Jake Gold

Jake Gold serves as an Associate within the PBS R00 Center for Broker Services under the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service, where he supports the acquisition and management of nonresidential real estate assets critical to federal workspace operations. His role involves executing lease agreements and real property transactions to secure optimal commercial office space for federal agencies nationwide. He works within the full lifecycle of procurement—from market research and requirement development to contract award and administration—ensuring alignment with federal real estate strategy and cost-efficiency mandates. His acquisitions are exclusively focused on long-term leasing of commercial office environments, with an emphasis on strategic footprint optimization and operational continuity. Jake maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced real estate developers and property owners, including TWO CON LLC, ONNI TIMES SQUARE LP, CVD MAIN LLC, BELTSVILLE GSA FDA LLC, and CC OWNER LLC. These entities are primarily large-scale commercial landlords and real estate investment firms with established portfolios of Class A and B office buildings in high-demand federal corridors. His procurement approach favors established, financially stable lessors capable of meeting stringent federal compliance, security, and facility management standards, reflecting a preference for proven performance over speculative or emerging market participants. Jake’s contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven focus on securing the most suitable space for federal operations, prioritizing location, build-out readiness, and lease terms over socioeconomic preferences. His portfolio demonstrates no reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB programs, aligning with the agency’s broader strategy of maximizing value through broad market access. His primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses)—indicating deep expertise in commercial real estate leasing. He specializes in negotiating triple-net leases, build-to-suit arrangements, and tenant improvement allowances for federal tenants, with technical knowledge of GSA lease standards, environmental compliance, and facility modernization requirements.
