At OODA Acquisitions, we find deals that brokers don't. What does this mean? It means that we know how to find and generate an off-market deal in places brokers don't shop. Why don't they shop there? Because it's hard to get accurate data and they don't care about finding firms the perfect deal. They have 10 other firms who will take the deal if Firm X doesn't like it. At OODA, we've built the tech stack to efficiently find sellers who others don't. We do this as a customized service for our clients, beginning with their criteria to find their ideal deal and ensuring that they're the only buyer at the table. The end result? Faster close times. Better negotiating power. Less drama. Better deals. As Head of Global Partnerships at OODA Acquisitions, I focus on identifying and developing strategic partnerships with firms looking to expand their real estate holdings. The success of OODA is based on the customized and personal service we give our clients; the more I understand the exact criteria and needs of our partners, the better deals we can deliver. Ultimately, I remember that no matter the industry or deal, it's always a human being sitting across from me. Personally, my experience spans investment analysis, market intelligence, and deal structuring, having worked extensively in venture capital and crypto to help companies scale through data-driven growth strategies and high-impact partnerships. I have a knack for communication, people, and understanding how to create situations, partnerships, and organizations that benefit everyone involved. There is no such thing as a win-lose. I have no idea how many days I have on this earth and they're made drastically better the more I treat myself, my friends, family, and business associates with honesty, openness, respect, and integrity.
