Build a Commercial Real Estate Practice Around Owners, Investors and Assets
Prime 1 Realty is expanding its commercial real estate platform and is seeking entrepreneurial Florida-licensed real estate professionals who want to build or expand a serious commercial brokerage practice.
Prime 1 is evolving into an owner-focused commercial and investment real estate company serving property owners, investors, developers, businesses, associations and sophisticated real estate clients.
This is not a conventional residential agent recruiting opportunity.
Commercial real estate is a relationship, knowledge and origination business. Our Commercial Real Estate Advisors are expected to develop market expertise, originate assignments, understand property economics and build relationships with owners and investors that can produce opportunities for years.
Our objective is not simply to participate in transactions.
Our objective is to become a trusted real estate advisor to the client.
The Commercial Practice
Prime 1's commercial platform encompasses:
- Commercial investment sales
- Multifamily investment
- Retail
- Office
- Industrial
- Hospitality
- Land and development
- Commercial leasing
- Landlord and tenant representation
- Acquisitions and dispositions
- Owner and investor representation
- Development opportunities
- Portfolio and asset-related advisory assignments
Advisors may develop a specialization in one or more property types or commercial disciplines based on their experience, market opportunity and professional development.
What You'll Do
Prime 1 Commercial Real Estate Advisors actively build and manage their own commercial practice.
Responsibilities may include:
- Prospecting commercial property owners, investors, developers and business decision-makers
- Originating listings, leasing assignments, acquisition mandates and other commercial opportunities
- Developing on-market and off-market opportunities
- Building long-term relationships with owners, investors and ownership groups
- Researching properties, ownership, markets and competitive inventory
- Preparing comparable analyses, valuation support and investment analyses
- Understanding property income, operating expenses, capitalization rates, cash flow, financing considerations and other commercial economics
- Preparing proposals, listing presentations and property marketing materials
- Marketing properties for sale or lease
- Representing sellers, buyers, landlords, tenants and investors
- Participating in negotiations, due diligence and transaction execution
- Maintaining a disciplined CRM, prospecting pipeline and follow-up process
- Developing expertise and market recognition within a defined commercial specialty
Why Prime 1 Realty?
An Owner-Focused, Integrated Real Estate Platform
Prime 1 operates across more than brokerage alone.
Our expanding platform brings together commercial brokerage, investment real estate, property management, licensed community association management and owner representation.
That creates an environment centered around owners, assets and long-term real estate relationships rather than isolated transactions.
A relationship that begins with a commercial transaction may ultimately involve acquisition, leasing, management, repositioning, disposition, reinvestment, development or another legitimate real estate need.
Boutique Access. Entrepreneurial Opportunity.
Prime 1 is deliberately building its commercial platform.
Commercial professionals joining during this stage have an opportunity to establish a specialization, develop meaningful owner relationships and grow alongside our expanding commercial presence rather than simply becoming another license inside a large brokerage organization.
We value origination, market intelligence, professionalism, analytical ability, accountability and long-term relationship development.
Our Advisors build their own commercial identity and book of business while Prime 1 provides the licensed brokerage platform, leadership, infrastructure, compliance, systems and broader real estate capabilities behind them.
Commercial Professional Development
Commercial real estate requires substantially more than holding a real estate license.
Prime 1 strongly encourages continued development in:
- Commercial investment analysis
- Property valuation
- Financial modeling
- Commercial leasing
- Negotiation
- Due diligence
- Development
- Asset management
- Multifamily investment
- Owner representation
- Commercial property operations
Relevant commercial education and recognized professional credentials, including CCIM education and designation, are strongly encouraged.
Commercial Compensation
This is a commission-based independent contractor commercial brokerage opportunity.
Prime 1 utilizes a production-based commercial compensation structure designed to recognize:
- Origination
- Experience
- Production
- Transaction responsibility
- Sustained performance
Compensation for Advisor-originated business is established under the applicable Prime 1 Commercial Independent Contractor Agreement.
Experienced commercial professionals with demonstrated production, established owner and investor relationships, specialized market expertise or an existing transferable book of business may qualify for enhanced or individually negotiated compensation terms.
Commercial transactions can involve cooperating brokers, teams, referrals, multiple professionals and transaction-specific arrangements. Compensation is therefore determined in accordance with the applicable agreement and the economics and responsibilities of each assignment.
Prime 1-Originated Commercial Opportunities
Prime 1 also develops commercial opportunities through company business development, owner and investor relationships, brokerage activities, property management relationships, CAM relationships, strategic partnerships and marketing.
Prime 1-originated assignments are separate from Advisor-originated business.
Compensation for company-originated opportunities is established based on the source and nature of the assignment, the Advisor's role, specialization, experience, responsibilities and transaction structure.
Company-originated business is not guaranteed.
Who We're Looking ForExperienced Commercial Professionals
We want to hear from commercial professionals who have developed transaction experience, owner relationships, market expertise, a book of business or a demonstrated ability to originate commercial opportunities.
Prime 1 may be especially attractive if you're seeking:
- Competitive, production-based economics
- Entrepreneurial independence
- Boutique brokerage access
- Direct access to brokerage leadership
- An integrated real estate platform
- The ability to develop a defined market specialization
- An opportunity to participate in the growth of an expanding commercial brokerage
Exceptional Professionals Transitioning Into Commercial
Commercial experience is strongly preferred, but we will consider exceptional Florida-licensed professionals with the business-development ability, analytical aptitude, professionalism and commitment necessary to become legitimate commercial real estate practitioners.
Relevant backgrounds may include investment real estate, multifamily, luxury real estate, property management, community association management, finance, banking, development, construction, leasing, asset management and business development.
Simply wanting to "try commercial real estate" is not sufficient.
Candidates transitioning into commercial brokerage must be serious about developing the financial, analytical, transactional and relationship-development disciplines necessary to compete professionally.

- Entrepreneurial and self-directed

Build More Than Your Next Deal
Prime 1 is not building a residential brokerage with a commercial department attached to it.
We are deliberately developing an owner-focused commercial real estate platform built around origination, advisory relationships, investment sales, leasing, management and long-term ownership relationships.
If you're primarily looking for internet leads and a place to hang your license, this opportunity may not be the right fit.
If you want to originate business, develop serious commercial expertise, build enduring relationships with owners and investors, create a meaningful book of business and grow alongside an expanding commercial real estate platform, we want to hear from you.
