About David Skinner:
David Skinner is a native New Englander who grew up in Hudson, NH. He graduated from Bethlehem College & Seminary in Minneapolis Minnesota, with a degree in Biblical and Theological Studies. He began his sales career by selling recycled pallets where he learned how to sell scraps of wood to large companies. After 3 years of walking into warehouses looking for the warehouse manager, David moved across the country to begin selling industrial real estate in the Boston market. Now he walks into warehouses looking for the owner of the company.
About 5 years after working as a real estate advisor, David felt the call to begin Prescott Advisory, a firm that specializes in industrial sales and leasing in the Greater Boston Market. David’s sales and leasing volume at the time he left to begin Prescott Advisory was north of $300 million. He represented companies as small as the small local manufacturer and worked as the local agent for Amazon.com.
David founded The CRE Coach in 2019 when he saw the need to democratize the commercial real estate business by making the business 1) easy, 2) clear, 3) transparent, and 4) informative, creating videos on topics ranging from sales, leasing, management, and negotiation.
