Start with applicant enquiry administration, viewing scheduling, and pre-tenancy document follow-up. Keep approvals, exceptions, and specialist judgment with the right internal owner while the Lettings Administration Virtual Assistant handles the repeatable work.
Start by giving applicant enquiry administration and viewing scheduling one owner, one source of truth, and a clear definition of done.
Document how property and applicant CRM updates and referencing follow-up move between people and tools so handoffs do not disappear into chat.
Use repair administration and move-in checklist administration to keep completed work, exceptions, and next actions visible to the team.
List the recurring tasks, bottlenecks, tools, response times, and approvals. That is usually enough to define the first version of the role.
For UK letting agencies and estate agencies, the strongest Lettings Administration setup is usually a defined operating role rather than a loose list of errands. The client owns the process and decisions; the Virtual Assistant owns the recurring execution that has been clearly delegated.
Anchor the role to the transaction, listing, property, or lead record your team already uses. Define response-time expectations and make every open item visible so follow-up is not trapped in personal inboxes.
Dates, contact details, property information, document status, and next actions need consistent checking. Real-estate admin works best when every handoff leaves a timestamped note and a clear owner.
Licensed representation, negotiations, trust-account activity, legal interpretations, and decisions reserved to agents, brokers, property managers, or other licensed professionals remain with them.
Keep the first month narrow enough to review properly. Add scope only after the original workflow is accurate and predictable.
Start with applicant enquiry administration, viewing scheduling, and pre-tenancy document follow-up. Give the Virtual Assistant examples of good completed work, access only to the systems needed for those tasks, and a short daily check-in while the process is still new.
Once the basics are consistent, add property and applicant CRM updates and referencing follow-up. Ask the Virtual Assistant to document recurring questions and turn repeat answers into a checklist or SOP instead of relying on chat history.
By the end of the first month, review whether applicant enquiry administration, viewing scheduling, pre-tenancy document follow-up are running consistently, exceptions are recorded instead of hidden, and the remaining decisions that need your input are clearly documented.
Do not combine applicant enquiry administration, viewing scheduling, and unrelated specialist work into one role without setting priorities.
Do not hand over full Reapit access on day one. Give the minimum permissions applicant enquiry administration actually needs, and widen it as the work proves out.
Do not judge this role on activity counts. For Lettings Administration work, accuracy on viewing scheduling and the state of unresolved exceptions matter far more than hours logged.
For the first month, review a few measures that tell you whether the work is dependable. The exact targets should come from your own workload and service standards.
Software familiarity matters, but process judgment matters more. Ask candidates to explain what they completed inside the tool, how they checked accuracy, and what they escalated.
