Administrative Professionals Day: Information from the Member Profile

If you are an Administrative Professional, today is your day. Thank you.

  • Eighteen percent of REALTOR® members have at least one personal assistant working for them. This is most common among managers and broker-owners to have a personal assistant. Among managers who do not sell, 27 percent have 1 personal assistant and 20 percent have more two or more assistants.
  • Personal assistants most commonly process new listings and enter them into the MLS, send mailings to clients and prospects, and place and track advertising of listings, as well as schedule listing presentations, closing, and appointments.
  • About half of personal assistants are licensed in real estate, and slightly less than half are full-time.  Members most frequently reported paying the assistant themselves, while about one-third are paid by the company. The most common compensation structure is hourly.
