[IMGCAP(1)]ATLANTA-Jones Lang LaSalle, based in Chicago, plans to expand its capital markets practice here as well as throughout the Southeast. The firm has hired six people to lead the expansion. “Our goal is to be in the top three service providers for leasing, management, corporate solutions, investment sales and finance,” says Earl Webb, chief executive officer of Jones Lang LaSalle’s capital markets group. “We want to be a significant planer in that market in all aspects of real estate.”

Jones Lang LaSalle has had a presence in the Atlanta real estate market since 1978 and the office currently has 400 employees. The firm had recently focused on expanding in other areas, such as New York City, Chicago, southern and northern California, Texas, Florida, Washington, DC and Boston, Webb says.

“In 2007, we are increasing our focus in the Southeast and in Atlanta, in particular,” he says. Jones Lang LaSalle plans to focus on the Atlanta market for industrial, and focus on Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh and Nashville for expanding its business in the office and retail markets, Webb says.
