Brian Chen

Brian Chen is the President of XD Commercial Real Estate, leading the firm's brokerage operations across Maryland and the Mid-Atlantic. With deep expertise in industrial and commercial sales and leasing, Brian represents both tenants and landlords, delivering strategic transaction expertise across a wide range of asset types including warehouse, flex, and retail properties.

Brian's path into commercial real estate is an unconventional one. A biology graduate from UMBC, he developed a sharp analytical eye before finding his footing in the Maryland CRE market, where he's been active since 2018. That background gives him a different way of approaching problems: methodical, detail-driven, and willing to dig into the data before making a call.

His hands-on style and local market knowledge have made him a go-to advisor for businesses navigating real estate decisions in the Baltimore metro and surrounding submarkets. Whether it's lease negotiations, site selection, or figuring out the right space for a growing operation, Brian takes the time to understand what a client actually needs and not just what fits on a spec sheet.
