The Opportunity
Global Residential helps international buyers invest in carefully selected property opportunities in Athens and Cyprus, including properties that may provide a route toward European residency through qualifying Golden Visa programmes.
We are looking for a highly driven International Property Sales Executive to speak with prospective buyers in the South African market.
This is a telephone-based sales role. You will be calling new and existing leads, understanding their motivations, qualifying their financial position, presenting suitable property opportunities and guiding serious buyers through the sales process.
You will be selling more than property. For many clients, the underlying motivation will be greater freedom, international mobility, family security, European residency or creating a long-term plan outside South Africa.
You must be able to uncover that motivation and help the prospect make a confident, informed decision.
This is not a passive account-management role. It requires energy, resilience, consistent follow-up and a willingness to spend a significant part of every working day on the telephone.
What You Will Be Doing
- Making a high volume of outbound calls to prospective property buyers.
- Responding quickly to new leads generated through our marketing campaigns.
- Re-engaging older leads who have previously expressed an interest.
- Building rapport and uncovering the emotional and financial reasons behind each enquiry.
- Qualifying buyers based on their objectives, available investment funds, timescale and decision-making process.
- Explaining relevant property opportunities in Athens and Cyprus.
- Communicating the potential lifestyle, investment and residency benefits clearly and accurately.
- Conducting telephone and video-based property consultations.
- Handling objections confidently without becoming aggressive or overly scripted.
- Following up consistently through telephone, email and WhatsApp.
- Progressing suitable buyers from initial conversation through to reservation and purchase.
- Maintaining accurate notes, follow-up dates and opportunity stages within the CRM.
- Working closely with our property, and management teams.
- Achieving agreed activity, appointment, reservation and sales targets
- Keeping up to date with the properties being offered and the relevant Golden Visa routes.
You will receive appropriate information and training about the developments and residency programmes. However, you will not provide legal, immigration, financial or tax advice. Specialist questions must be referred to the appropriate qualified professional.
Who We Are Looking For
The right person will be:
- Degree educated, or able to demonstrate an exceptional record of sales performance.
- Based in South Africa.
- Exceptionally well spoken in English, with confident and professional telephone communication.
- Familiar with the motivations and concerns of affluent South African buyers.
- Experienced in property sales, investment sales or another considered high-value purchase.
- Experienced in telephone sales, outbound prospecting and working with colder leads.
- Comfortable speaking with high-net-worth individuals and senior professionals.
- Highly presentable and professional on video calls.
- Persuasive without being pushy.
- Emotionally intelligent and able to build trust quickly.
- Resilient when dealing with rejection, objections and unanswered calls.
- Motivated by targets, commission and measurable performance.
- Disciplined enough to complete repetitive activity consistently.
- Organised and persistent with follow-up.
- Comfortable using CRM systems, automated diallers, email and WhatsApp.
- Able to work independently in a remote environment.
- Equipped with reliable internet, a professional home-working environment and backup power.
Experience selling international property, residency programmes, investments, financial services or other high-value products would be particularly valuable.
The Reality of the Role
We want applicants to understand the nature of the position before applying.
There will be days when you have excellent conversations and generate significant commission. There will also be days when people do not answer, say they are not interested or ask you to contact them at another time.
Success will come from maintaining the same energy, professionalism and work rate regardless of yesterday’s result.
You must enjoy speaking with people, but you must also be comfortable with the discipline of “smiling and dialling” every day.
We are not looking for someone who needs to be continually motivated, reminded to follow up or encouraged to make their calls. We are looking for somebody with a strong personal work ethic who takes responsibility for their own performance.
How Success Will Be Measured
Your performance will be measured using clear indicators, including:
- Outbound calls completed.
- Meaningful prospect conversations.
- Speed of response to new leads
- Qualified appointments or consultations
- Follow-up activity completed.
- Reservations and property sales.
- Conversion rates through each stage of the pipeline.
- Quality and accuracy of CRM records.
- Revenue generated.
