CBRE’s network will allow me to extend my resources beyond Northeast Florida as office occupiers are looking for a more holistic approach to create efficiencies and cost savings.”

According to CBRE Research, office leasing in Jacksonville has increased 25 percent during the first nine months of 2022 compared to the same time in 2021. During 2022, over 1.3 million square feet has been leased with an average size lease totaling 8,074 square feet.
