Trusted by 3,000+ founders and executives, find your EA
I waited way too long to hire my EA. I wasn’t sure I had enough to delegate, wasn’t sure it would be worth it, and didn’t really know where to start. But Ida paid for herself within the first few months and I’ve never looked back.

Testimonials
See how real leaders multiply their impact
I left my wife's ski boots in an airport. Suddenly my EA is in contact with the airport, five couriers, and the airline. She's telling me five prices for different ways to fix it. I'm like, how has she done this already!?

Athena has playbooks that make it feel like starting from first or second base instead of home plate. They bring best-in-class ways of doing things.

We made $200,000 more last year, and I would say that that's a direct result of having Joanne as my EA.
Jacob Tingen
Managing Partner, Tingen Law
My Athena EA’s written English is equal to a native speaker. From the first week I had total confidence that she could adeptly answer my emails, as me, without a second thought.

Real estate virtual assistant FAQs
What does a real estate virtual assistant do?
A real estate virtual assistant handles the admin around your deals and properties so you can spend more time with clients. At Athena, that means one dedicated EA who manages your calendar and inbox, coordinates vendors and tenants, keeps files and your CRM current, and tracks invoices and expenses. They can handle personal tasks too.
How is Athena different from other real estate virtual assistant services?
You get one dedicated, full-time person, not a rotating pool or a part-time contractor. Athena selects the top 1% of applicants, trains and manages them, and handles rematching if the fit isn't right. Your EA builds context on your business over months and years.
Why hire a person instead of an AI assistant?
AI tools handle simple tasks. Real estate work is full of judgment calls: which client to call back first, how to handle an upset tenant, what to flag to you. Athena EAs use AI to work faster, with a person making those calls.
How much does a real estate virtual assistant cost?
Athena EAs are $3,000 per month on a 12-month commitment, or $3,600 per month on a flexible plan.
How does Athena select and train EAs?
We accept the top 1% of 30,000–60,000+ monthly applicants, selected for judgment, resourcefulness and reliability. Every EA goes through in-person training in executive support skills and gets ongoing coaching from an Athena manager. Your EA learns your real estate workflows, tools and preferences during onboarding.
How is my data and account access protected?
Every EA is employed by Athena, background-checked and works on an Athena-issued, monitored device.
