Investment | Turnaround Specialist | Occupier Management | USA–Minneapolis
Tom has just joined the Lee & Associates Twin Cities group in January 2023. Previously
a Senior Vice President with Avison Young since December 2015, Tom has lead a
team specializing in property turnarounds, transaction management, and investment
sales. He has over 30 years of commercial real estate experience in many of the
industry’s core service categories. Tom has extensive experience with representing
occupiers, ground-up development, and asset disposition. His clients benefit from his
keen construction knowledge, which is usually combined with his sales and project
management skills. Tom’s process-driven approach consistently creates value for his
teammates and clients.
Learning to work with a team of property managers and owners, he initiated many
strategies and processes to help create a clear project direction with milestones,
along with a sense of urgency to benefit his clients. Tom has been the lead on many
successful investment sales. Some of the notable investment sales would be the
371,100 SF U.S. Bank Center in St. Paul, Minnesota, and recently the two-building
120,000 SF complex, AV Commons I and AV Commons II, located in Apple Valley,
Minnesota. In addition, Minnetonka Plaza is a three-story, 36,000 SF office facility that
Tom has leased and sold for three separate owners. Tom managed the entire Soleo
Healthcare building portfolio across the country as it related to its renewals, new site
selections, and overall project management.
