Many of you are not sure if hiring a REVA (Real Estate Virtual Assistant) is cost effective or if you should just consider hiring an in-house assistant.
Below is a chart that you can use to see a side by side comparison of how a REVA stacks up to the Employee. I think in the end you will see how much of a savings you are getting by utilizing the new age assistant over a traditional employee.
Another thing to remember is when you hire a REVA you are ONLY charged for the actual time that your REVA spends on your task. Meaning you are not paying for idle time, bathroom breaks, time spent for personal phone calls etc.
