Real Estate Sales Manager Job Description

- The main responsibility of real estate sales managers is to motivate their agents to close sales. Managers develop effective training programs that teach agents how to acquire customers, negotiate deals, secure financing and complete paperwork for the sale. After training, managers set weekly, monthly and yearly monetary goals for the agents to achieve.

- These goals are tracked through sales meetings that are conducted by the manager. During the meeting, sales managers discuss whether or not the sales team, as a whole, is meeting goals. If the goals are not met, sales managers offer advice and motivation. Sales managers may offer incentives and reward teams that reach their goals.

Daily Duties

- Besides supervising sales agents, real estate sales managers also perform human resources duties, such as conducting interviews, hiring new staff and transferring or dismissing seasoned staff. They also prepare employee payroll, budget and inventory reports.

- Marketing roles may include planning, budgeting and coordinating open houses or other initiatives to develop new leads and increase sales for the office.

- Sales managers may perform administrative duties and issue supplies or equipment when needed.

- Occasionally they attend association meetings to receive the latest information on housing regulations and legislation that affects the industry.
