Rich Hanson, who has 40 years experience, primarily in property development, will lead Avison Young\u2019s local development activities, including the Vue53 apartment project. Jim Hanson, who has 28 years experience in capital markets and development, will assist in running the development business and work with Earl Webb, Avison Young\u2019s president of U.S. operations, and Avison Young Principals Erik Foster and Michael Wilson to expand the firm\u2019s capital markets team in Chicago.<\/p>\n<p>Also joining Avison Young from Mesa are William Lyons, who is now director of construction in Chicago, and administrative coordinator Doris Walters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom the Mesa point of view, it gave us the advantage of joining a very popular, growing company, a national and international company and a lot of opportunity,\u201d Rich Hanson told <i>Commercial Property Executive.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Webb said he has known Jim and Rich Hanson for many years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJim and I actually worked together for 10 years at Jones Lang LaSalle, along with Mark Rose, for five of those years,\u201d Webb said in the news release. \u201cRich has been an integral part of the development of Chicago\u2019s skyline during his 40-year career, and his knowledge of Chicago as well as other key U.S. markets will be invaluable to our firm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Danny Nikitas, Avison Young principal and managing director of the Chicago office, said in the release that the Hansons will play key roles in the company\u2019s aggressive U.S. expansion program, especially in development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJim, in addition to being one of the most creative and real-estate savvy professionals in our market, brings a deep experience in capital markets \u2013 both in investment sales of large office, retail and multi-family properties, and also in complex, structured debt- and equity-finance transactions,\u201d Nikitas said.<\/p>\n<p>He said the four former Mesa employees would be important as \u201cAvison Young pursues more local, national and international sustainable development projects.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rich Hanson told <i>CPE<\/i> that most of Mesa\u2019s work had been in the Chicago region, but the plan is to now seek more development opportunities outside Chicago. While Mesa may be one of the few development companies acquired by Avison Young, he said the New York and Atlanta offices have development capabilities and he expects there to be collaboration in the future.<\/p>\n<p>The consolidation trend in the CRE industry was a factor in the Hansons\u2019 decision to join Avison Young, Rich Hanson said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs an industry, we are consolidating, especially if you\u2019re a developer as we were, you need a larger platform,\u201d he told <i>CPE.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\u201cUltimately, we will serve our clients better and grow as real estate professionals. We look forward to collaborating with our new colleagues across North America and Europe,\u201d Jim Hanson stated in the release.<\/p>\n<p>Avison Young, the world\u2019s fastest growing commercial real estate services firm, has been in Chicago since January 2009. Last month, the firm added another Midwest office, this one in Indianapolis headed up by Bill Ehret, who became a principal and managing director of the office. He had previously been a co-founder and partner of Cushman &amp; Wakefield\/Summit in Indianapolis. Nancy Gibbs, most recently a client coordinator at the same firm, joined Avison Young as a senior associate.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in March, Avison Young had entered the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/property-types\/office\/avison-young-says-hello-to-minneapolis\/1004114663.html\">Minneapolis-St. Paul market,<\/a> tapping Mark Evenson, a former DTZ managing director, to head up the office as principal and managing director.<\/p>\n<p>Overseas, the firm opened an office in Dusseldorf, Germany, in March, its third German office and the fifth in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Avison Young currently has 66 offices around the globe.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canadian-based Avison Young is expanding its Midwest United States business and service offerings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1068,"featured_media":1004118200,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21783,21742],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004118189","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-investment","category-latest"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
