Okay, let’s tackle this. So Chris Abdulghani has 20+ years of experience in real estate development, which is a long time. The operations role he’s held since 2004 is also a significant part of that experience. Location is Baltimore, MD, which is a mid-sized city. According to various sources, operations professionals with similar experience in the real estate industry in the US might charge $50–$100 per hour. Considering the length of his experience and the fact that he’s been in operations for a long time, I’ll estimate his rate to be around $75 per hour.
