Ideally suited for CRE brokers with 1 – 2+ years’ experience who are seeking greater autonomy and a desire to spearhead deals from day one, the Commercial Real Estate Broker is responsible for developing relationships with multifamily property owners and investors in one or more designated markets throughout the firm’s sales region.

In this role, you will be actively contacting owners of multifamily properties after researching detailed ownership records; keeping pace with market data and industry trends; prospecting new client relationships; competing for exclusive listings and spearheading property-level marketing initiatives targeting qualified buyers; negotiating and presenting ownership with offers; and streamlining the contract-to-closing timeline.

Additionally, candidates must have a New Jersey real estate license. This position is ideally suited for entrepreneurial go-getters with a track record for achievement who are seeking to learn the multifamily investment brokerage business from the ground up and achieve limitless personal-income earnings.
