skills needed to continue growing your real estate career.
Compensation & Licensing
This is a commission-based real estate position. There is no hourly wage or base salary.
An active California real estate license is required before performing Showing Assistant duties and participating in transaction-related activities associated with this position.
Once licensed, agents are responsible for maintaining their California real estate license and for any applicable professional expenses, including but not limited to membership in the appropriate local REALTOR® association/board and Multiple Listing Service (MLS).
Specific commission terms and eligibility will be discussed as part of the hiring process.
If you're newly licensed, or actively working toward your California real estate license, and want an opportunity to learn the business, gain hands-on experience, and grow alongside an established real estate team, we'd like to hear from you.
