Newport Beach, CA (Feb. 17, 2014) – Voit Real Estate

Jason specializes in retail and has more than 23 years of
experience in Commercial Real Estate. At Voit, he leads a 7-member team and
attributes his immense success to hard work, anticipation of client demands and
an amazing team, who shares the same vision and expectations.
“I would not be in this position if it wasn’t for my team,”
stated Jason. “I am so fortunate to
work with a group of people who share my vision, are so loyal and have such a
complete understanding of what they do individually and as a whole. We are always looking for ways to improve
what we do and find better ways to translate our continued efficiencies into
success for our clients.”

Frank Geraci, Executive Vice President in Voit’s Inland
Empire office and the top brokerage professional in the combined markets of
Inland Empire and Los Angeles, specializes in Industrial leasing and sales and
attributes his success to never being satisfied with the status quo.
“The industrial market has been kind to any buyer, seller or
broker that participates in the process, and I have been one of those people,”
commented Frank.
“2014 was another
record year for Industrial in southern California and I am confident that 2015
will be a repeat of last year’s performance, with a lot of help from overseas’
capital and the growth of the nascent e-commerce and mobile commerce industry
which is radically affecting space needs as more consumers avoid bricks and
mortar retail and make their purchases from mobile.
"Voit’s Inland Empire office is well-positioned to help investors,
tenants, developers and sellers capitalize on these dynamics.”

The 2014 top producer at Voit in the Las Vegas region was
Kevin Higgins, Executive Vice President. Kevin has been with Voit since 2002
and specializes in business park investments and leasing.
Kevin and his fellow
Voit Las Vegas team member, Garrett Toft, Senior Vice President, were both
named Top Nevada Brokers in 2014 by Nevada Business Magazine.
“2014 was a pivotal year for the Higgins & Toft team as
well as for the Las Vegas Industrial market,” according to Kevin.
“Prologis
broke ground on the first speculative industrial development in over 7 years.
Our team represented Prologis on the pre-leasing on that 464,000 square-foot
distribution facility while still under construction.
"The Higgins & Toft
team members are helping others make the transition from distressed property
acquisitions to core acquisitions and new development. Las Vegas will see a
great deal of speculative development over the next 12 to 24 months and we are
excited to be at the forefront of this next phase in our market.”

In January, Ryan Miller, Senior Associate in Voit’s Inland
Empire office was named Voit’s 2014 Rising Star.
By receiving this designation,
Ryan has also been invited to the company’s annual broker incentive trip with
Voit’s top producers company-wide.
This year’s trip will be to the five-diamond
Rancho Valencia Resort & Spa in Rancho Santa Fe, ranked #1 in U.S. News
& World Report’s annual ranking of top hotels in the nation.
Ryan began his career with Voit in late 2008 in the heart of
one of the most severe economic recessions our country has ever endured.
After completing his training in Irvine,
Ryan moved to Voit’s Inland Empire office, where he excelled despite the
extreme challenges of the market at the time and has quickly proven himself to
be an integral team member in his office and to the company.
Since 2011 Ryan has nearly doubled his income every year and
truly found his groove in 2014. Ryan’s
work ethic and his confidence to pick up the phone and communicate with any
type of client is unmatched within his peer group.

Confidence and humility are rarely displayed by the same
individual in this business and Ryan embraces both.
He is the first to give credit to a teammate and the first to
recognize areas of improvement in his life both personally and
professionally.
He inspires those
around him by not taking himself too seriously and with the positive energy he
brings to the workplace.
According to his Managing Director, Ian Britton,
“Ryan’s ability to share, grow and invest both in himself and others will only
continue to serve him well as he matures in his career.
"He is a great example of the type of
professional we are proud to have carrying the Voit flag.”
