Real Estate Jobs in Virginia: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a real estate agent in Virginia?
To work as a real estate agent in Virginia, you must obtain a salesperson license from the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation. The process requires completing state-approved pre-licensing education, passing the Virginia Real Estate Salesperson Exam administered by PSI, and affiliating with a licensed Virginia broker who sponsors your application. Once licensed, agents must complete post-license education within their first renewal period.
Which companies hire real estate professionals in Virginia?
Companies currently hiring real estates in Virginia include THE BRYANT GROUP REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS, Envision VA Home, and Amazon, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Virginia's mix of large national brokerages, regional firms, and government-adjacent commercial developers creates consistent demand across both residential and commercial real estate roles.
Which Virginia cities have the most real estate jobs?
The Virginia cities with the most real estate openings are Richmond, Virginia Beach, and Chesapeake. Northern Virginia leads due to its dense population, high home values, and proximity to federal agencies and corporate headquarters that drive commercial and residential demand, while Richmond and Virginia Beach anchor the state's other major residential and commercial markets.
Are there remote real estate jobs in Virginia?
Yes, but they're rare. Most real estate roles require in-person showings, client meetings, and on-site property work that cannot be done remotely. About 50% of real estate openings tied to Virginia are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those positions tend to be in transaction coordination, real estate marketing, or back-office roles rather than active sales or property management.
How can I get hired in real estate in Virginia with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is obtaining your Virginia salesperson license through DPOR and joining a brokerage that offers structured training for new agents. Large Virginia brokerages including Long & Foster and Keller Williams affiliates run mentorship and new-agent programs that pair beginners with experienced producers. Candidates who come from adjacent roles in property management, mortgage lending, or customer service transition well, and having your license in hand before applying gives you a clear edge over unlicensed candidates.
Where can I find and apply to real estate jobs in Virginia?
You can find and apply to real estate jobs in Virginia on Migrate Mate, which lists current Virginia openings across residential sales, commercial real estate, and property management. Search the listings to find roles that match your license level, specialty, and preferred market, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
