“Phoenix is a target market for retail owners and tenants alike, and the addition of Tyson, John and Trask will allow us to better serve our clients' growing demands in the region. Their acute knowledge of the Phoenix commercial real estate market and ability to recognize developing trends will provide our clients unmatched strategic planning and execution,” said Killman.
