Monthly full-time cost, Colombia versus the US.

What the role covers

Listing coordination and data entry into the MLS and CRM, transaction paperwork chasing, appointment scheduling, lead follow-up, and keeping the pipeline current.

What separates good from average

They chase the missing document before the closing date becomes a problem, and they follow up leads on a schedule without being reminded. This role is judged on follow-through, not knowledge.

Hiring in Colombia, specifically

Timezone. Bogotá sits in US Central time year-round, so a full US workday overlaps with no antisocial hours.

English. Strong professional English in the major cities, particularly in tech and finance roles.

Market. The default choice when the role needs live US-hours collaboration rather than async work.

Calendar and statutory costs. Around 18 public holidays; severance and benefits rules are stricter than in Asia — worth an EOR for full-time roles.

How we'd test for it

Common questions

How much does a real estate virtual assistant cost in Colombia?

A full-time real estate virtual assistant in Colombia costs roughly $1,200–$2,050 per month, against $3,250–$4,850 for a comparable US hire — about 60% less. Pay at the top of the band for the skill level you actually want; underpaying is the most common cause of a hire leaving in month four.

Is that a fair wage locally?

Yes — these are competitive full-time salaries in Colombia, often above local office equivalents, which is exactly why the talent pool is deep. Paying at or above the top of the band buys you retention; squeezing the bottom of it buys you a rehire.

What about the cost of finding them?

That's the second half of the bill and it's where the market varies wildly. Recruiting agencies charge 25–35% of first-year salary, which on this band works out to roughly $3,600–$8,600. We charge a flat fee from $1,995 regardless of the salary, and it's only due once you've read your shortlist.

Do I pay taxes or benefits on top?

In the common direct-contractor arrangement you pay the monthly rate and they handle their own local taxes. If the role is full-time and integrated, an employer-of-record legally employs them for you and adds a platform fee — our compliance guide explains when that's the right call.
