JRD Companies is a Twin Cities multi-entity operator (automotive, fuel/convenience, car wash, commercial real estate) actively buying property and businesses across Minnesota. We’re hiring an acquisitions principal to run sourcing-to-close on commercial real estate and operating-business deals. This is a builder’s seat with real ownership upside — not a desk job, not a cold-call farm.
You’ll have a sourcing platform behind you (proprietary CRE intelligence tooling), capital ready to deploy, and a principal who closes fast and doesn’t slow-walk good deals.
What you’ll do
- Source off-market CRE and business acquisition targets across the metro
- Underwrite, build the deal model, and pressure-test returns
- Run negotiations, LOIs, and close coordination with legal/lender
- Build and own the deal pipeline end to end
- Help stand up and lead the acquisitions function as we scale
Compensation
This is a performance-driven role built for someone who’d rather own their number than cap it. Top performers here earn well into six figures through:
- Acquisition fees on every closed deal (% of purchase price, tiered — see below
- Equity participation on deals you source and close — you build wealth alongside the company, not just a paycheck
- Recoverable draw available for the right candidate during ramp (only include if you’ll offer it — this is the single biggest applicant-quality multiplier)
Realistic Year 1 OTE for a producer who closes: $120K–$250K+. Uncapped. Your ceiling is your pipeline.
Who you are
- 3+ yrs in CRE acquisitions, brokerage, lending, or business M&A
- You source, you underwrite, you close — not one of the three, all three
- Comfortable in a commission-forward, ownership-style comp model (you want the upside)
