Case Study: Remote Operations Support Staff

Real estate companies deal with dozens of small tasks every day — from updating listings to scheduling appointments. These jobs are important but take time away from agents. In this case study, you’ll see how Zedtreeo helped a busy real estate agency hire remote operations support staff. As a result, they saved time, reduced mistakes, and stayed focused on growing their sales.

Client Profile

The client is a real estate agency operating in multiple metro areas across the U.S. They handle residential and commercial listings, but struggled with admin work such as CRM updates, property scheduling, and email follow-ups.

Challenges Faced

Too much admin work

Agents were spending hours on emails, data entry, and calendar updates.

Missed showings and appointments

Without clear reminders, some meetings were forgotten or double-booked.

Outdated CRM records

Lead follow-ups and status updates were often delayed or incomplete.

Hiring new staff was expensive

Local assistants cost more than the company could afford.

No backup during busy periods

During high-demand months, the team couldn’t keep up.
