Do you love a clean file, meeting deadlines, and a closing that goes off without a hitch? Choice Homes is hiring a Transaction Manager to own a set of transactions from the day the sign goes in the yard to the day the keys change hands. Experience is a plus, but we are willing to train the right person.

This is not an assistant role. We are looking for someone who can run a file start to finish, catch the mistake before the title company does, and keep everyone moving on deadline.

Pay, Schedule, & Location

• $45,000 to $60,000 per year starting salary, depending on skill set and experience

• Bonus opportunity based on client surveys

• Full-time, in-office at 400 E Main St, Suite 215, Chattanooga, TN 37408

• Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM

Most of the work happens during business hours. Because real estate deadlines do not always keep office hours, occasional evening and weekend availability is required for urgent matters and contract deadlines.

Flexible Time Off

We believe in work-life balance and offer a flexible approach to time off rather than a traditional accrued PTO policy. Our team members typically enjoy around two weeks of vacation annually, with additional flexibility based on individual needs. We simply ask that time off be planned and communicated in advance whenever possible, with appropriate coverage arranged to ensure transactions stay on track.

Our Culture

At Choice Homes, excellence is not optional. We hold high standards and back them with real support: clear systems, documented processes, training, and a team that has your back. Accountability here is how we show we care, and we deliver on what we say we will do, and expect the same from each other.

We live by five core values:

• Coachable: willing to learn, eager to grow, and disciplined enough to execute what you are taught, even when it is uncomfortable or unfamiliar

• Committed to Growth: growth is a journey, not a destination. We do not expect perfection, but we do expect growth, and we are hungry to level up rather than waiting to be pulled forward

• Solutions, Not Excuses: we take ownership, bring options instead of obstacles, and keep things moving forward. Problem solvers get paid

• Show Up, Take Action and Win: knowledge is only powerful when it is put into action. Showing up means you do what you said you would do

• We Over Me: real estate is a team sport. We celebrate each other's wins, have each other's backs, and put the mission above ego. When one of us wins, we all win

We practice what we teach and stay open to feedback. If you see a better way to do something, we want to hear it.


One last detail: this job is all about the details, so here is your first one. Start your application message with the words "Clean file" so we know you read all the way to the end.

You will take our sellers from listing to closing, and when one of those sellers buys their next home with us, you will manage that purchase too. Every file runs on a standard checklist, so your day is structured, and your priorities are clear.

• New contracts: review the paperwork, confirm the key dates and numbers, set up the file, and introduce everyone to each other

• Deadlines: keep earnest money, due diligence, appraisal, and closing dates on track

• Coordination: keep agents, clients, lenders, and title companies informed and moving

• Paperwork: handle amendments, releases, and terminations, and get fully executed documents to every party

• Closings: schedule closings, prepare commission splits, check the numbers, and close out the file

• Accuracy: catch mismatches across our systems before they reach a settlement statement or a commission check

You will work every day in Dotloop, SkySlope, Follow Up Boss, Asana, Slack, Google Sheets, the MLS, ChatGPT, or Claude.

• Exacting about details: you notice when the price on one document does not match the last amendment

• Someone who hits deadlines without reminders and follows up until the item is done

• A clear, friendly writer with clients, agents, title companies, and lenders

• Comfortable working in several software systems at once and quick to learn new ones

Bonus points (preferred, but not required):

• Experience as a transaction coordinator or transaction manager

• Experience on a high-volume real estate team or brokerage

• Working knowledge of Tennessee and Georgia contract forms

• Hands-on time in Dotloop, SkySlope, Follow Up Boss, ChatGPT, and Claude

Choice Homes is a high-volume residential real estate sales team of about 50 people, based in Chattanooga, Tennessee. We sell in Tennessee and Georgia and are growing into Knoxville, Nashville, and Atlanta. Our operations team keeps every contract moving from signed offer to closed and paid, so our agents can stay in front of clients. You will join that team alongside our current Transaction Manager, Listing Manager and operations assistants, reporting to our Operations Manager.

If you take pride in getting every detail right and want to grow with a team that is expanding, we would love to hear from you.
