Frank Larsen

Frank Larsen has spent twenty years advising industrial occupiers on the intersection of real estate and corporate strategy. He understands that for complex organizations, real estate is not merely a line-item cost but a primary driver of operational efficiency and financial performance.

As Senior Vice President at CBRE, Frank specializes in representing occupiers of industrial space in lease negotiations, acquisitions, dispositions, sale-leasebacks, and multi-facility portfolio management across North America and globally. His practice centers on companies whose real estate decisions carry real operational and financial weight — multinational manufacturers, global logistics providers, Fortune 500 distributors, and high-growth companies whose supply chains depend on getting the space decision right.

Frank thrives in high-stakes complexity.. He provides the financial modeling, market intelligence, and negotiating discipline required for multi-jurisdiction leases, cross-border acquisitions, and large-scale portfolio consolidations. Frank also surrounds himself with a strong team to help convert complex real estate variables into clear, defensible business decisions for his clients.

His knowledge of the Charlotte industrial market is anchored in deep data. Frank tracks lease expirations, rent trends, and absorption data across every submarket in the Charlotte MSA, from the I-85 and I-77 corridors through Cabarrus, Gaston, Union, and Rowan counties. That local precision, backed by CBRE’s global platform and research infrastructure, gives clients coverage from the submarket level through the executive boardroom.

Prior to joining CBRE, Frank worked in tenant representation at Equis Corporation, a national firm focused on occupier advisory. He holds a BA in International Business from Sacred Heart University and is licensed in North Carolina and South Carolina.
