NAI Realvest Forms Central Florida Commercial Property Investment Services Group

MAITLAND - NAI Realvest, which ranks as one of Central Florida’s largest commercial property companies, has formed a Commercial Property Investment Services Group to serve investors and property owners throughout the Central Florida region.

George Livingston, chairman of NAI Realvest, said the NAI Realvest Investment Services Group will cover all property types from retail and office to hospitality, industrial and multi-family apartments.

Livingston and NAI Realvest principal Christie Alexander specialize in industrial properties, Livingston said.

Mez R. Birdie, CCIM, CPM, SCSM, director of retail and investment services at NAI Realvest, will head the Investment Services Group’s retail division, Livingston said.

Thomas E. Hankins, CCIM, SIOR, will head the Investment Services Group’s office division.
Paul Vera, AIA, a development and investment analyst at NAI Realvest, will head the Investment Services Group’s apartment division.

Livingston explained that the market for commercial investment properties is growing as a result of the real estate downturn.

“Property values have declined and some property owners have already put distressed commercial properties on the market,” Livingston said. “Those dynamics are bringing investors back into the market in bigger numbers,” he said.
