Coreland Companies Adds Industry Veteran Kimberly Talley & Expands Brokerage Team

Sept. 12, 2011 - PRLog -- TUSTIN, CALIF.  – Coreland Companies of Tustin, Calif., one of the largest real estate service companies based in California, announced today it has enhanced its Brokerage division by adding an industry veteran to its Retail Brokerage division. Kim Talley, a veteran of the commercial real estate industry in Orange County and formerly a Senior Associate with CB Richard Ells, joins Coreland as Senior Associate, Retail Brokerage.

Talley joins Coreland  after an 11-year association with CBRE where she was a top producer in the Retail Properties group.  With CBRE, Talley oversaw  the marketing and leasing of over 50 retail properties and was directly involved in negotiating over 400 lease  transactions totaling more than $50 million in lease consideration. Talley has completed transactions with TJ Maxx, Wells Fargo, TruValue Hardware, Starbucks and Citibank.

“Kim Talley brings extensive and similar experience to Coreland’s Retail Team," said Steven Hogberg, Senior Vice President of the Brokerage division. “Kim does what we do – she represents third-party, retail landlords and shopping centers. It’s a great fit for both of us."

Tally will join Coreland’s retail team headed by Matt Hammond and will assist in the marketing and leasing of the company’s Southern California five million-square-foot retail portfolio. She will be based in Coreland's Tustin office.

"We are extremely excited to add this seasoned real estate professional to our team, especially as our portfolio continues to expand with new opportunities from institutional owners, distressed assets and  receivership work,” added Hogberg.

“Our continued investment in good people demonstrates our company’s on-going commitment to expanding our leasing presence and reach, which is the key to our goal of becoming the largest privately-held commercial real estate service company based in California,” Hogberg stated.  

"Last month, Coreland's brokerage division had one of its busiest months in several years with a high  volume of transactions," Hogberg noted. "Choppy waters continue to be navigated by discounters, quick-serve restaurants and savvy landlords and brokers who control better positioned real estate," Hogberg added.
