With over 25 years of leadership in Commercial Real Estate, we've seen executives consistently overlooked by recruiters who aren’t sure what to do with them and placement fees skyrocket.

Our Platform Solves This.

Our invitation only platform was created by CRE executives to help elite CRE professionals make discreet career moves and for employers to find leaders in our niche that are searching in stealth mode.

We prioritize confidentiality and quality, ensuring the best matches without the noise or fees in traditional recruitment.

Coming in the new year, expansion of the CRE Confidential® stealth matching platform…to include deals, leaders, and capital and more.

Michelle Duncum, CRE Business Matchmaker® | Executive Placement | Fractional Operations | Business Matchmaking

Founder, Chief Executive Officer & Managing Principal of the 44 Companies

What sets Michelle apart is her ability to see the bigger picture—building businesses, not just filling roles. She is a business builder and matchmaker by nature.  Being both in the dirt (literally) and the C-suite, she hires and assesses client challenges with the whole business in mind, and she understand what great leadership is and is not. It definitely isn’t just about the resume—it’s about fit, culture, and long-term vision and liking the person you will be sitting next to at a minimum. Whether it’s matching leaders to companies, facilitating capital or deal opportunities, or one-off tasks that propel businesses forward, She’s here to make it happen and a resource you’d want to know.
