Lawyer turned CRE professional Jeff Rood

Former lawyer turned commercial real estate professional Jeff Rood is the guest with host Chad Griffiths.

Among the topics they discuss:

  • 3:31 - why industrial real estate brokerage?
  • 10:29 - how lawyers view brokers;
  • 16:10 - what can brokers do to help the deal;
  • 22:07- negotiating the lease;
  • 42:30 - broker involvement in the deal;
  • 45:40 - tips for brokers.

Rood is an industrial real estate specialist with Franklin Street in Jacksonville, Fla.

In this role, he represents owners and occupiers of industrial and other properties throughout Florida in a variety of real estate needs, including investment sales, leasing, site selection, development and more.

Rood transitioned to brokerage after a career in commercial real estate law in Jacksonville, having practised as a senior associate with the large Florida-based law firm GrayRobinson, PA and then as a sole practitioner.

He has unique experience in the sector; for example, he served as the sole counsel to the owner of a four-property, 15-tenant industrial portfolio in Jacksonville, negotiating all of its leases and renewals for three years before successfully providing all legal guidance in the portfolio’s complex $38-million sale.
