A Message from NAIOP President Brandon Kramer
Submitted by NAIOP President Brandon Kramer, Published January 2025

The great Mike Tyson once stated, “Everyone has a plan until you get punched in the face.” As we look forward to the coming year, the challenges the commercial real estate market has faced in the last few years are presenting some headwinds as we head into this year, but there will certainly be opportunities. We must stay unified as an industry and weather the storm together. Through the incredible network of individuals at NAIOP, we can mutually learn, grow, and partner to ensure Colorado’s commercial real estate industry thrives. I have long pitched the organization, and the value it brings to not only the industry but its members, as a “get what you give” proposition. This organization and its success, amidst tumultuous times, is dependent upon you – the right people – coming together. 

I am sincerely honored to serve in the capacity as President of NAIOP this coming year. I look forward to further developing relationships with our members to hear how we can continuously improve to meet needs, advocate for effective public policy, and to serve the Colorado commercial real estate industry successfully.
