Most of the best people on the 6th Ave Homes team didn't come from a job board.
They came from a referral. A friend of a friend. A client who said "hey, you should meet so-and-so." Quiet introductions that turned into some of the most important hires we've ever made. So we're trying that again, out loud this time.
We've got two open roles right now, and the best place to start is with the people who already know us — and the people they know. If you're one of those people, or you can think of one, here's what we're looking for and how we hire.
The Two Open Roles
Real Estate Agents. We're adding a few more agents to the team this year. Fort Worth-based, full-time, deeply engaged with the brokerage's culture and coaching program.
Residential Drafting Designer. A remote, project-based (1099) role with our design team. Heavy Revit work — floor plans, construction drawings, permit-ready sets, and 3D models for renovations, additions, and new builds.
Both are real openings. Both matter to the shape of the team we're building over the next couple of years. More detail on each below.
How We Hire (and Why It's Slower Than Most)
One of our core values at 6th Ave Homes is to keep the team small and intentional. We've never wanted to be the biggest brokerage or contracting firm in Fort Worth. We've wanted to be a great one — built around people who are smart, generous, and genuinely care about doing the work the right way.
Practically, that means we're slow. Selective. We don't hire just to fill seats. When we do bring someone on, it's because they fit something specific — the values, the work, and the way we treat clients and each other.
This approach has costs. Our growth is slower than it could be. We sometimes turn down opportunities we don't have capacity for. The interview process for both of these roles is going to feel more like a series of conversations than a checklist.
It also means we're a team full of people we actually like working with. That matters more to us than the alternative.
If any of that sounds like the kind of place you'd want to work — or the kind of place you'd send someone you love — the specifics on each role are below.
For Real Estate Agents
Most agents run their business alone. Protecting their pipeline. Quietly competing with the agent sitting next to them at the same brokerage. Figuring it out as they go.
That is not how this team works.
Our agents actually want each other to win. They share strategies openly. They show up to each other's open houses on their own time. They jump in on Slack when someone needs help with a tricky transaction. We celebrate each other's wins like they're our own — because they kind of are.
