“Atlanta's industrial market has never been stronger,” Chris Riley, vice chairman of Industrial National Partners at CBRE, tells GlobeSt.com. “After 22 straight months of positive absorption, it is no surprise that Atlanta has risen to a top five preferred market for investment. Over the past three years, there have been 35 million square feet of deliveries versus 52 million square feet of positive net absorption. This imbalance of supply and demand has fueled record operating fundamentals in the Atlanta market.”

ATLANTA—Lincoln Property Company Southeast is posturing itself for stronger industrial commercial real estate success. The company hired Kevin Caille as vice president of industrial leasing. He will work with vice president Denton Shamburger to grow third-party leasing services.

“Kevin brings intelligence, great work ethic and a strong track record with him to Lincoln,” says Tony Bartlett, an executive vice president for Lincoln who oversees the firm's Atlanta office. Before joining Lincoln, Caille worked with NAI Brannen Goddard for 11 years. There he specialized in the leasing and sale of industrial properties in the greater Atlanta region. He represented institutional and private owners, as well as tenants, completing more than 400 transactions comprised of 6.5 million square feet of industrial space.

Caille's hiring comes at a time when Lincoln is moving to strengthen its industrial platform. This fall, Lincoln will deliver Flat Shoals 85 Distribution Center, a 362,000-square foot spec industrial building and Lincoln has an additional 750,000 square feet in the planning stages to be delivered in 2018. Lincoln has been active throughout the Southeast acquiring industrial product on behalf of its advisory clients and strategic partners.

Caille earned a Master's of Business Administration and a bachelor's degree in real estate from the University of Georgia. He is a licensed real estate salesperson, an active member of the Atlanta Commercial Board of Realtors, where he is a life member of the Million Dollar Club, and is past president of the Association of Young Real Estate Professionals.
