Full Job Description
About Freemodel:
Freemodel is a company specializing in pre-sale home renovations, providing assistance to sellers in preparing their homes for the market more quickly and achieving higher selling prices. As a Series A startup, our team of executives brings a wealth of experience from fintech and proptech companies such as Zillow, Made, and LendingHome.
With Freemodel, homeowners are given the option to make payment after selling their home. Our purpose is to enhance their chances of maximizing profit by providing high-quality renovations managed by experts in project management who possess specialized knowledge of the local market.
Our team of Project Directors, who have chosen to collaborate with us, come from diverse backgrounds. However, they all have the ability to effectively carry out renovation projects of exceptional craftsmanship, while adhering to the specified timeline and budget constraints.
What’s in it for you?
Project Directors powered by Freemodel have the advantage of connecting with our extensive network of 80+ brokerage partners in California, Texas, and Florida. These partners consider Freemodel as their preferred presale renovation partner.
We provide the opportunity for Project Directors to establish strong connections with real estate agents, create a network of reliable subcontractors and vendors, and have the flexibility to choose the optimal number of projects to handle.
Freemodel is a licensed and insured General Contractor in all states we operate in, allowing you to independently hire subcontractors and directly supervise your work. Subcontractors are thoroughly screened and compensated by Freemodel, while being under your management. If you already have a team, they can participate in Freemodel projects once they successfully pass our screening process.
Requirements
Here’s what we are looking for:
- Experience in residential renovations and contractor and vendor management, with a focus on construction.
- Excellent communication skills are required to effectively collaborate with real estate agents, homeowners, and subcontractors throughout all phases of the project.
- Experience in project management, including the capability to manage projects from beginning to end – from initial planning, defining the scope of work, creating architectural designs, obtaining permits, overseeing labor and materials procurement, and conducting final walk-throughs.
- Proficiency in project management/productivity software, with a preference for Google Workspace and Apple products.
You resonate with:
- You are a professional and self-motivated individual who excels at managing and organizing your own schedule.
- Your superpower lies in efficiently executing a series of simultaneous and dependent tasks in order to complete a task promptly and within the allocated budget.
- You have ample industry experience and numerous professional opportunities; you desire a business ally to avoid navigating the journey alone.
- You desire the freedom to independently oversee your projects, while still craving assistance with deal flow, back-office responsibilities, and financing.
- You thrive on the excitement and satisfaction that comes from skillfully assembling the various elements of a renovation project until the desired outcome is achieved.
- As a project manager, it is in your DNA to have an inherent motivation to diligently carry out your responsibilities and achieve the ultimate objective of ensuring customer satisfaction.
- You value the chance to connect and engage with fellow renovators within a community setting.
- You are the kind of professional who establishes long-term relationships with customers and experiences repeat business.
Benefits
The Perks of Being a Freemodeler:
- Expand your services to reach a wider range of sellers: our process offers options for invoice or deferred payment (homeowners have the flexibility to pay when the home sells) and does not require a minimum income to be approved.
- Utilize our software for effortless management of your project expenses.
- Enhance your portfolio by working on Freemodel projects. Our marketing team develops engaging case studies from the projects you successfully finish, which will be valuable additions to your portfolio. Seize the opportunity to leverage PR avenues and social media highlights to promote your skills and advance your business.
- Freemodel takes care of prequalifying projects for you, supporting your deal flow, and providing back-office and financing services.
- Project Directors powered by Freemodel have the choice to collaborate with either the network of licensed and insured subcontractors that have been vetted by Freemodel or to have their preferred licensed and insured subcontractors vetted.
- Compensation Details: This role is a contract position (1099) without benefits. Compensation will be determined by the number and scope of the contracted projects. Project Directors who are supported by Freemodel will receive 50% of the profits from each renovation project they successfully complete.
Inclusion Statement:
At Freemodel, we firmly believe that having diverse perspectives will enhance our team, our product, and our overall business. We make it a priority to recognize the value in each individual's unique story, background, and outlook. While we understand that work should not consume our entire lives, we believe that if we are dedicating this much effort, the mission should be meaningful and we should be surrounded by a culture of continuous learning. We are excited for you to join our team!
