Our Team

Garrett Blair

Founder & Head of Recruiting

Early in his career, Garrett quickly realized that in commercial real estate, who you know is often more important than what you know.

Through his experience in multifamily brokerage at NAI Northern California, then as an Acquisition Associate for Kingsbarn Realty Capital, and finally as a multifamily broker at Morgan-Skenderian, he has had the privilege of meeting many peers & mentors within the industry.

He created the Orange County CRE Young Professionals Group to create an environment for young, like-minded professionals to meet and share ideas, resources, and referrals.
