• Perform high-level zoning analysis (FAR, bulk, use, air rights, conversion potential)
• Collaborate with the underwriting team to evaluate feasibility and structure transactions
• Present new opportunities weekly to the executive team in acquisition meetings, clearly articulating the opportunity, zoning potential, ownership dynamics, and strategic angle
• Track outreach efforts, pipeline, and owner communications
• Be active in the field — walking neighborhoods, meeting owners, uncovering opportunities before competitors

Qualifications

• 2–5+ years of experience in NYC real estate acquisitions, investment sales, or development
• Demonstrated track record of closing transactions in Manhattan and Brooklyn
