Accepting select new clients this quarter.
At Summit Equity Advisors, we believe in building something greater than a firm — we’re building a network of professionals who elevate the standard of real estate consulting.
We work with property advisors, analysts, and operational specialists across the country who share one common goal: to deliver exceptional results through insight, efficiency, and integrity.
Our team operates like a true consultancy — lean, intelligent, and focused. We combine the analytical rigor of an investment firm with the hands-on understanding of property management, creating measurable value for every client we serve.
If you take pride in doing things the right way — with clarity, professionalism, and purpose — Summit is a place where you can grow, lead, and make an impact.
How We Work
Summit is not a management company or a marketing platform — we are a professional consultancy.
Our consultants are independent professionals who bring their expertise to each engagement, backed by our systems, processes, and reputation for excellence.
We believe in rewarding initiative, respecting autonomy, and providing the structure needed to help great consultants do their best work.
Every engagement is built on transparency — from how we communicate with clients to how we pay our people.
When you work with Summit, you gain not just projects, but partnership, clarity, and opportunity.
A Pathway for Professional Growth
Our consultants advance through three levels of professional development, each designed to build skill, confidence, and independence.
Research & Support Staff
The foundation of our consulting process. These professionals specialize in data accuracy, market research, and detailed project support.
You’ll learn the systems, tools, and analytical frameworks that define Summit’s standards.
Typical compensation: $75–$100/billable hour (1099 independent contractor).
Associate Consultant
Mid-level consultants take ownership of projects, manage client communication, and develop actionable recommendations.
You’ll work directly with clients, refine your presentation skills, and begin to shape strategic outcomes.
Typically earns 60–70% of collected client revenue, depending on experience and results.
Principal Consultant
Senior advisors lead engagements, mentor others, and shape the firm’s direction.
They represent Summit’s values in every client relationship and help expand our capabilities across markets.
Typically earns 70–75% of collected client revenue, with opportunities for mentorship bonuses and leadership incentives.
At every level, advancement is based on performance, professionalism, and trust — not tenure or title.
Compensation You Can Count On
Our compensation model is built on honesty and precision.
Consultants are paid monthly based on actual client collections, not promises or projections.
Direct deposits are made between the 7th and 15th of each month, accompanied by a clear statement of your hours, collections, and payout.
We operate with the same transparency internally that we provide to our clients.
You’ll always know what you earned, how it was calculated, and where you stand.
Flexibility Meets Stability
Every professional’s situation is different. That’s why Summit offers two engagement options:
Independent Consultant (1099)
Ideal for professionals who value flexibility, autonomy, and control over their workload.
W-2 Employment Option
Available once consistent collections exceed $5,000/month.
This option provides added stability, access to healthcare, and retirement benefits — without sacrificing independence or purpose.
Our benefits for W-2 consultants include:
Health insurance (BCBS NC options)
HSA with company contribution
Disability and life insurance
401(k) participation
HR and tax support
You choose the structure that best fits your goals — we provide the support to make it sustainable.
Investing in Professional Excellence
We believe consulting is both a skill and a craft.
That’s why Summit invests in the long-term growth of every consultant through:
Mentorship from experienced Principals
Continuing education and CE credit opportunities
Access to proprietary models, templates, and market tools
Professional liability coverage under the firm’s umbrella
Regular firm updates and opportunities for collaboration
Our goal is simple: to help every consultant perform at a professional standard worthy of the Summit name.
Our Shared Principles
Every consultant who joins Summit commits to five core values:
Transparency – We communicate clearly and operate with integrity.
Professionalism – We treat clients and colleagues with respect and reliability.
Efficiency – We use systems and strategy to create lasting results.
Integrity – We do what’s right, even when it’s not easy.
Empowerment – We give professionals the tools and freedom to succeed.
We believe success comes not from volume, but from quality, accountability, and trust.
