Richard Goski
Scope of Experience
Recruited from Coldwell Banker Commercial, Richard joined the NAI DiLeo-Bram team in 2011 to further enhance his ability to service his clients on a local, national and international level. Rich focuses on providing exclusive client representation in Northern and Central New Jersey, both on the landlord/seller and tenant/buyer side. Rich’s in-depth knowledge of his territory and the current market status, enables him to advise clients of all sizes in their corporate real estate decisions.
During his younger years, Rich worked at his family-owned trucking company (Goski Trucking established in 1929) where he gained a ’ground roots’ education and valuable experience in management, transportation and logistics operations. Upon graduating from Seton Hall University with a degree in Finance and Economics, Rich went to work on Wall Street for E.F. Hutton and shortly thereafter was recruited to work at United States Lines, a steam ship company, as the New Jersey District Sales Manager. Rich was responsible for new business development as well as maintaining existing clients who imported goods from the Far East. These combined early work experiences provided Rich with an in depth insight and understanding of the transportation and warehousing industry in and around international ports and most specifically the NJ/NY metro area.
With a strong entrepreneurial mindset, Rich went on to establish two of his own companies, which he managed for over 25 years. Rich’s experience in owning and operating companies has further enhanced his ability to relate on a more personal level with landlords and business owners looking to buy, sell or lease space. Rich takes great pride in helping his clients effectively search for, evaluate, negotiate and secure the best terms for their businesses.
Over the last several years, Rich has been actively involved in selling environmentally contaminated properties which require remediation. He has gained an immense amount of insight into the remediation process, which has assisted him in representing owners and developers in the process of converting contaminated industrial sites into redevelopment projects such as with his 4.5-acre potential Transit Village’ Redevelopment site in Garwood, NJ.
Rich also represents his clients in the acquisitions, leasing and dispositions of office, industrial and retail properties with his partner and daughter, Catherine Goski, who joined him in January 2013. Some of ’Team Goski’s’ recent transactions include the sale of an office building in Summit, N.J. to a local law firm that they exclusively represented, the sale of property they listed and sold in their home town to Investors bank and the sale of a property which they listed in Westfield to 7-Eleven.
Rich and Catherine are aiming to grow their business to include more exclusive representation assignments with international companies and are planning to expand their team to include agents that are bi-lingual so that they can accommodate more of their larger national clients that operate throughout the world. NAI’s Global reach, and over 400 offices in 55 countries, offers the perfect platform to accommodate their expansion goals.
