Between acquisitions, brokerage, or development I'm curious what people think is the best route (career path) if someone wants to ultimately be a MF investor.
Considering relationship building, industry knowledge, and reps.
Would appreciate to hear thoughts and different angles on each.

yes - keep working towards your goal and you will be successful
If you want to develop properties, then development would be the best path. If you want to buy existing properties to avoid the development risk then acquisitions is for you. If you want to run your own team at a brokerage and have your own hours and all that, then stick to brokerage and you can invest as an LP, or co-GP with sponsors you're working with closely, or run your own small personal deals on the side. You'll build a ton of relationships with people in CRE in any path you take of the 3 and you'll be underwriting and doing research in all roles (admittedly less in depth in brokerage though). It just depends on what you want to get out of your career path tbh
