Guelph, Ontario, Canada Sophies Flats Inc. Full time

Lead Generation Representative – Construction & Development (Commission)

About the role

We are a Guelph-focused residential construction and development company specializing in custom accessory dwelling units (garden suites) for homeowners and small landlords.

We're looking for a local, motivated lead generator to help us identify and originate new ADU opportunities in Guelph. This is a freelance, commission-only role with meaningful upside per successful deal.

This role is ideal for someone entrepreneurial who enjoys being out in the community, talking to property owners, and spotting development opportunities.

What you'll be doing:

  • Identifying potential ADU opportunities in Guelph, with a focus on:
  • homeowners with larger lots
  • small landlords and investors
  • income-generating residential properties
  • Having initial conversations with property owners about:
  • what a garden suite / ADU is
  • whether their property might be suitable
  • Qualifying leads before passing them to our team, including:
  • owner-occupied vs investor
  • motivation and timeline
  • high-level budget comfort
  • Booking calls or site meetings with our principals

You will not be responsible for pricing, contracts, design, permitting, or closing deals.

Compensation (important – please read)

This is a 100% commission-based, freelance role.

  • You will earn a 3% finder's fee on signed construction contracts you originate
  • Based on current project pricing, typical commissions are approximately $12,000 per deal
  • There is no base salary, hourly wage, or guaranteed income
  • Commission is paid after contract execution and deposit receipt
  • Commission is payable only where no other referral or realtor fee applies to the same lead

The posted pay amount on Indeed is a nominal placeholder only and does not reflect actual earnings.

Who this role is for:

  • You live in or near Guelph
  • You're comfortable initiating conversations and following up
  • You're self-motivated and results-driven
  • You're interested in construction, real estate, or development
  • You prefer flexible, independent work with uncapped upside

Nice to have (but not required):

  • Construction or trades exposure
  • Property management or landlord experience
  • Commission-based or entrepreneurial background
  • Familiarity with Guelph neighbourhoods and rental markets

Work structure:

  • Freelance / independent role
  • Flexible hours
  • Field-based ("on the road")
  • No fixed office or schedule

Location

Guelph and surrounding area. Candidates must be locally based.
