Brandon Singer & Michael Cody: Retail by Mona | Discovering Commercial Real Estate Podcast #3
After graduating from George Washington University in 2007 with a degree in Business Administration, Brandon Singer began his career in commercial real estate brokerage. During this 16-year career, Brandon has negotiated high profile retail, hospitality, and food & beverage leases in NYC and gateway cities across the United States. Brandon’s transactions for tenants like Showfields, FitHouse, H&R Block, and Fabric, as well as major landlords like The Related Companies, Blackstone, Thor Equities, and Ashkenazy Acquisition Corporation have surpassed $4 billion in aggregate value.
In late 2013, Michael Cody accepted what he originally believed would be a temporary support role in retail real estate to financially supplement his performing arts career. However, that “short-term gig” led to Michael developing an unexpected passion for retail and transitioning into brokerage. Michael then spent the next several years leasing flagship locations for trailblazing retail tenants and marketing retail opportunities for many of New York City’s top commercial landlords. A graduate of Clarion University of Pennsylvania, Michael feels a special connection to young entrepreneurs, taking great pride in helping new tenants roll out their concepts in New York City.
Singer and Cody have worked together for nearly 8 years, and in September of 2020, the two decided to join forces and form their own retail brokerage firm, Retail by Mona. MONA is a first-of-its-kind retail leasing and advisory firm that uses modern tools to guide tenants and landlords through the increasingly disrupted retail landscape. An acronym that stands for “Making Of a New Age,” MONA was inspired by the most famous image of the Renaissance period as well as its founder’s steadfast belief that retail has entered a renaissance of its own
We talk about what it takes to be successful as a retail broker and the state of the retail market. This chat was very valuable, entertaining, and motivating. I hope you all enjoy this podcast as much as I did.
Tune in Wednesdays and Sundays @ 7pm EST to hear more conversations like this with Real Estate Developers, Real Estate Investors, Real Estate Brokers, Real Estate Private Equity Professionals, Real Estate Lawyers, Real Estate Bankers, and Construction Managers.
