About HOMEstretch
Selling a home can feel overwhelming. HOMEstretch helps homeowners and Realtors simplify the process by identifying the cosmetic improvements that will have the greatest impact and coordinating the work needed to get the home market-ready. We make preparing a home for sale easier, less stressful, and more successful.

What You’ll Do

- Schedule and give presentations while representing HOMEstretch at Realtor offices, networking events, and community events.
- Become a trusted resource by learning HOMEstretch’s services and helping homeowners and Realtors create a practical game plan before listing with simple cosmetic updates for a home.
- Maintain organized records of relationships, conversations, and opportunities in our CRM.
- Track relationship-building activity and results while working with leadership to strengthen our business development efforts.
- Bring forward ideas and opportunities that can strengthen Realtor relationships, generate referrals, and help move the business forward.
You May Be a Great Fit If You…
- Feel energized by meeting new people and naturally look for common ground.
- Are comfortable initiating conversations by phone and in person, even when you have not met someone before.
- Enjoy networking, community events, presentations, and relationship-building.
- Listen well, ask thoughtful questions, and enjoy helping people solve problems.
- Bring ideas and initiative instead of waiting to be told every next step.
- Are organized, dependable, and consistent with follow-up and CRM updates.
- Are coachable, self-motivated, and accountable for your results.
- Enjoy working independently while contributing to a close-knit team.
Experience That Could Translate Well
Relevant experience may come from business development, account management, hospitality, senior living, community outreach, property management, event coordination, customer relations, consultative sales, or another relationship-focused role.
