Hi. How do I get into commercial real estate? Where do I start? Real Estate and business ownership has always my passion and I'm ready finally to do what I love.
I like residential real estate too, but wondering if I should do that after given the sheer number of residential real estate agents out there.

Commercial real estate is massively broad.

What do you want to do? Brokerage? Consulting? Also your location massively matters

It is now time to staff up for another conference and I’m welcome to return, but my direct report is being promoted to Comms Dir. they’d like to split the role somehow, but I can’t figure out how.

Looking for a gut check. Our financial advisor says we can afford a home up to $2M. We make good money (>$500K) with no debt or loans. Up to $2M sounds absurd but the city’s COL is very high. Is this a golden handcuffs situation? We don’t want to overreach if we really shouldn’t. I’m looking for serious advice.
