Jones Lang LaSalle Expands Office

NEWPORT BEACH, CA-Jones Lang LaSalle has opened a new regional office at 4695 MacArthur Court in a relocation and expansion of its Orange County operations that includes the addition of two professionals to its capital markets group. JLL has had a presence in the Orange County market for more than 10 years with a team focusing on tenant representation at an office at Newport Gateway, but the new full service office will offer investment sales, retail, corporate solutions, project and development services and agency leasing services as well.

The two new additions to the JLL capital markets group are SVP Jon Nesbitt and VP Baker Morphy. Nesbitt and Morphy are the eighth and ninth professionals that the firm has added to its capital markets group in the past six months, notes David Doupé, managing director of Jones Lang LaSalle’s capital markets group. Nesbitt formerly was a vice president in the financial services group of Grubb & Ellis, and Morphy was an associate director in the capital markets group at Cushman & Wakefield.
