After spending 10 years developing his sales and managerial skills in the automotive industry, Will Wade brings a great enthusiasm for real estate to the Weichert team. As a manager of a group of automotive dealerships in the tri-state area, he learned how to work effectively with customers, employees, and larger teams. Combining his customer service and interpersonal skills with his recent experience investing in and managing his own commercial and residential real estate projects in the Hudson Valley, Will looks forward to helping his clients research, rent, buy, and sell properties in the metro NY market.
Will received his bachelor’s degree from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, TN. Following graduation, Will spent a year in Nanjing, China working as a university professor before returning to the US to manage a group of automotive dealerships in NY and CT. While working at the dealerships, Will completed his MBA, attending classes at night at NYU.
It was in a couple of elective classes in business school that Will first became interested in real estate. Following graduation, Will studied the local real estate markets and eventually began investing in commercial and residential real estate in the Hudson Valley. Will spends much of his spare time managing his own properties, which has provided him with a strong understanding of the multi-faceted world of real estate.
Will has been living in NYC for over 10 years and has an appreciation for the many different neighborhoods that make up the 5 boroughs. When he is not working, Will likes to spend his time outdoors with his friends, girlfriend, and 5 pound Chihuahua-Pomeranian, Zula Starfox. Hiking, skiing, traveling, food, reading, and wildlife are some of his greatest pleasures.
