Allies Commercial Realty is proud to introduce CREwithMe, the evolution of our proven Jr. Broker Program. This enhanced training and apprenticeship platform builds on our successful foundation while offering new tools and opportunities to prepare the next generation of commercial real estate professionals.
CREwithMe by Allies
CREwithMe is Allies’ premier training platform designed to launch aspiring professionals into successful careers through hands-on experience, expert mentorship, and practical skill development.
Allies Commercial Realty is a thriving commercial real estate brokerage based in Indianapolis. But Allies is more than a brokerage firm; we’re a family. Our brokers and team members thrive in a culture that values collaboration, integrity, and going above and beyond for our clients. We believe in empowering our employees with the tools and support they need to succeed.
Who Thrives
in CREwithMe?
The ideal CREwithMe candidate is a self-motivated individual hungry to build a commercial real estate career through hands-on experience. We seek go-getters who embrace our learn-by-doing approach and commission-based structure – professionals who view every challenge as an opportunity to grow their skills and earnings.
What is CREwithMe
by Allies
CREwithMe is a hands-on apprenticeship that immerses aspiring brokers in real transactions from the very first day. Unlike traditional training programs, participants work directly with Allies’ experienced brokers, gaining practical skills in market analysis, client relations, negotiation, and deal execution. This learn-by-doing approach ensures junior brokers develop the exact competencies needed to thrive in today’s competitive landscape.
CREwithMe is ideal for self-motivated individuals ready to accelerate their careers through active deal participation. The program operates on a commission-based model, where participants earn income by contributing to actual transactions, rather than receiving a salary. This structure aligns incentives, enabling junior brokers to receive financial rewards while building their experience and professional network under the guidance of industry veterans.
At Allies, we’ve designed CREwithMe to identify and develop top talent. The program serves as the primary pipeline for our full-time broker positions, with high performers often transitioning into permanent roles.

Participants gain direct exposure to all asset classes—land, office, industrial, and retail—while rotating between brokerage and marketing teams to understand the whole deal lifecycle.

CREwithMe
This is far more than an observation program – it’s an immersive apprenticeship where you’ll actively participate in live deals from your first week. You’ll be paired with senior brokers who will guide you through every stage of the transaction process, from lead generation and client meetings to complex negotiations and closings. The program provides direct access to our professional network, exclusive industry events, and practical training grounded in real market conditions.

“Choosing CREwithMe launched my commercial real estate career faster than I ever imagined. From my first week, I wasn't just observing deals - I was actively working transactions alongside top producers who became invested mentors. The program's hands-on approach gave me the confidence to build my own client relationships while learning industry intricacies most newcomers never see. Today, as a full-time Allies broker, I use the skills and network I gained through CREwithMe every single day. This wasn't just training - it was a career transformation."

Managing Director
“At Allies Commercial Realty, we are not just another brokerage firm. We are a team built on innovation, collaboration, and a commitment to truly understanding our clients’ needs. Having worked at larger firms, I saw firsthand how impersonal the industry could be, and I knew there was a better way. I founded Allies to create a firm where both clients and brokers feel like they are part of something bigger, working together towards shared success.
We’ve grown rapidly since 2020, expanding our expertise across multiple sectors and building a culture where strategic thinking and personalized service set us apart. But growth isn’t our only focus. We remain dedicated to hiring and developing the right talent. We’re looking for brokers and professionals who think differently, who are willing to push boundaries, and who thrive in a collaborative, high-energy environment.
If you’re driven, adaptable, and ready to be part of something dynamic, there’s no better place to build your future in commercial real estate at Allies.”
