Residential Real Estate Sales Agent
Salary not disclosed

Who We Are

We’re a Pasadena-based real estate team designed for full-time agents who want to stop guessing and start growing.


We exist for people who crave coaching, thrive under accountability, and understand that momentum comes from structure—not luck, leads, or “hustle vibes.”


We don’t attract everyone.

We attract the ones who can be coached, who want to learn, and who want to run a real business instead of waking up every day trying to figure out what to do next.


What We Offer

Real Opportunity, Not Just Leads


We put you in the room with actual buyers and sellers. You won’t be refreshing your inbox hoping someone fills out a form—you’ll be talking to people who are ready to take action. Execution becomes the separator.


Brand & Marketing That Creates Leverage

We don’t hand you templates and tell you “good luck.” We teach you how to build awareness, authority, and trust—so your name means something in the market. Your reputation becomes an asset instead of a slogan.


Coaching That Builds Professionals

We give you the tools to win:

  • Follow-up frameworks
  • Conversion systems
  • Client experience standards
  • The habits that compound


This is training that makes you better, not just busier.


A Culture Built on Accountability

  • We don’t babysit.
  • We don’t make excuses.
  • We chase standards.


Everyone here pushes, supports, and competes together.


If you show up, we show up with you.

Who Thrives Here

  • You’re licensed (or finishing) and committed to going full-time
  • You want direction more than “motivation.”
  • You respect follow-up and don’t fear hard conversations
  • You believe relationships outlast transactions
  • You want a career you can scale—not a side hustle with drama


If you’ve ever thought:

“Just give me the system, and I’ll run it." You’re our type.


Why It Works

Real estate rewards skill, consistency, and discipline— but most agents never get an environment that teaches them how to use those things.


Give a hungry agent:

  • Structure
  • A playbook
  • Real opportunity
  • and a high-performance culture

…and they don’t just succeed—they compound.

If you're tired of chasing leads and ready to build something that lasts—

step in.


We’ll show you how. Apply, and let's talk about the possibilities in your business.

Compensation:

$127,000 - $219,000 at plan earnings

Responsibilities:
  • Consistently reach out and follow-up with leads to grow sales opportunities
  • Create written purchase offers for buyer clients to create a quick and easy closing process
  • Keep up with local knowledge to answer questions clients may have about potential homes and the surrounding community
  • Meet with clients to determine their home wishlist, then meet their needs and sell them a home
  • Nurture relationships that connect with our clients to generate more sales

Qualifications:
  • Driven, self-motivated and desires professional growth
  • Great communication and social skills
  • Past sales experience is preferred
  • Show good organizational and time management skills
  • Tech savvy

  • A valid Real Estate License is required for this job
  • A full-time vehicle to serve clients and get to showings and appointments
About Company

Since teaming up in May 2012, The Berns Team has assisted over 1,300 families with their real estate needs. We create “the magic” in the sale of clients’ homes, obtaining results and revenue unparalleled by other agents. We love what we do, and it is rewarding to help clients meet all their real estate goals. We are a business following a model that is all about relationships, making our main sources of business our past clients, referrals, and those we meet through our 6-Day Blitz Marketing of our listings.

Our mission is: to influence the lives of others and assist them in their life decisions with honest, fair, and ethical dealings; to assist them in reaching and exceeding their personal and financial goals; to make a positive daily impact on our fellow team members, associates, clients, and passions; to influence the lives of others, especially children, locally and internationally through education and mentorship.
