PHOENIX, May 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 19, 2019, VEREIT, Inc. ("VEREIT" or the
"Company") (NYSE: VER) announced the recipients of its annual
awards for leasing excellence leading into the International
Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) RECon event in Las Vegas. The award ceremony recognizes the
top professionals leasing available retail space in the Company's
net lease portfolio.
The Company's most prestigious award, Leasing Broker of the
Year, is presented to the broker who best partners with
VEREIT's leasing team to provide local market insight. This year's
award was presented to Jon
Weisiger and Jim
Lee of CBRE. As a result of their strong tenant network
and outstanding prospecting skills, Weisiger and Lee quickly leased
a 50,000-square-foot retail space in Highlands Ranch, CO, now occupied by a new
fitness tenant with a 15-year lease.
"VEREIT works with the best brokers in the industry and we look
forward to honoring our top partners every year at this event,"
stated Brett Sheets, Senior Vice
President of Leasing for VEREIT. "These partnerships are grown
through many hours of collaboration in which we share industry
knowledge and local insights. At VEREIT, we prioritize our
relationships with tenants, and our local brokers play an important
role in fostering those partnerships and maintaining our high
occupancy. When combined with our exceptional in-house leasing
team, our extensive national network of leasing brokers enables
VEREIT to attract top-quality tenants. Jon
Weisiger and Jim Lee have
provided best-in-class service to the stakeholders involved in this
year's deals. These two have demonstrated the excellence that we
expect from our leasing partners and we are pleased to honor them
today."
Award recipients demonstrated superior performance and made
substantial contributions to maximize the value of VEREIT's large
and diversified real estate portfolio. Criteria for the awards
include number and quality of transactions, accuracy and timeliness
of reports, quality of marketing materials, market knowledge and
prospecting efforts.
