Family-owned brokerage firm, Weiss Realty, is celebrating its 50th anniversary.
The company, led by father-and-son team Jaime M. Weiss and Matthew Weiss, has leased or sold more than 20 million square feet of property with a total aggregate value exceeding $1 billion.
“We have been extremely fortunate and proud to make so many significant transactions and continue to service our clients in the same manner today as we have since the company was formed,” said Jaime Weiss, president of Weiss Realty.
Jaime began his real estate career in 1967 as an industrial sales trainee at New Yorkʼs prestigious Cross & Brown Company while attending night school at Baruch College.
After working up to vice president, he continued to make his mark in real estate at Edward S. Gordon Company (now CBRE), Cushman & Wakefield, where he became the leading industrial broker in the nation in 1986 and, later, establishing the first New Jersey office of Newmark & Company.
Now based in Moonachie, NJ, Weiss Realty represents a diverse portfolio of commercial, industrial and retail properties.
“Weiss Realty is a company that is predicated on core principals established by my father early on his real estate career,ˮ said Matthew Weiss. “These core principals continue to drive this companyʼs success today.”
The company has bee involved in some of New Jersey’s most transformative real estate developments, including Harmon Meadow, Lincoln Harbor, some of the stateʼs largest multi-family sales, retail leases and logistics and warehouse projects.
“Our diverse array of services range from your typical brokerage services, to property management, investment sales and financing. We are always thinking entrepreneurially, which has helped us achieve great success both for our clients and for our company through the many real estate cycles we have endured and prospered though. 50 years is just the beginning here at Weiss Realty,ˮ added Jaime.
