Job DescriptionWhy Pezon Properties (Trust Comes First) We are primarily long-term property owners and neighbors —not flippers or wholesalers generally.

Community Stewardship • Track outreach activity and results in the CRM to measure pipeline health and relationship growth., • Proactively hunt for deals through agent and owner networks, balancing this with farming inbound leads from direct mail and the website., • Set up introductory calls with real estate professionals to “sell us” as the best solution for their clients and listings., • Cold call agents and owners to introduce Pezon Properties and position us as the most reliable and community-minded buyer for their off-market opportunities., • Build relationships with local realtors, brokers, investors, and property owners on behalf of the company owner. 6.
