I’ve read a lot of BS online about it. I’ve known several people that are rich doing it. However, I’m really confused about how this business works. Right now, it seems to me like you have to already have a lot of money or real estate to make it in commercial real estate. Those prime locations and huge building are really expensive. I don’t have a lot of startup money and I don’t want to risk much of what I do have. Is it possible to startup small in this business? If so, how? TIA for any help!

I just graduated from college and I have been been looking to get into Commercial Real Estate. I wanted to see if this was a good idea. I have been told I will probably not see any sort of income for at last 6 months and potentially a year. I am wondering what the average earnings are in the first couple of year after training. Also if anyone has opinions of Marcus and Millichap please add that as well.

I am looking to start a bar in Chicago, IL and I know the building that I want to acquire. I have a partner who is able to put $350-400K into the project but the building itself will cost between $750K-$1M to acquire and will require anywhere from $100K-200K to restore and convert. I would like to know the best place to go for a commercial real estate loan keeping in mind the significant funding we already have. I would like to limit the down payment to about $100-150K to keep the rest available for the bar itself. As a side note my personal credit score isn’t fantastic (about 630). Also, the building is not currently a bar but an old theater so it will require remodeling, however they do hold a liquor license so it is properly zoned.

Thanks!

I have recently been offered a job at a commercial real estate brokerage firm in NYC, and I am trying to figure out either, what to expect or what questions to ask. Should I expect a draw, will it be salary based + commission or 100% commission based. What kind of benefits should I ask about? Also, how should I go about asking these questions with out being out of line or seeming presumptuous?
