Simple. Fast. Proven.

Everything You Need
To Know About
Elite Remote Agent

How we work, who we are, why we're different, and exactly what happens from the moment you sign up to your first VA being fully onboarded.

The Problem We Solve

You're Running a Business.
Not a Staffing Agency.

Most VA platforms dump unvetted strangers on you and wish you luck. We built something completely different.

😤
The Old Way
✗Post on Upwork. Get 200 applications. Waste 10 hours interviewing.
✗Hire someone. Spend 3 weeks training them from scratch.
✗They ghost you after 2 months. Start over.
✗Pay a placement agency $3,000–$8,000 per hire.
✗No system. No accountability. No backup plan.
✗VA doesn't know what a CRM is. Or real estate. Or your industry.
✅
The ERA Way
✓Browse pre-screened, trained VAs in minutes. Not weeks.
✓Every VA already knows your CRM, tools, and industry workflows.
✓VA not working out? Replace them instantly. Same day.
✓One flat monthly subscription. Zero placement fees. Ever.
✓KPI tracking, SOP sharing, and training all in one place.
✓Hire in 48 hours. Not 48 days.

Our Story

Built By Someone Who
Felt This Pain Firsthand

Elite Remote Agent was born out of frustration. As a real estate agent and business owner, our founder James Burbank spent years watching talented professionals drown in admin work — following up leads at midnight, missing transactions because nobody was coordinating, and paying $50,000+ for US staff when the work could be done better, faster, and more reliably by a trained remote professional.

After building and running his own VA operations through Divine Growth Remote Agent VA, James saw the gap — there was no platform that combined genuine pre-screening, real estate specific training, and a simple subscription model that made hiring feel as easy as ordering from Amazon.

So we built it. Elite Remote Agent is the platform we wished existed — and we built it for agents, team leaders, and business owners who are serious about scaling.

Our Mission
"To give every real estate agent and business owner access to world-class remote talent — without the guesswork, the wasted time, or the outrageous fees."

What We Stand For

Our Core Values

These aren't words on a wall. They're the decisions we make every day.

🏆
Excellence Only
Less than 20% of VA applicants make our platform. We'd rather have fewer VAs and every single one be exceptional than have volume without quality.
🤝
Zero Exploitation
Our VAs are paid fairly. We charge clients a platform fee — not a cut of the VA's rate. VAs keep 100% of what clients pay them directly.
⚡
Speed Matters
Every day you wait to hire is a day your leads go cold, your transactions go uncoordinated, and your business goes unmarketed. We move fast.
🔄
No Risk Hiring
Unlimited replacements on every plan. If it doesn't work out — for any reason — we make it right immediately. No questions, no fees, no drama.
📚
Always Training
The real estate and business world changes constantly. We update our training library continuously so every ERA VA stays ahead of the curve.
💡
Built By Practitioners
Our founder is an active real estate agent. We know what agents actually need from a VA because we ARE agents. Not a tech company pretending to understand your world.
Real Results

What Clients Are Saying

"I hired my first VA through Elite Remote Agent and within two weeks she was running my entire transaction pipeline. I closed 3 more deals that month because I stopped doing TC work myself."

Sarah K.
Real Estate Agent · Phoenix, AZ
★★★★★

DM
Dr. Marcus L.
Med Spa Owner · Scottsdale, AZ
★★★★★
"Other platforms sent me people I had to train from scratch. ERA sent me a VA who already knew Follow Up Boss, understood real estate, and hit the ground running day one."
