About The Position

Redfin is hiring an Associate Agent to work with customers on a flexible schedule and earn money in real estate without closing transactions. The role involves field events such as showing homes, hosting open houses, and attending inspections. Agents set their own hours and control their workload, with customer opportunities especially on weekends. There is no sales pressure, contract work with customers, or responsibility for closings. The work is performed remotely in the field, with no office visits required. Free, optional educational services are available to help agents grow their skills. Compensation is a flat-rate payment per field event as an independent contractor. Applicants must hold a real estate license in the state where they will work and be willing to affiliate their license exclusively with Redfin. They must also have or be willing to obtain a smartphone, laptop, and GPS; join the local MLS and Realtor Association; and have reliable transportation and the ability to travel within their market. The hiring process begins with an application, followed by a video screen for applicants who meet minimum qualifications. A recruiter will provide next steps if an opening is available in the applicant’s area; otherwise, Redfin may retain the applicant’s information and follow up when new contract opportunities arise. Redfin conducts background screening for this role in accordance with applicable law and considers qualified applicants with criminal record histories.
