“Our national specialty groups, which focus on each major property sector, are set up to deliver optimum services to our clients while developing the skills, tools and communication of our investment professionals,” says Kerin.

“Al is uniquely qualified to continue our expansion and rapid growth in the commercial leased investment arena, given his extensive background as a successful agent, manager and senior executive with the firm and his relationships with major investors nationally.”

In 1985, Pontius began his career with Marcus & Millichap as a sales associate, and in this capacity he consistently ranked among the firm’s top 25 investment specialists.

Pontius was promoted to first vice president in 2000 and to senior vice president in 2002. Also in 2002, he was promoted to national director of the NOIPG. He was elected to managing director in 2007.

“I am excited to bring all of our resources as a highly specialized national firm to owners and investors, and help them navigate the market successfully,” says Pontius. “We have great momentum in leased investment sales and have become a leading source of market research and I look forward to building on that track record,” he continues.

Pontius’ industry trade affiliations include ICSC, NAIOP and ULI, where he is regularly called upon to present on U.S. real estate investment trends. He attended San Francisco State University.

Pontius replaces long-time partner Bernard J. Haddigan (lower left photo), a former senior vice president and managing director, who retired from the firm.
