Crossman & Company One of The Region’s Most Award Winning Commercial Real Estate Companies

ORLANDO, Fla. --- Crossman & Company, the Orlando-based commercial real estate company that ranks as one of the largest retail property management, leasing and development companies in the Southeastern U.S., also ranks as one of the region’s top award winners in 2011.

John Crossman, president of Crossman & Company, said the firm and its associates have earned more than 20 noteworthy accolades from NAIOP, the Central Florida Commercial Association of Realtors (CFCAR), and Costar, which ranks commercial realtors nationwide.

Crossman & Company’s 2011 accolades include NAIOP awards for rookie of the year to Associate Whitaker Leonhardt, retail broker of the year to Vice President Justin Greider, and student of the year to Research Analyst Molly Delahunty.

Two Crossman & Company client projects also won NAIOP awards: The Aloma Shopping Center was named retail development of the year in Central Florida and Orlando Fashion Square Mall was named re-use property of the year.

The Orlando Fashion Square lease to National Entrepreneur Center, which Whitaker Leonhardt of Crossman & Company negotiated, was named “Best Headquarters Campus Relocation of the Year” by Orlando Business Journal.

At the CFCAR Hallmark Awards event earlier this year, Crossman was a top recipient. The company’s Hallmark awards included rookie of the year, Whitaker Leonhardt; circle of achievement, Sr. Associate Daniel Germano; retail top producers, Associates Katherine Rush and Whitaker Leonhardt, and Vice Presidents Courtney Kowalchuk and Justin Greider.

Rush won an additional Hallmark award as the region’s top office producer, and Greider was named one of the area’s top overall producers.

Kowalchuk was selected as one of the top 40 under 40 Executives to Watch in Central Florida and one of Central Florida’s Women Who Mean Business by the Orlando Business Journal.

Associate Ashley Thornburg and Kowalchuk were both nominated for the Real Estate Forum’s 2011 Women of Influence in Commercial Real Estate.

Costar Group named five Crossman & Company Associates top brokers in the region: Greider, Rush, Leonhardt, Germano and Associate Ashley Thornburg in South Florida.

Costar also named Crossman & Company one of the region’s top commercial property brokerage firms and a top power broker.

Crossman & Company Executive Vice President Richard Crotty received the Legacy Award from Lifework Leadership and the James B. Greene Economic Development Award from the Metro Orlando Economic Development Commission.

A leading U.S. trade publication, Retail Traffic, named Crossman & Company one of the top real estate management companies in the U.S. based on gross leasable area and Florida Trend magazine ranked Crossman & Company number 18 among the State of Florida’s “Best Places to Work.”
