Land Acquisition Manager

We are looking for someone with Real Estate Sales knowledge, who is EXCITED to generate leads, able to find buyers and negotiate with sellers and get on the phone!

At Geoland Properties, we buy and sell land all over the United States. This position would be working on the “Acquisitions” side of our business. Our process goes a little like this…we text, call and mail owners of land and offer to buy their property. We are looking for great deals – specifically deals where owners would like to sell their property for less than 50% of market value. We then market these properties on various different sites and sell directly to buyers.

We are a new company who is learning and growing. We're looking for someone to add value by finding areas to invest/buy properties and also marketing and finding retail and corporate buyers. Someone who will suggest new strategies for finding areas and buyers.

This is the first part of your job. You would be heat mapping new areas to possibly buy land. Once we agree on an area, you'd be sending texts, managing inbound text messages, making cold calls and doing some basic research on properties. You'd also be doing some basic comping and negotiation. You'd also be finding buyers in that area: Calling development companies and realtors to find corporate buyers.

This role will be the first point of contact for any new seller leads that come through the pipeline. The purpose of this role is to generate leads and qualify for those leads. You'd also provide support and initial research/due diligence on the property for our property specialist.
