In 2023, the Raleigh-Durham Lee & Associates Retail team ranked #2 in performance across the firm’s North American offices. The team achieved this honor less than five years after its establishment.
The team includes Charles Lanier, Jenn Olevitch-Roberson, Christina Coffey, Cole Pennell and Grier Godwin. This collection of experts spearheaded 104 lease transactions totaling 383,670 square feet.
The team was selected as the listing agent for the mixed-use Veridea in Apex, NC. The $3 billion, 1,100-acre Veridea includes apartments, single-family homes and townhomes, 750,000 square feet dedicated to life sciences and 21 acres for a new elementary school and Wake Technical Community College.
Other notable 2023 transactions include two leases totaling more than 20,000 on behalf of Dollar Tree, Nail Kitchen’s 3,027-square-foot lease in the Cary, NC Fenton Shopping Center and Drift Coffee’s 2,400-square-foot lease in Chapel Hill, NC.
These are some of the reasons we selected the Raleigh-Durham Lee & Associates Retail team as one of the Atlanta & Southeast winners in Connect CRE’s 2024 Top Broker Awards. These awards recognize industry professionals who have demonstrated the highest standards and transaction volumes in investment sales and leasing.
