Significant Transactions
|
Working on behalf of Opus Northwest, Jim conducted a diligent market analysis and aggressive marketing plan for a troubled office property in St. Cloud, Minnesota with less than 50% occupancy. This property had not seen a completed lease transaction in four years. The result: Jim raised occupancy to 100% within six months. Jim has now been responsible for leasing 14 office buildings for Opus Northwest.
Adding to his successful track record, Jim was able to assist another client, Great West Life Insurance, in leasing and selling their building. The office property had been struggling with a 41% vacancy rate. Jim and his team were able to bring the occupancy to 92% and then successfully sell the property. |
