Description

Real Estate Agent

Position: Real Estate Agent — Luxury STR Investment Specialist
Company: Home Team Luxury Realty (HTLR), part of The Rise Collective
Role type: Independent Contractor (1099) where HTLR is licensed (see ‘Locations’); Referral Partner Agent in other states
Reports to: VP of Brokerage / Market Leadership
Company overview:Home Team Luxury Realty is an STR-focused luxury brokerage supporting investors acquiring and selling short-term rental properties nationwide through a networked model of in-brokerage agents and referral partners. HTLR operates alongside other Rise Collective brands that support the STR investor journey (education, acquisition support, and related services).
Role summary:The Real Estate Agent is responsible for delivering a high-trust, high-urgency client experience to STR investors. This role requires strong contract execution, STR-specific diligence awareness, and consultative guidance on market risk factors that impact short-term rental viability.

Why This Opportunity Is Different:
We provide consistent, high-quality investor leads through our national ecosystem. The agents within our ecosystem have produced $20M annually in their local market from company-generated investor leads alone. You are not building from scratch — you are plugging into a proven investor acquisition engine. This is not a traditional brokerage environment. We are building a specialized STR investment platform with high standards and high upside.

We’re building a high-performing agent roster in multiple territories to serve STR investor demand.

Locations:

• We are actively recruiting agents to join our brokerage in the following states:
  • High Priority:
    • Poconos, Pennsylvania (PA)
    • Broken Bow, Oklahoma (OK)
    • Blue Ridge Mountains, Georgia (GA)
    • Sevierville Area, Tennessee (TN)
    • Greater West Palm Beach, Florida (FL)
    • Hocking Hills, Ohio (OH)
    • Indianapolis, Indiana (IN)
  • Lower Priority
    • Asheville, North Carolina (NC)
    • San Antonio, Texas (TX)
• All other states: We are onboarding referral partner agents in targeted STR markets. Agents who consistently close investor transactions may have the opportunity to transition into a leadership role if/when we launch a brokerage entity in their state.

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

• Want to become the go-to STR investor agent in your market (not a generalist).
• Know how to consult on regulations, permitting, zoning/HOA risk, and investment performance — and you can explain it clearly to buyers.
• Move fast, follow a process, and keep deals tight from offer to close.
• Want to plug into a brand ecosystem with investor demand and long-term growth upside.
  
  

Performance expectations: This role is designed for agents who want to produce $10M–$20M annually with structured investor demand.

• Speed-to-lead, consult completion rate, offer-to-close execution quality
• Client satisfaction and repeat/referral outcomes
• Compliance adherence and clean file management
  
  

Compensation:Commission-based; structure varies by market and role (HTLR agent vs referral partner).

• Escalate legal/regulatory questions to the appropriate professional and document guidance provided

• Maintain professional communication standards and responsiveness
