ABOUT THE ROLE

Join Mainstay as a Flex Agent (1099 Independent Contractor Agent) and take control of your earning potential while providing essential real estate services. As a contractor, you will complete specific tasks on behalf of our customers, earning compensation based on the work performed. This is an ideal opportunity for licensed real estate professionals looking for flexible work, additional income, or a way to stay active in the industry without full-time commitments.

Mainstay’s Flex Agent Program allows you to leverage your expertise in real estate while maintaining full independence, choosing the tasks that best fit your schedule.

Please Note: We are actively building a pool of qualified Mainstay Flex Agents to support our customers as needs arise. Once you apply, we'll reach out when opportunities become available in the state(s) where you hold an active real estate license.

This role is perfect for real estate professionals who:

- Want flexible earning opportunities – Work when and where you want by choosing the tasks that fit your schedule.

- Are detail-oriented and reliable – Ensuring all tasks meet Mainstay’s quality standards.

- Have strong communication skills – Providing professional service to Mainstay customers.

This pay-per-performance model allows you to earn income that reflects your contributions - offering flexibility, autonomy, and strong earning potential within a supportive operations structure.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
