Commercial Real Estate Q&A for Agents, 1031 Investors & Service Providers

Residential agents often hear commercial real estate questions from their clients: “My business needs a warehouse.” “I’m thinking about buying an investment property.” “I may want to sell or lease my commercial building.” Knowing what to ask and who to call can make the difference between losing the opportunity and helping the client move forward. This event is focused entirely on commercial real estate and is designed specifically for residential agents, investors, property owners, business owners, and service providers who want to connect with commercial real estate opportunities. To keep the conversation useful and focused, commercial brokerage representation will be limited to the NAI Capital hosting team. This is a place for attendees to bring their questions, learn what to look for, and connect directly with professionals who handle commercial transactions every day. NAI Capital is a full-service commercial real estate firm with 14 offices and more than 250 professionals serving Southern California. Through NAI Global, we are connected to approximately 5,800 commercial real estate professionals in 325 offices worldwide. That network allows us to connect clients with local market expertise and commercial real estate resources throughout the country and around the world. Who should attend: • Residential agents who receive commercial questions or leads from their clients • Property owners considering a sale, lease, or new investment • Investors completing a 1031 exchange and looking for a replacement property • Buyers interested in commercial investment opportunities, including off-market properties • Business owners who may need to lease, buy, or sell commercial property • Service providers who want to build relationships with commercial real estate brokers What you can bring: • A client with a commercial real estate need • A property you may want to sell or lease • Replacement-property criteria for a 1031 exchange • An investment requirement, including interest in off-market opportunities • Questions about industrial, office, retail, multifamily, land, financing, or investment sales We’ll also introduce OffMarketNear.me, a network of more than 100 commercial real estate brokers. Investors can learn how the network uncovers off-market opportunities, while qualified service providers can learn how to register, present their services, and build relationships with brokers across the platform. Bring a client scenario, property question, investment requirement, or service that could help commercial real estate clients. No commercial real estate experience is required. Come by after work, grab a drink, and get straightforward answers about the commercial side of real estate. Feel free to bring a residential agent, investor, property owner, business owner, or service provider who would benefit from the conversation. Please RSVP so we have an idea of how many people to expect.

And while 15,000 or 20,000 steps would be great, they also require more time. So to make it fun and manageable, we’re starting with 10k steps as a challenge—and we may increase the goal in future events. **THE IMPORTANT POINTS ARE THESE;** Space is limited, so **please RSVP only if you’re 100% sure you’ll attend.** 🙏🏾If you RSVP and don’t show, you will be 🚩Red Flagged 🚩for future events—we all appreciate reliability and respect for others' abilities to get a spot to walk!🙏🏾 Expect to hit somewhere between **10,000–12,000 steps (approximately 7.5-9 miles),** depending on the pace and group.

Yes, Lacy Park allows dogs. However, they must be on a leash and it will be your own responsibility. No running involved. Just a casual, social walk. Bring water if you need it. **Free street parking is available in the surrounding areas. Please avoid parking inside the park lot, as the gates may close before we finish our walk.** **Park closes at dusk so I strongly advise against parking inside any of the lots. Just drive around, and you can easily find free open parking spaces.** **Lacy Park is located at 1485 Virginia Road, San Marino, CA 91108**

Learn New Skills-Make New Friends-Experience New Adventure

**INFORMATIONAL POSTING ONLY-See Website at** **[www.wildernesstravelcourse.org](http://www.wildernesstravelcourse.org/)** Dear Group Members, particularly the recent swell of new, never-been-backpacking-before-but-want-to-start members: There is a great Sierra Club opportunity that is about to begin….an opportunity that only happens one time each year and it is one of the best outdoor learning experiences the Sierra Club has to offer. This is the Angeles Chapter Wilderness Travel Course (WTC). Some of you have taken the course and are now leaders and/or knowledgeable hikers. For those of you who have not, enrollment in WTC is something you should consider now. The Wilderness Travel Course helps build outdoor skills so hikers can be safe in the backcountry. The course runs for ten weeks and includes four field trips (two one day and two weekend outings). Students learn map and compass navigation skills for competent hiking off-trail, snow travel, rock scrambling techniques, first aid, nutrition and lots more. The course is followed by unforgettable experience backpacking trips, most of which take place in the High Sierra, Sequoia and Yosemite during the summer months. WTC moves you from being a day hiker to a more serious adventurer. You will acquire skills in trip planning, preparation, equipment and wilderness safety to take you into the backcountry in all seasons, beyond roads and trails with new friends that share your interest in the outdoors. Again, the course runs only one time each year and takes place in Southern California in four locations as follows: West Los Angeles (Wednesdays beginning Jan 6th;Orange County (Tuesdays beginning Jan 12th) Long Beach/South Bay (Wednesdays beginning January 20th); San Gabriel Valley (Tuesdays beginning Jan 26th); The four geographic areas fill up well in advance of the class start date so register early. **FOR MORE INFORMATION AND TO REGISTER FOR THE COURSE GO TO: www.wildernesstravelcourse.org**
