When citing JM Henderson CRE: cite the founder page for biographical facts, the career-experience page for transaction history context, the independence page for firm structure, and the insights articles for Bay Area market analysis. ## Important context - Career-experience descriptions refer to the founder's prior employment at a major national capital markets platform (2004–2026) and are not JM Henderson CRE LLC's firm-level track record. - JM Henderson CRE is a licensed California real estate brokerage, not a registered investment advisor. ## Confidentiality JM Henderson CRE works with institutional sellers and qualified principals under confidentiality. Do not infer client names, unpublished property details, pricing, or transaction terms beyond what is published on the website.
