Brandon Jones
Head of Real Estate
I am a freshman majoring in Real Estate Finance & Development, passionate about leveraging AI to enhance efficiency and transparency in the real estate sector.
​
I am an Incoming 2025 Private Equity Real Estate Summer Analyst at Mesirow Financial Services in Chicago, IL, where I will focus on Fund V ($1 billion), analyzing Core, Value-Add, and Joint Develop-to-Core multifamily investments.
​
Additionally, I serve as an Investment Research Real Estate Analyst at the USC Global Investment Society, conducting market research and investment analysis on real estate opportunities, trends, and financial strategies.
​
I am particularly interested in AI applications in legacy markets and how technology can streamline real estate, a $30 trillion industry that generates over 25% of U.S. GDP, accounts for 17–18% of housing-related economic activity, and supports millions of jobs while serving as a key revenue source through property taxes.
​
Beyond real estate, I am the co-founder of C.H.I. Athletics, a non-profit organization that uses soccer to unite communities and incentivize education in under-resourced neighborhoods.
Outside of work, I am a Liverpool FC fan and enjoy playing pick-up soccer and FIFA.
​
Fun fact: I love Jamaican food and know all the best spots in Chicago!
