Protect the client experience

Every closing depends on hundreds of small, timely actions.

When transaction work lacks a clear owner, deadlines become harder to see, documents remain incomplete, clients ask for updates, and agents spend valuable time chasing administrative details.

A Vitalis remote transaction coordinator works from approved checklists, systems, permissions, and escalation rules. The goal is a visible, repeatable process from executed contract through closing and final file completion.

Transaction support deliverables

A disciplined system for contract-to-close coordination.

The exact scope follows the brokerage, market, transaction type, software, client procedures, and applicable licensing rules.

01 / FILE SETUP

Contract Intake

Receive the executed agreement, create the transaction record, capture key dates, organize parties, and build the approved checklist.

02 / DOCUMENTS

Document Coordination

Track required administrative documents, signatures, amendments, receipts, and file-completion items using authorized systems.

03 / DEADLINES

Timeline Management

Maintain contingency dates, reminders, appointments, milestones, and escalation points without making licensed decisions.

04 / UPDATES

Client Communication

Send approved status updates, reminders, appointment details, and requests while routing substantive questions to the agent.

05 / MLS

MLS Coordination

Support authorized status changes, data checks, document uploads, and closing updates as permitted by brokerage and market rules.

06 / CLOSEOUT

Closing Handoff

Confirm administrative completion, organize the final file, update systems, support review requests, and prepare post-closing follow-up.

The transaction workflow

Clear ownership from signed contract to completed file.

Vitalis trains the transaction coordinator on the client’s checklist, systems, communication standards, and approval boundaries before ongoing execution.

01 / OPEN

Review intake

Verify that the file was received, create records, capture dates, and identify missing administrative information.

02 / MAP

Build the timeline

Enter approved milestones, assign tasks, schedule reminders, and document responsible parties.

03 / COORDINATE

Move tasks forward

Follow up on documents, appointments, inspections, title or closing details, and authorized updates.

04 / ESCALATE

Protect decisions

Route negotiation, interpretation, compliance concerns, and exceptions to the appropriate licensed professional.

05 / CLOSE

Complete the handoff

Confirm approved completion items, organize the record, update statuses, and archive the final file.

Visibility and accountability

Agents stay informed without managing every detail.

A transaction coordinator should reduce uncertainty, not create another person to supervise. Vitalis helps establish daily priorities, reporting expectations, exception handling, and ongoing performance support.

Reporting can be tailored to the brokerage’s systems and may include active-file status, upcoming deadlines, missing items, client updates, escalations, and completed closings.

Administrative tasks may include

  • Entering dates and information into approved systems
  • Organizing documents and tracking signatures
  • Scheduling appointments and sending approved reminders
  • Providing factual status updates from the transaction record
  • Coordinating authorized MLS and closing administration

Licensed or authorized tasks remain internal

  • Interpreting contracts or providing legal advice
  • Negotiating price, repairs, terms, or concessions
  • Advising clients on substantive transaction decisions
  • Performing activity reserved for licensees in that jurisdiction
  • Approving compliance, financial, brokerage, or legal decisions

Important: Permitted activities vary by state, province, brokerage, MLS, and transaction type. The client is responsible for defining local requirements, permissions, supervision, and escalation procedures before work begins.

Frequently asked questions

Transaction coordination, made clearer.

The engagement begins by defining the checklist, systems, transaction volume, market requirements, and supervision model.

What does a transaction coordinator virtual assistant do?

A transaction coordinator virtual assistant supports approved contract-to-close administration, including file setup, document tracking, deadlines, appointment coordination, client updates, system records, MLS support, and closing handoffs.

Can an unlicensed transaction coordinator discuss contracts?

An unlicensed coordinator should not interpret contracts, provide legal advice, negotiate terms, or perform work reserved for licensed professionals. Exact boundaries vary by jurisdiction, brokerage, MLS, and transaction type.

Can the coordinator communicate with clients and other parties?

Yes, using approved templates, factual transaction information, documented procedures, and escalation rules. Questions requiring advice, interpretation, negotiation, or professional judgment must be routed to the authorized person.

Can the coordinator update the MLS?

MLS support may be included when permitted by local rules, brokerage policy, the user’s authorization, and the engagement’s defined permissions. The client must approve the exact workflow.

Which transaction systems can the assistant use?

Vitalis can recruit and train around the client’s authorized CRM, transaction management platform, document system, calendar, email, task manager, and reporting tools.

Does Vitalis train and manage the transaction coordinator?

Yes. Vitalis supports role definition, recruiting, five-step vetting, matching, systems training, reporting, coaching, accountability, and ongoing performance development.
