FNRP
OUR STORY
Based in Red Bank, New Jersey, and lead by co-founders Anthony Grosso and Christopher Palermo, First National Realty Partners (FNRP) has grown to become one of the fastest-growing commercial real estate private equity firms in the United States. We began with a vision to build a firm that focuses on creating tremendous value for every teammate, vendor, partner, and tenant that comes into contact with our company. Our philosophy has always been “Win-Win”.
That vision has only become more clear since our founding in 2015. We’ve invested countless hours and capital into building a world-class team, a world-class investment platform, and a world-class collection of business processes. This has yielded tremendous results for our investment partners and team members, who have all benefited personally and professionally through our efforts.
As we look to the future, we see that we are uniquely equipped to provide our investor-partners with best-in-class investment opportunities and service. We’re poised to offer our national-brand tenants access to exceptional markets and white-glove management service. And arguably most importantly, we’re excited to be able to offer our team with limitless career-advancement and earning opportunities.
