> Scale Virtually · Philippines (Remote) · — · Posted 2026-04-09

**Workplace:** remote

**Department:** Service Delivery Department

## Description

We are looking for Virtual Professionals based in the Philippines.  
This is a fully remote position for the role of **Virtual Real Estate Underwriter / Acquisitions Analyst (Remote, PH Time).**

-   Applications with an introduction video attached will be prioritized.  
    Due to the fully remote nature of this role, it is important that candidates are comfortable communicating on video calls.

### Role Summary

You are the gatekeeper of deal quality for our Austin, TX single-family and small multifamily acquisitions.

You actively source, scrub, underwrite, and coordinate deals, ensuring only high-quality opportunities reach ownership for final decisions.

You operate independently, quickly identifying missing data or disqualifying deals, and orchestrate the full analysis pipeline alongside our Acquisitions Lead.

Filtering signal: This role is not for candidates who treat underwriting as clerical or wait to be told what to do.

### Core Responsibilities

MLS Monitoring & Market Intelligence

-   Scrub the Austin-area MLS daily to identify properties within our buy box
-   Maintain a watchlist of overpriced properties that may become viable
-   Track price reductions and market trends; recommend optimal offer timing
-   Surface opportunities proactively; do not wait for leads to be assigned

Deal Intake & Initial Scrub

-   Review and classify all inbound opportunities (agents, wholesalers, on/off-market)
-   Categorize deals as Pass, Keep (needs more info), or Escalate (requires immediate attention)
-   Maintain accurate, up-to-date tracking systems and adapt templates as needed

Underwriting & Pro Forma Development

-   Gather property, comparable, rental, and market data; identify information gaps
-   Build and maintain deal pro formas using provided models; calculate MAO and cash-on-cash returns
-   Evaluate multiple exit strategies (flip, BRRRR hold, ADU/DADU, condo sale)
-   Update underwriting continuously as new data comes in
-   Present clear investment recommendations with supporting rationale

Deal Orchestration & Coordination

-   Coordinate underwriting once a deal shows potential
-   Schedule property walkthroughs and coordinate inspections with the Acquisitions Lead
-   Collect and verify photos, videos, and property condition reports
-   Prepare complete, organized deal packages ready for ownership review

Data Management & Organization

-   Maintain clean, version-controlled deal files in Google Sheets, Smartsheet, Dropbox, and MLS
-   Create new tracking sheets or templates as needed

Agent & Wholesaler Communication

-   Serve as first point of contact for inbound deals
-   Collect critical information and maintain professional relationships
-   Defer all negotiations and offer discussions to the Acquisitions Lead
-   Communicate clearly and quickly; response time matters in competitive deal flow

### Requirements (Non-Negotiable)

-   3+ years hands-on US real estate underwriting experience (single-family & small multifamily, value-add focus)
-   Proven ability to independently make Pass/Keep/Escalate recommendations
-   Deep understanding of ARV analysis, comps, investor buy boxes, pro formas, and deal math
-   Advanced proficiency with Google Sheets or Excel
-   Strong understanding of US residential real estate financing structures and terminology
-   Able to identify missing data, flag non-viable deals, and drive deals from lead to final analysis independently

### Tools

-   MLS (access provided)
-   Google Sheets, Smartsheet
-   Dropbox, Google Drive
-   Zillow, Redfin, county records
-   Additional real estate research platforms as needed

### What We Actually Care About

-   You actively identify gaps and disqualify weak deals before they reach decision-makers
-   You maintain an organized, version-controlled deal pipeline
-   You proactively monitor MLS and market trends to source opportunities
-   You provide actionable, justified underwriting recommendations
-   You communicate clearly and promptly with agents, wholesalers, and internal teams

### What This Role Is NOT

-   A data-entry or passive tracking position
-   A role for candidates who need step-by-step direction for every deal
-   Responsible for negotiating deals or handling offers directly
-   Suitable for someone uncomfortable analyzing small-scale residential investments

### Position Details

-   Hours: Full-time, PH time zone; remote
-   Structure: Long-term hire; performance-driven, high accountability
-   Environment: Fast-paced, results-oriented, requires independent decision-making

### Application Instructions

-   Submit a 1–2 page case study analysis of a property:

-   Identify missing information and how you would obtain it
-   Build a pro forma with your recommended MAO and projected cash-on-cash return
-   Provide a clear Pass/Keep/Escalate recommendation with justification

### Benefits

-   Paid Time Off (PTO)
-   HMO
-   Fully Remote Work
