How Much Does a Real Estate Virtual Assistant Cost? The Factors That Set the Quote
REDG Team · October 27, 2026 · 6 min read
A VA quote is not one number; it is the sum of choices about the role, schedule, supervision, and tools. Comparing quotes without understanding those choices is how operators end up paying less for a seat that produces nothing.
The factors that change the price
Every provider prices differently, but the same inputs drive every quote.
- Role: cold calling, lead management, data, texting, acquisitions support, or admin.
- Hours and schedule, including U.S. time-zone coverage.
- Supervision: whether QA, coaching, and reporting are included.
- Tools: who pays for the dialer, CRM, and data.
- Setup: script, CRM configuration, and training time.
- Commitment length and number of seats.
Freelancer, agency, or managed team
A freelancer is usually cheapest per hour but you supply all training, QA, and replacement. A managed team costs more per seat because recruiting, coaching, attendance, and reporting are included. Compare the total cost of a working seat, including your own management time.
Hidden costs to ask about
Ask who covers the dialer and data, what happens when a VA is absent or leaves, whether there is a setup fee, and what reports you receive. Those answers often matter more than the hourly rate.
The takeaway
Price the whole seat — role, hours, supervision, tools, and replacement — not just the hourly rate. A strategy call is the fastest way to get a scoped quote.
