US | Head of Acquisitions Ops Distressed Real Estate

About the company

Hepler Land Holdings is a specialized real estate investment firm focused on distressed asset acquisitions—specifically tax-delinquent, probate, and foreclosure properties.

We operate at the intersection of legal complexity and asset arbitrage, buying partial interests, navigating title clouds, resolving heir disputes, and unlocking value others overlook. Our model isn’t theoretical—we’re doing deals now, with a growing capital stack, and a high-velocity acquisition pipeline.

This is not land flipping.
This is not wholesaling.
This is equity engineering in misunderstood markets—and it’s wildly profitable when run with precision.

Our goal?
Build a $2M+ annual profit engine powered by operational excellence, legal acuity, and data-backed acquisition systems.

We’re small, fast, and aggressive.
We don’t chase shiny objects. We go deep, not wide.
We don’t want to build a big team—we want a lethal one.

If you’re exceptional at what you do, and you want to build something that lasts—we should talk.

About the role

💰 $3,000–$5,000/mo USD + Performance Bonuses
⚙️ Build the Machine. Run the Machine. Own the Outcomes.

We’re not hiring a virtual assistant.
We’re not hiring someone who “helps out.”
We’re hiring someone who can build and run the entire backend of a distressed real estate acquisition engine—and do it like a pro.

We acquire partial interests in tax-delinquent, probate, and foreclosure properties across the U.S. We unlock value where no one else can. Our model is proven, scalable, and we’re sitting on a pipeline that’s ready to explode.

We just need the right operator to turn noise into signal and build a system that prints profit.

If you’ve ever been the person behind the scenes who made someone else rich—this time, you’ll own the outcome.

About you

You’re not looking for a job.
You’re looking for ownership.

You’ve been the go-to operator before—the person who keeps everything from breaking, who builds systems from scratch, who runs deals others couldn’t close.

You’ve worked in real estate, title, legal ops, or acquisitions—maybe not all of them, but enough to know how to move a deal through complexity and uncertainty.

You thrive in mess.
You turn ambiguity into process.
You don’t just want to support a founder—you want to build the machine with them.

You’ve had roles like:

Acquisitions Manager

Real Estate Operations Lead

Title or Probate Coordinator

Legal Ops Specialist

Real Estate COO (even if unofficially)

You’ve been underpaid for how much responsibility you carried—and you’re ready for that to change.

You’re fluent in English. You write clearly. You communicate directly. You’re obsessed with building systems that scale.

And most importantly: you don’t wait for instructions—you deliver results.

What's in it for you?

💡 What’s In It For You

Full Ownership of Ops
You’re not inheriting a clunky CRM and half-baked SOPs. You’re building the machine and running it your way.

High Autonomy, No Micromanagement
We measure outcomes, not hours. You own your lane—and you’ll be trusted to execute.

Direct Impact on Revenue
Every deal that closes? You’re the reason. You’ll see exactly how your systems generate profit.

Performance-Based Bonuses
We tie bonuses to results. Close deals, increase throughput, reduce friction—get paid accordingly.

Path to Leadership
This role scales with the business. If you build it right, you’ll eventually run a division—with full autonomy, authority, and upside.

No Corporate Bureaucracy
No layers of management. No red tape. You’ll work directly with the founder to move fast, make decisions, and win.

🔥 Summary

This is a rare seat at the table.
You’ll build the engine behind a lean, hyper-profitable real estate firm scaling to 7-figures+ in annual profit.

If you’re the kind of person who builds systems in their sleep and thrives in the chaos most people avoid—this is your moment.
