Day-to-day operating brief
What Secretarial Support (Real Estate) work looks like in practice
A Real Estate Secretary supports negotiators, managers or surveyors through correspondence, diary management, file preparation, calls and meeting records. Terms should cover approved templates, dictation, offer messages, identity documents, property keys, client confidentiality and authority to communicate. The secretary should not present draft advice as final, confirm a transaction commitment without instruction or disclose seller, buyer, landlord or tenant circumstances casually. Dictated correspondence should preserve the responsible author's approval and the attachments actually issued, especially where a deadline or negotiation position matters. Calendar management should include travel, access confirmation and preparation time, avoiding overlapping appointments that pressure colleagues to rush property or client checks. Original certificates, signed forms and identity copies should be logged separately from routine correspondence. Courier or post dispatch must match the file's required security and deadline evidence.
Individually written and reviewed against the maintained role record.
