About Pioneer Home Buyers
Founded in late 2019, Pioneer Home Buyers is one of the fastest-growing real estate investment firms in DFW. Our focus is enriching the quality of life in our communities by solving complex real estate problems for homeowners in difficult situations. We hold high expectations for one another, we take the work seriously without taking ourselves too seriously, and we're striving to be the most dominant acquisitions company in Texas.
About the Role
This is not a "smile-and-dial" lead-burning seat. The DPA Specialist owns the hardest, highest-value lane of acquisitions — Distressed Property Acquisition, marketing and sales rolled into one. You'll be first to market on niche, off-radar opportunities and cold-outreach directly to highly targeted homeowners in distress.
Because these deals carry real complexity, the role demands genuine attention to detail: the ability to research a situation, recognize distress indicators, and understand the probate/heirship dynamics and title-curative issues that determine whether a deal is real and closeable. You connect the dots others miss, then build the rapport and trust that turns a complicated situation into a signed contract.
Responsibilities
- Identify and qualify niche, first-to-market distressed leads — probate, pre-foreclosure, tax delinquency, code violations, liens, and vacant/inherited properties
- Research ownership, occupancy, and property history to confirm the right decision-maker before outreach
- Pull and review county records, deeds, and filings to verify facts and surface red flags early
- Run targeted cold outreach (call, text, mail, and in person) — you generate and own your pipeline
- Build rapport quickly with people in stressful, emotional situations; lead with empathy
- Conduct seller appointments, present offers, and negotiate win/win solutions
- Run numbers, values, and offer formulas to structure deals that protect Pioneer and serve the seller
- Overcome objections ethically to get contracts signed
- Recognize title-curative issues (heirship, probate, liens, clouds on title) and coordinate with the team to resolve them
- Keep clean, organized notes in the CRM and communicate deal status clearly
Qualifications
- Sales or customer-service experience is a must
- Strong phone, verbal, and written communication with fast rapport-building
- Sharp attention to detail and a genuine love of research and problem-solving
- Self-motivated with an ownership, "eat what you kill" mindset
- Coachable and willing to adapt to streamlined processes and systems
- Empathetic, patient, and trustworthy with sensitive seller situations
- Able to work some nights and weekends; dependable with a strong attendance record
- Preferred (not required): prior real estate, acquisitions, title, probate, or investigative research experience
- No real estate license required
Compensation Detail
- Probation / Ramp-Up (first 90 days): $1,700/month base + 7% commission
- After 90 days: Commission only — 10% starting, scaling up to 12%
The harder you work and the better you get, the more you earn — your income is in your hands.
