Chris Barbieri

CEO - Building Blocks CRE

Professionally, Chris is a software entrepreneur and commercial real estate agent.

On the software front Chris started a CRE CRM company out of the frustration in finding a simple CRM that easy for agents to use.   

On the Commercial Real Estate side, Chris spends much of my time driving around looking at large cement boxes packed with metal shipping boxes that produce a never ending supply of yet smaller cardboard boxes stacked in endless rows.  Or strolling around corporate office suites with brokers with crisp white shirts, where he is constantly wondering how those brokers keep their white shirts so crisp!

While not starting software companies, watching boxes pup smaller boxes or mentally analyzing starch levels in shirts.  Chris enjoys time with my wife Patty of 6 years, his son Cooper and their fur production unit, which Patty loving refers to as their dog. 

 

Noah B. Nazzaro 

CoStar Group

Noah has been in commercial real estate for over eight years and is a Senior Account Executive for CoStar, the largest commercial real estate research company in the world.  CoStar provides over $4 trillion in market comps, tracks 90+ billion square feet of property data and 1.5 million listings throughout the United States.  Since 2008 Nazzaro has handled CoStar’s top clients in Los Angeles and across the country, providing them with the industry’s leading information and technology platform.  Originally from Bucks County, PA, he began his career in securities lending, then later joined Studley in Philadelphia where he represented tenants in their real estate strategies.  His interests in urban planning, architecture, finance and travel all contribute to his passion for commercial real estate.
