We’re proud to see Bryan Plourde featured in this guest column for Mainebiz, offering thoughtful insight into how artificial intelligence is shaping Maine’s commercial real estate landscape.

AI is quickly becoming an integral part of the CRE toolkit—streamlining data analysis, elevating marketing strategies, and supporting more informed decision-making. As Bryan points out, however, technology doesn’t replace what matters most. Strong relationships, deep local knowledge, and human connection remain at the center of every successful transaction.

The rise of AI in commercial real estate is already here, in the form of lease abstractions, comp searches, financial modeling and market reports, our guest author writes.

The property was never formally marketed. A targeted outreach process to a select group of six qualified medical real estate investment trusts resulted in competitive interest.

📣 Exciting news for Portland! A fun new destination for both four-legged friends and their humans is on the way. The indoor dog park­–with­ human amenities­–called Woof Play Eat has leased 15,090 SF at 49 Northport Drive. The lease was brokered by Sylas Hatch and TC Haffenreffer here at The Dunham Group.

The building still has 20,000 to 46,000± SF available — a great opportunity to join this dynamic tenant in a high-visibility, community-driven location. Reach out to Sylas for details!

“I wanted a place where I could go with my dog, let him run around and come home,” said co-owner Marissa Sterl. “I asked Brad and he said, ‘You know, this is a great idea.’”

We’re excited to share that our brokers, TC Haffenreffer and Sylas Hatch, successfully represented the buyer in the off-market sale of a prime industrial property at 22–48 Spiller Drive in Westbrook, which closed at $13 million. Steve Baumann of Compass Commercial Brokers and Josh Soley from CORE represented the seller, Spiller Drive LLC.

The 134,000 SF property, anchored by leading glass and metal fabricator SIGCO, checked all the boxes for buyer NRTI—a joint venture between North River Company and Two Island Real Estate.

This deal reflects continued strength in Maine’s industrial market and demonstrates The Dunham Group’s ability to deliver strategic, high-value solutions—even in off-market scenarios.

Congrats to all involved!

Factors making the deal attractive included a quality tenant, the relatively large scale of the property and a good location.
