Job Description

About GoldSoil Inc. GoldSoil is where Land meets Tech, AI, and Process — powered by great people. We acquire vacant parcels across the Southeast, Midwest, and other parts of the USA, subdivide them into smaller lots, and sell individual lots for profit. We move fast, we're data-driven — however we're building something different in the land investment space. This is a ground-floor opportunity to join a lean, high-output team.

The Role We're looking for a sharp, goal-oriented, and tech-driven team member to own the full due diligence lifecycle on our land subdivision deals — from identifying promising parcels all the way through funded close. You are not a researcher who hands off a report. You are the person who carries the deal from first look to finish line.

This is a hybrid position — some days in our Round Rock, TX office, with the remainder working from home. Candidates must be local to the Round Rock / Austin area.

This role starts as a 1099 contract engagement, but we're building for the long term. For the right candidate, this position has a clear path to full-time employment as GoldSoil grows its deal volume and team.

What You'll Own — The Full Deal Lifecycle

1. Market and Regulatory Research — Building the Pipeline

• Research states and counties across the USA to identify where subdivision regulations are most favorable — lower lot minimums, streamlined exemption thresholds, minimal platting requirements
• Study and document local ordinances, zoning codes, and subdivision exemption rules to build a ranked shortlist of target markets
• Maintain a living database of pre-vetted counties where GoldSoil can move quickly and confidently when the right parcel surfaces
• Keep the opportunity pipeline healthy and current — continuously adding new markets as regulations shift and deal flow in existing markets slows
• Use AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT) to accelerate ordinance research, summarize regulatory documents, and flag markets worth pursuing

2. Lead Identification

• Review active land listings across target counties using Zillow, Land.com, and MLS data
• Run listings through our internal scoring pipeline to identify parcels with subdivision potential
• Filter for road frontage, lot size, days on market, pricing vs. market value, and utility availability
• Use AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT) to accelerate screening, summarize listing data, and flag red flags early

3. Preliminary Vetting — Eliminating the Losers Fast

• Pull each candidate parcel in county GIS and Google Earth — confirm shape, frontage, and road access visually
• Run FEMA flood map checks to estimate usable acreage
• Research county subdivision ordinances, exemption thresholds, setback requirements, and minimum lot sizes
• Check qPublic and county assessor records for deed descriptions, ownership, back taxes, and liens
• Call county planning and zoning offices to confirm split eligibility and flag any known issues
• Deliver a ranked shortlist of actionable deals with a clear GO / NO GO recommendation on each

4. Contracts and Realtor Coordination

• Assist in preparing and reviewing purchase agreements and letters of intent
• Identify, vet, and shortlist local realtors and land brokers who are active in the target county and state
• Coordinate with the agent or seller's representative through the negotiation and contract execution phase
• Ensure contract terms protect GoldSoil's position — contingencies, inspection periods, earnest money structure

5. Full Due Diligence — Contract to Close Once a property is under contract, you own everything until the deal is funded and done:

• Order and coordinate PERC tests — confirm primary drainfield and 100% reserve site per lot
• Engage and manage local surveyors — confirm frontage measurements, parcel geometry, and proposed lot lines
• Communicate directly with county health departments, planning offices, and zoning boards to advance plat approval or subdivision exemption sign-off
• Track all approval milestones and flag any issues that could affect closing timeline or deal viability
• Coordinate with title company, closing attorney, and any other parties required to fund the deal
• Keep management informed with concise status updates — no surprises at the closing table

What We're Looking For

• Experience in real estate, land, title, planning, or a related field — land specifically is a big plus
• Comfortable navigating county GIS portals, qPublic, FEMA MSC, and state parcel databases
• Actively uses AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT in your day-to-day research and workflow — this is not optional, it's how we operate
• Proven ability to manage multiple moving parts simultaneously — surveyors, county offices, title companies, and agents don't all move at the same speed
• Strong phone presence — you are comfortable calling county officials, surveyors, and realtors and getting real answers quickly
• Organized and fast — we move on multiple deals per week and timelines matter
• Self-directed — you manage your own pipeline and don't need hand-holding to figure out next steps
• Must be local to the Round Rock / Austin area and available to work from the office on designated days
• Someone who wants to grow with a company, not just fill a contract — we invest in people who invest in the work
• Familiarity with South Carolina or Michigan land markets is a plus, not a requirement

Compensation

• 1099 independent contractor to start
• Hybrid schedule — combination of in-office and remote days
• Hourly pay for time worked across the deal lifecycle
• Commission earned on every deal that closes and sells
• Clear path to full-time employment for the right candidate as deal volume grows
