building the leading Investment Sales group in Texas has been a top priority of
ours for a while,” said Jon Silberman, Managing Partner, NAI Partners.
“Adding
an executive of Scott’s caliber, experience and capabilities will turbocharge
the growth of our Investment Sales business, further enhance the scope of property
types we sell and acquire for our clients, and elevate the overall level of
service we provide. We’re very excited to welcome Scott—both to the firm, and
to Texas from Florida!”
“From the day they first reached out to me, I
was deeply impressed by NAI Partners’ platform, professionalism, and
accomplishments, and I couldn’t be more excited to join the world-class team
here,” said Mr. Lunine.
“We’ve already hit the ground running with key senior
hires in our Austin and San Antonio offices, and I intend for us to be the top
Investment Sales team in the state of Texas in five years.”

& Millichap, where he led the Miami, Florida office’s Investment Sales
practice. During his time at Marcus & Millichap, Mr. Lunine grew the South
Florida region’s team from 29 to 80 agents, and doubled sales revenue in just

“One of our core values is always putting our
clients first, and doing so requires us to have the very best talent, which is
why we work hard to identify top-level professionals who are great at what they
do and are looking for the right culture and career-building opportunity,” said
Travis Rodgers, Executive Vice President, NAI Partners.

exceeded that criteria, and brings a tremendous track record of helping
