Jones Lang LaSalle Launches Multifamily in Phoenix

PHOENIX-A growing interest among investors in the southwest multifamily market has prompted Jones Lang LaSalle’s Phoenix office to form its own sector division. To that end, industry veteran John Cunningham has been hired as executive vice president to establish and expand the company’s multifamily investment sales practice throughout Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico.

Cunningham, who came on board Nov. 10, tells GlobeSt.com that multifamily has become one of the most desired product types for investors. As such, he was glad to join JLL to give that company a regional foothold and to work with investors in acquiring and disposing of assets. In his role, Cunningham will report to JLL managing director David Young, who heads the company’s West Coast multifamily investment sales practice.
