Jason Brenner was working 60–70 hours per week at a car dealership full-time before he found commercial real estate. Once the pandemic hit in 2020, his dealership was closed for three months — that’s when he decided to make the jump. He started out with two warehouse deals with friends, which quickly led to bigger deals.  Today, Jason is the managing member at Brenner Realty Group, LLC, which performs ground-up developments as well as redevelopment deals. He is a GP of 274 micro apartments, 165 units in development, one warehouse, and one flex-space property. In this episode, Jason tells us how he accommodates the need for versatility in small apartment spaces, how he is able to increase rents by providing convenience to tenants, and why he prefers to capitalize deals in-house.    Jason Brenner | Real Estate Background Managing member at Brenner Realty Group LLC, which performs ground-up developments as well as redevelopment deals.
