Top Investment Sales Brokerage Exit Opps
Do guys at JLL/CBRE/CW/KF go on to mid/top PERE roles after a few years?
Looking at a possible spot on a multifamily team as an analyst and am wondering if I can get where I want to go. If you have experience exiting an investment sales team, please let me know your path.
Yeah brokerage to principal side is pretty robust.
Thanks for the response.
Yes, equity side opps will be very strong. D&E brokerage probably gives more overall opportunities (including debt funds, banks, etc…) but u won’t understand underwriting like a sales analyst does. Source - have worked in both and am currently in D&E.
Very strong as in BX/KKR or Brookfield/Ares? Also--would IS analyst>MBA>BX/KKR REPE be an option?
Exiting to Brookfield is more doable than BX from a top IS shop unless we’re talking Eastdil.
My personal experience was going from a top brokerage straight to a $3B AUM shop that I jumped at arguably too soon and didn't really play out my market at the time. I certainly don't regret it since I've been at this place for a long long time, but I had other interest at the time from places that were as big or bigger. I can't say definitively that you can go from JLL/CBRE/CW to Blackstone or Starwood, but it's not impossible. Although, if your goal is to go to a firm that does institutional deals with multiple billions under management, then it's 100% possible. You can always do an intermediary step and work at a shop that's UMM and then lateral to a larger firm once you have the experience on the buy-side if you aren't getting interest from the Blackstone's of the world right away.
