John Joseph

Originally from Glasgow, Scotland I made Rochester my professional home in 2007. I have worked for several Rochester commercial leasing and brokerage firms which has given me a broad and deep knowledge of the market and has enabled me to build strong, collaborative partnerships within the western NY commercial brokerage community.

I truly believe that relationships are our greatest asset and look to build my own company on that foundation.

Before moving to Rochester, I lived in San Francisco, California where I was the Director of Properties for a Californian Commercial Investment Brokerage and Real Estate Development Company. As Director of Properties, I managed over 500,000 SF of office/retail space and over 150 landlord tenant relationships. 

I have a great love of art and a strong background in the Art world. Prior to my real estate career I worked at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) as their Senior Associate Registrar, where I was charged with overseeing the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection, its installation, conservation, insurance and world exhibition travel.
