Minneapolis, April 25, 2016 – CBRE Minneapolis announced today the firm has hired Kevin Anderson, one of Madison, Wisconsin’s top young brokers, to join its global corporate services group led by Tad Jellison and John Lorence.
Specializing in corporate tenant representation for CBRE, Jellison and his top producing team completed nearly 2.5 million square feet of transactions in 2015. As Senior Associate, Anderson will join the four-person team of Executive Vice President Jellison, Senior Vice President John Lorence and First Vice President John Nigon.
Prior to joining CBRE, Anderson served as Vice President at Cresa Madison where he focused on tenant representation, corporate solutions and strategic real estate planning. While at Cresa, Anderson was well known for his work with start-up technology firms and emerging companies in the Madison area such as Performance Gateway, Fetch Rewards and GrocerKey. Other notable clients include Kraus-Anderson Construction, Summit Credit Union, MSA Professional Services and Thorne Research.
“We’re fortunate we were able to recruit a talent like Kevin from a competitive firm in a nearby market,” said Jellison. “Much of our team’s growth focus has been working with emerging tech firms so Kevin’s experience in the industry will be invaluable to both our team and our clients.”
Anderson is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a bachelor’s degree in Real Estate & Urban Land Economics and Entrepreneurship.
Though Anderson has been active in the Madison commercial real estate market for more than three years, he is a Twin Cities native.
“I jumped at the opportunity to move back to my home state and transition from the top tenant representation team in Madison to the top tenant representation team in the Twin Cities,” Anderson said. “Tad, John and John have already done an incredible job of representing some of the largest companies in the Twin Cities. I hope to build on their reputation and success by growing our market share in the industry and providing the same level of service and expertise that our clients have come to expect.”
