As an area expert, Chris handles all asset types, both for sales and leasing, including residential and commercial land sales, and office and creative industrial leasing transactions on both sides of the table, which has earned him an encyclopedic knowledge of these markets and a reputation for deep and real time street level market information for his clients’ benefit.
