ABOUT TODAY'S GUEST: During his 17+ year career as a commercial real estate broker MONA chief executive officer and founder Brandon L. Singer has negotiated lease transactions with an aggregate value totaling well over $3 billion. In September of 2020, Singer launched MONA, a forward-thinking retail brokerage firm that guides tenants and landlords through the increasingly disrupted retail and commercial real estate landscape. Since its inception, MONA has hired many of the top retail brokers in New York City and become a launchpad for the retail stars of tomorrow all while negotiating many of the most prominent retail real estate deals in New York City.

Singer’s myriad deals at MONA have included Gucci’s lease of 45 Ninth Avenue and Breitling’s lease of 875 Washington Street, both of which were signed in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District, as well as LUISAVIAROMA’s lease of 1 Bond Street in Noho for the brand’s first United States store. All three deals were nominated for REBNY’s prestigious Retail Deal of the Year award. Singer also negotiated flagship leases for clients Ben Soleimani Furniture, Showfields, Padel Haus, and many others. As a corporate executive and founder, Singer is most proud of bringing aboard several high-profile brokers and their teams to be a part of MONA’s winning culture, as well as fostering an environment where new talent can learn and grow their careers in an accelerated fashion relative to other commercial real estate firms.
