I saw a note on Crexi’s expansion in 2022, but it barely mentioned him. Seems like the platform story dominates, which matches what others are saying.

It also raises the question of how involved he is day-to-day versus steering long-term strategy. Leadership influence can be subtle but noticeable in company moves.

Looking at competitors like CoStar and LoopNet could provide perspective. Understanding how Crexi differentiates itself might reveal where Mike’s strategic influence is visible.

Panel talks or podcasts might show priorities and style in a more natural way than curated interviews.

Yes, and public info on positioning versus competitors is probably the clearest way to assess influence without speculation.

Funding patterns over time might be another way to gauge involvement. If he participates actively in each round, that’s tangible influence beyond articles.

Hey everyone, I came across a profile on Mike DeGiorgio, the founder and CEO of Crexi, and thought I’d start a discussion here. According to public bios, Mike launched Crexi back in 2015 aiming to modernize commercial real estate dealmaking with a tech-centric marketplace and tools for brokers, buyers, and sellers. His background includes earlier work helping build what’s now known as Ten-X, and he’s also taught entrepreneurship at his undergrad alma mater. Under his leadership, Crexi has grown considerably and claims to have facilitated large volumes of property activity and market engagement. I’m curious how people in this space view that progress and what the community thinks about Crexi as a startup and tech platform given that evolution. Anyone here used the tools or followed Mike DeGiorgio’s work closely in the CRE world?

Leadership hires and team development could be a subtle but revealing indicator of priorities. Tracking that publicly could show his impact on company direction.

Absolutely, hiring trends can tell a lot about involvement without having insider knowledge. That might be the clearest evidence of hands-on leadership outside the profile narrative.
