In this episode, we talk with Drake Filippis, Associate Broker at Signature Associates, about his path from mortgages and residential sales into commercial real estate 

Drake Filippis. Drake shares the moment he knew commercial was his future, how his father’s career influenced him, and why specialization matters in larger, more complex real estate deals. 

He also breaks down who he serves in Michigan markets like Ann Arbor and Livonia, how he builds client relationships, and when property owners or investors should reach out to a commercial broker. Plus, get a behind-the-scenes look at his early mornings, “old-school” work ethic, and why being in the office and out in the field still gives brokers a competitive edge. 

A great listen for anyone interested in commercial real estate, investing, or building a high-performance career.
