Bio
Bob founded Timberland Partners in 1992, when he convinced a couple of commercial real estate friends to join him in acquiring a 46-unit apartment property. For many years he was a leader in the Twin Cities apartment brokerage field, first at CB Richard Ellis (now known as CBRE) and eventually forming his own apartment brokerage, Fransen Appert Real Estate Group, Inc. Bob has been the vision behind the growth of Timberland Partners, leading it from a single partnership focused on personal investment returns, to a national organization that is focused on enriching the lives of hundreds of investment partners, hundreds of team members and thousands of residents. He grew up on a farm near Coleharbor, North Dakota, and holds a business degree from the University of North Dakota and was inducted into UND's Athletic Hall of Fame. He is a member of the National Multi Housing Council, the Minnesota Multi Housing Association, and the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties.
