Senior Transaction Coordinator – Real Estate

Pay: Based on Experience

Your next 500 closings start here.

The Perna Team closes 800+ transactions a year across Metro Detroit with 110 agents, dedicated admin staff, and integrated title and mortgage services. We need a senior-level Transaction Coordinator who's done this before — someone who can manage files without anyone holding their hand. We don't micro manage, and only hire top tier talent.

This isn't a "learn as you go" role. This is a role for someone who already knows what a clean file looks like, can spot a problem three weeks before closing, and doesn't need to be told to follow up.

What You'll Own

• The entire contract-to-close process for buyer and seller transactions — from executed purchase agreement through recording
• Proactive deadline management across inspections, appraisals, title, financing contingencies, and HOA documents
• Direct communication with agents, clients, lenders, title companies, and attorneys — you're the hub that keeps every deal moving
• Compliance review on every file before it hits the closing table
• Escalation and resolution of issues before they become emergencies (because you've seen them all before)
• Real-time updates in our CRM and transaction management systems so nothing is a mystery to anyone on the team

What You Bring

Must-haves:

• 5+ years as a Transaction Coordinator or Closing Coordinator in residential real estate — OR 500+ closed transactions
• Proven experience managing high-volume pipelines
• Proficiency with transaction management platforms
• Working knowledge of CRMs
• Excellent written and verbal communication — you know how to keep agents & clients calm and lenders accountable
• Ability to work independently with minimal oversight

Nice-to-haves:

• Michigan real estate experience or familiarity with Michigan purchase agreements and closing processes
• Real estate license (not required)
• Experience supporting large teams (50+ agents)

What You Get

• Aggrssive base salary depending on experience
• Paid time off (3 weeks PTO + paid holidays)
• 100% remote — we trust experienced people to manage their own schedule
• A team that already has systems, support staff, and processes in place — you're not building from scratch
