Andreas Makris's Linkedin Analytics

People often ask how I went from restaurants to self-storage brokerage. The truth? I've always been fascinated by how spaces create value - whether it's a dining room where memories are made or a storage unit that solves someone's logistical nightmare. What drives me in this business isn't just deals - it's understanding the story behind every property. When I walk through a facility, I see more than square footage: - The operational nuances that make or break profitability - The untapped potential in underutilized spaces - The human element behind every investment decision My approach comes from getting my hands dirty - literally. As someone who: • Owns and operates a self-storage facility • Runs a moving company • Built a tech startup in the feedback space I bring real-world operational knowledge to every advisory conversation. At Marcus & Millichap, I've found the perfect platform to merge my entrepreneurial background with my passion for self-storage. Whether you're considering selling, buying, or just want to benchmark your property's performance, I speak your language because I've been in your shoes. When I'm not analyzing cap rates or market trends, you'll find me: • Testing new recipes (my spanakopita has been called "life-changing") • Coaching young professionals (paying forward the mentorship I've received) • Planning my next adventure with my family Let's connect if you value: ✓ Brokerage advice grounded in operational experience ✓ Straight talk about your property's potential ✓ Creative solutions tailored to your goals I'm always happy to share insights, compare notes on facility management, or swap restaurant recommendations. After all, the best business relationships often start with genuine connections.
