WeWork gets into the brokerage business

A year after launching a real estate investment fund, WeWork is launching a real estate advisory business that offers brokerage services.

On Friday, the coworking company announced that it is piloting WeWork Space Services, which will represent companies and help them find office space outside of WeWork’s locations. Jason Bauer, who previously co-founded the brokerage Voda Bauer Real Estate, will head the venture. He is starting off with three agents, but hopes to grow that number to 10 to 12 in the near future.

Avi Voda, Voda Bauer’s other co-founder, also joined.
