Bio
Andrei started with the firm at its inception working on both leasing and sales of commercial real estate properties. The initial heavier focus was on leasing (representing tenants and landlords alike) to study the market from a tenancy perspective. The leasing market was strategically chosen to gain competency in negotiating lease rates, lease terms and tenant improvements, and most importantly to understand how leasing affects the capital markets in sales transactions.
To compound his knowledge, he started working immediately on his CCIM (Certified Commercial Investment Member) designation. Within the first two years, Andrei accumulated several dozen transactions in leasing under his belt and participated in a few sales transactions, which set him up to successfully obtain his CCIM designation within that timeframe. Once he obtained the designation, his focus turned to commercial real estate investments and brokering sales of buildings with over $20 million is transaction volume combined. Currently, Andrei’s primary focus is running the Obsidian Group brokerage overseeing both leasing and sales transactions.
