Premier Commercial Real Estate

What Premier Commercial Real Estate does

Premier Commercial Real Estate is a privately held boutique commercial real estate brokerage firm headquartered in Jericho, New York, specializing in industrial real estate across Long Island (Nassau and Suffolk counties) with adjacent listing coverage in Brooklyn and Queens. Founded in October 2013 by Jeffrey Schwartzberg and Jason Miller — both veterans of Colliers International — the firm operates with a six-person team and a "Client-First" relationship-driven model that competes against larger national brokerages on local market knowledge and senior-level attention rather than scale. Service lines include property acquisition (tenant/buyer representation), property disposition (landlord/seller representation), leasing, property valuation, market-knowledge consulting, marketing materials production, and tax incentives advisory through relationships with the Nassau, Suffolk, and Babylon Industrial Development Agencies.

The firm runs a searchable property database on pcrellc.com organized by sub-market and asset type (industrial/flex, office, investment, land, retail), complemented by a market information blog and email newsletter. No proprietary AI, ML, or SaaS platform is described — the technology stack is conventional marketing and listing tooling. The revenue model is transaction-fee commissions on industrial sales and leases, supplemented by professional-services fees for valuation and consulting; pricing is not publicly disclosed and valuation reports are offered complimentary following a property visit.

Premier is consistently recognized by CoStar as a Power Broker and has accumulated multiple Long Island Business News awards (Commercial Brokerage Company of the Year in 2015, Top Industrial Sale transactions in both counties, Jeff Schwartzberg's 2023 Top Commercial Broker on Long Island). Cumulative individual broker productivity is substantial — Desmond Mullins has closed more than $300M in transactions and Jason Miller has closed millions of square feet — though these figures are career-cumulative rather than annualized. The firm remains independently owned with no external funding, parent company, or institutional investor involvement identified in the source data.

• Cushman & Wakefield: Global commercial real estate services firm with a substantial industrial and logistics practice. Competes with Premier directly on Long Island industrial leasing, investment sales, and tenant representation but operates at vastly larger scale with a wider service portfolio.

Regional players
