Richard McGirr interviews Nick Jones, founder and CEO of Alakai Capital, about how he scaled his commercial real estate company from a solo operation into a multi-department organization. Nick shares how he transitioned from land brokerage into development, why retail provided the best entry point for his early deals, and how cultivating tenant and broker relationships became the backbone of his growth strategy. He also discusses building organizational infrastructure—accounting, asset management, operations, and culture—to transform a deal-operator model into a scalable business.
