PHOENIX—Jay Lefevers, founding principal of Phoenix-based Viewpoint Group, LLC will join CBRE's valuation and advisory services team. CBRE's valuation and advisory services intermountain region, which is headquartered in Phoenix, provides comprehensive valuations on complex real estate. Products and services offered extend beyond real property valuations to include market/feasibility studies, consulting services, rent surveys, site inspections, litigation support and expert testimony.
“I am excited to welcome Jay to the CBRE team,” says Mike Rowland, senior managing director of CBRE's valuation and advisory services intermountain region. “Jay is one of the top appraisal professionals in Arizona and this addition ensures our ability to continue providing the highest level of service for our clients.”
CBRE repeated as the No. 1-ranked firm in this year's Phoenix Business Journal's Commercial Real Estate Appraisers List. Rankings were determined by the number of appraisals completed in 2013. CBRE recorded 1,174 appraisals and was followed by Viewpoint Group, LLC with 760. CBRE has consistently been at the top of this list for several years.
“Joining CBRE presents an unparalleled opportunity for my clients,” says Lefevers. “My extensive experience with large lending institutions and national corporations, coupled with the ability to leverage CBRE's global platform, will allow for an unrivalled level of service for current and future clients.”
Lefevers has more than 27 years of experience in the appraisal business. He has served as a member of the National Grievance Committee for the Ethics/Counseling Department of the Appraisal Institute, was the education chairman for the Phoenix Chapter of the Appraisal Institute and has served on the Experience Review Committee for the Appraisal Institute.
“Commercial real estate is a business where relationships matter, where things like integrity, trust and confidence define the line between success and failure. This is why our RISE values are so central to everything we do,” says Craig Henig, CBRE's senior managing director. “Jay is the embodiment of those values and I'm proud to welcome him to CBRE. This is an exciting milestone as we continue to strive for excellence in the service we provide our clients.”
