Bio
hristopher Mansfield brings to the table his award-winning background in architectural design and development to every commercial brokerage transaction he participates in. He completed his Bachelor’s degree in Architectural Technology at Alfred State College, and later pursued and received an accredited Masters of Architecture degree at The University of Massachusetts, Amherst. During his time in Massachusetts, he was awarded a joint AIA / WMAIA scholarship for his award-winning infill development design. Upon graduation, he was also awarded the AIA Henry Adams Certificate of Merit for excellence in the study of architecture.
Prior to embarking on his commercial brokerage career, Christopher actively practiced as a licensed architect in a real estate development setting, with a heavy focus on commercial projects. This experience in architect-driven development allowed him to master high level real estate skills in detailed proforma development, site analysis, zoning analysis, property acquisitions, entitlements, architectural site plan development, bidding and negotiating, and state of the art project presentation and marketing. During his time in practice, Christopher served his community as architectural review consultant for the City of Poughkeepsie Planning Board. In 2019 he was a recipient of the prestigious Dutchess County Chamber of Commerce - 40 under 40 Movers and Shakers award.
In more recent years, Christopher has actively applied his invaluable architecture and development background in daily practice as a distinguished, professionally trained, commercial broker. He has worked with numerous clients, in a variety of capacities, on a wide array of asset types including land development, industrial, multi family, retail, and office use. He has also invested in and holds commercial real estate personally, serving as managing member of his mixed use commercial portfolio. Christopher believes personal commercial real estate ownership gives him the distinguished ability to deeply understand the unique challenges both property owners and tenants face both during, and long after, a transaction is completed. His experience both personally and professionally allows him to intelligently navigate the challenges and drive every transaction towards long term success.
