Real Estate Data Analyst

Our company, Haystack Land Company, is a small, fast growing family real estate investment company that buys, sells and develops land in multiple states across the United States. How do we find the land we buy? We contact a LOT of landowners by mailing, texting and calling – looking for people who don’t want their land anymore and need a solution to get rid of it fast and with as little effort as possible.

We are looking for a resourceful, highly motivated analytical and technical minded person to join our team as a part time Property Data Analyst, ideally growing into a full time role over the next 12 months. We’re looking for someone who’s interested in being part of a growing team and building an amazing company culture.

You will lead the effort to identify new target markets, select the people to contact about purchasing their properties, conducting quality checks to ensure our data is correct and that it flows into the right systems.

While we’d train you on how to do the basics of the job, we’re looking for someone who is resourceful, a self starter, and can deal with ambiguity and figure things out. Above all else, this person needs to have integrity, have a great attitude and enjoy learning new things. You need to have lots of “technical savvy” – and be able to use technology (like Excel, web based applications, even AI tools likeChatGPT) to solve problems and help you get things done.

The hours will vary, and be around 20-30 hours a week, ideally increasing up to 40+ in the coming months.
