Eli Priest
Priest's strength lies in his ability to focus on and understand the real estate requirements of his clients while working together toward successful results.
Known for his strong worth ethic, Priest has never been afraid to pick up the phone to make a cold call or walk door-to-door in order to fill landlords' space efficiently and with quality tenants.
This work has also allowed Priest to complete millions of dollars in property transactions, including facilities sold to owner-users, investment sales and industrial land transactions.
