Our August 19th PRO Perspective features Cathy Jones, Michelle Hudson, and Patricia Loveall sharing their brokerage managing experience. • Crexi's PRO Perspective series explores various aspects of the commercial real estate industry in conversation with some of the top CRE professionals in the industry. In each episode, we feature different guests to tap into their wealth of CRE expertise and explore the latest trends and updates from the world of commercial real estate. • In this episode, Crexi's Kyla Dickman and Jessica LaRusso sit with Cathy, Michelle, and Patricia to discuss the ins and outs of starting, growing, and managing a brokerage. This female-led panel deep-dives into topics ranging from first-time broker advice to how to attract and hire the best talent for your firm. Some key takeaways include: • New developments in CRE Tech have allowed smaller firms to compete on a more level playing field as larger brokerages. • Over the years, the commercial real estate business has become more collaborative: your competition is also your friends and peers, and good relationships are among the most crucial aspects of your brokerage's business. • An increase in data availability is becoming one of CRE's most powerful tools. • Mentorship makes a considerable difference in the start of any broker's career. Mentors will provide you with opportunities, lessons, and a way to explore your strengths and define your values. • When building your brokerage team, it's essential to bring together a diverse group with different skills and perspectives. A group with varying levels of expertise and backgrounds will allow your brokerage to provide higher overall transaction value to your clients. • • Like this?
