TODAY. WE ARE CBRE.
Ryan Schaefer, Jake Hallauer, , and their team members at NAI Affinity have joined CBRE.
“We are not pursuing ‘good enough’, we are pursuing excellence,” shared Schaefer. “The future of commercial real estate will be led by teams that think bigger, work harder and execute smarter. Combining our expertise, relationships and drive with CBRE’s unmatched network, technology and research positions us to deliver extraordinary results for our clients, team and community for the next decade-plus.”
The team has total deal consideration of over $1 billion in Northern Colorado, including key regional catalyst and development projects. The team members have also brokered the sale of thousands of acres of residential and commercial development land, water rights, and investment transactions. They have experience managing the transactions for master-planned communities, multi-family residential, medical, industrial and retail locations for nationally recognized consumer brands, and shaping the landscape of Northern Colorado.
“The Affinity team bring over extensive knowledge of the Northern Colorado market, and I look forward to them bolstering our advisory services in the region,” said Jessica Ostermick, Senior Managing Director at CBRE in Colorado. “Their market expertise paired with CBRE’s robust research capabilities, specialty expertise and technology will greatly impact our already thriving business in Northern Colorado.”
Schaefer’s and Hallauer’s sister real estate investment company Affinity Partners, LLC, will continue to operate as usual and is unaffected by the brokerage team joining CBRE.
