Bio
As a licensed Illinois real estate broker, Realtor® and IL registered business sale broker, Leah Erickson can assist you with any commercial or industrial property need, land acquisition or sale, retail development, or historic building leasing and sales. She is a result and detail-oriented professional with a variety of business skills that have culminated in commercial real estate. She has a bachelor’s degree in industrial engineering from Purdue University and is well known and respected in the communities she serves.
Her experience as a project manager and estimator of fire protection in Chicagoland construction projects led her to have a keen sense of the development and building process. After the construction market halted in the late 2000’s, Leah began working at a third-generation family-owned mechanical repair business and was tasked with a variety of projects, IT implementation, safety protocols, and process improvement. While working there Leah became very involved in her local business community and continues to act as the vice president of the La Salle Business Association.
Through this organization and community involvement, Leah went on to serve as Economic Development Director for the City of La Salle. She is well versed in many local, state, and federal incentives such as TIF, EDGE, Façade improvements, Historic Designation, Enterprise Zones, and local/county zoning. She is the owner of a 135 year old fully-rehabbed building in her hometown of La Salle and specializes in Downtown Rehabilitation projects, leasing and sales.

Combing these core values with the most up to date technology and analytical data available and the choice is clear! Property intelligence, market potential predictions, VOID analysis, trade area development, and mobile data analysis are just a few ways that Coldwell Banker Commercial differentiates itself from the competition.
