Sand Valley is seeking a relationship-driven, highly organized real estate professional to lead residential sales at the resort. This is a hands-on sales role responsible for guiding prospective homeowners from initial inquiry through closing, while helping shape and execute the broader real estate sales strategy at Sand Valley.
The ideal candidate is equally comfortable building relationships with prospective buyers, conducting property tours, negotiating transactions, and managing the details required to keep the sales operation moving. This is a highly independent role with no dedicated sales coordinator or administrative support.
This role will personally manage both relationship-driven sales and the day-to-day coordination and administration required to support it, while partnering closely with resort leadership and cross-functional teams.
About Sand Valley
Sand Valley is a golf resort and community settled gently upon 12,000 acres of rugged, prehistoric sand dunes in central Wisconsin. Here, residents and guests will find six world-class golf courses built in harmony with the land: Sand Valley, Mammoth Dunes, Sandbox, The Lido, Sedge Valley, and Commons. Founded in 2016 by brothers Michael and Chris Keiser, the resort is known for its friendly hospitality and a community of golf and outdoor enthusiasts who have been drawn to the raw beauty and serenity of the vast Wisconsin Wilderness.
Beyond premier golf, Sand Valley is a year-round celebration of all the outdoors from fat-tire biking, hiking, and kayaking to ice hockey, skating, or a guided cold plunge. The resort now features a 13,000-square-foot Tennis Center with 16 grass tennis courts and the twelfth Court Tennis facility in the United States. Alongside soul-stirring golf and outdoor exploration, Sand Valley offers a variety of savory dining venues showcasing globally inspired and rustic Wisconsin cuisine.
