#333: Tech & Real Estate, The Future of Traditional Office Spaces, and So Much More! -with Jonathan Wasserstrum

Real Estate Investing for Cash Flow with Kevin Bupp

Jonathan Wasserstrum is a real estate tech expert, and CEO and Co-Founder of SquareFoot.

Founding Squarefoot in 2011, it poses as a new kind of commercial real estate company by helping other businesses find their next office space. It leverages technological innovation and human expertise to solve clients’ needs and help guide them from initial inquiry to lease signing and beyond. The platform now features more than 300,000 office listings, 5,000 new listings monthly, and over 1,300 leases executed to date.

Jonathan previously worked in the International Capital Group at Jones Lang LaSalle where he advised foreign and domestic clients on more than $3 billion worth of transactions globally.

Quotes:

“We have in-house teams of brokers in every market we cover to actually shepherd our clients through the process."
