Since 1999, Greg has focused on representing clients interested in retail opportunities in Colorado. Greg continues to provide a variety of retail services including acquisition, disposition, and leasing services for a wide range of landlords, tenants, investors, and developers in Colorado.
In regard to acquisitions and dispositions, Greg brings a wide range of experience in properly positioning and marketing retail properties, as well as sales negotiations. Greg helps clients properly value the assets and identify the most advantageous entrance and exit points within market cycles. He has successfully sold retail pad sites and shopping centers throughout the area. The identification and the aggressive pursuit of the targeted buyers that have been active in the market has been a key to closing transactions in a timely manner.

Leasing transactions have included Target, 7-Eleven, Staples, PetSmart, TJ Maxx, Papa John’s, Cricket, Fodor’s Billiards, Bird Dog BBQ, Hand & Stone Massage, SportClips, Pinot’s Pallet, Domino’s, Woodmen Liquor, State Farm, Academy Kid’s Dental & Vision, Tiger Rock Karate, Yo-Yogurt, Taste of Philly, Sushi O Sushi, China Menu, Happy Time Restaurant, Anytime Fitness, Wingstop, Subway, AT&T, Marco’s Pizza, Painting with a Twist, Dental-One, Sprint, Verizon, Jimmy Johns, Wade’s Café, Jackson Hewitt, Drive-In Autosound, Indus Modern Kitchen, Ruffing It, Postal Annex, Josh N John’s Ice Cream, Batteries Plus, Massage Envy, Jenny Craig, Metro PCS, Heuser Chiropractic, Ross, Guitar Center, and Little Caesar’s Pizza.
