GVA Advantis Grows Orlando Office With Two Associates


ORLANDO, FL – (May 27, 2009) – GVA Advantis recently added two new brokerage associates in its Orlando office: Connie Snyder, (top right photo) Associate Director, Office Services, and Don Rudolph, (middle left photo) CCIM, Associate, Office & Industrial Services.

Both come with rich backgrounds in diverse areas of commercial real estate. Snyder recently left her position as Medical Office Specialist of RE/MAX 200 Realty’s Commercial Division having developed a successful niche in the medical office building segment, generally regarded as a somewhat recession-proof business.

Rudolph, who earned his Certified Commercial Investment Member designation in 2007 and recently served as associate of office and industrial services with NAI Realvest, brings experience in land, office and industrial services, but also tenant representation, investment and buyer brokerage services.

“Connie and Don complement our team and round out the services the Orlando office provides. Along with our steadily growing property management division, I feel like there’s nothing we can’t accomplish right now,” said Lisa Bailey,(bottom right photo) senior director of office & industrial services of GVA Advantis’ Orlando office.

At a time when many brokerage firms are not hiring or even letting representatives go, GVA Advantis’ corporate office, based in Washington, D.C., is continuing the growth plan it outlined last year when the company announced its recapitalization.

With a concentration of offices in Florida, the health and growth of the Orlando branch is central to the company’s strategy. In addition to the new brokers joining the ranks, Orlando’s leasing division has won nine new leasing assignments and the property management division has won two assignments since the beginning of the year.

“We are grateful that our company sees the need and value in adding talent at this challenging time, and we are grateful for the expertise that both Connie and Don bring to the table,” said Bailey. “The time was right to make this needed addition.”
