Led by seasoned Principals Mark Ayers, Tim Brotherton and Edwin Yarbrough, formerly of Jones Lang LaSalle/The Staubach Company, CresaPartners’ new Charlotte office will offer tenants a holistic perspective to the real estate process during tough economic times.

“We believe the economic climate creates tremendous opportunity to advise tenants in our market about one of their three largest expenses—real estate—and its impact on their bottom line,” said Ayers, managing principal, CresaPartners Charlotte.

“It’s the ideal time to establish the foundation of our firm and strengthen our cohesive team, who has successfully worked together in the past.”

Prior to founding CresaPartners’ Charlotte office, Mark Ayers served as managing principal of The Staubach Company in Charlotte, negotiating sizeable transactions for clients such as Time Warner Cable, Maersk, Senderra, Moore & Van Allen, Enovia and Wachovia.
