NAI Global

NAI Global is a commercial real estate brand built on a network of independently owned member brokerage firms. A client works with the local member office, which handles leasing, investment sales, property management and advisory in its own market, with the rest of the network available when an assignment crosses markets.

Member firms are entrepreneurial local brokerages that join for referrals, shared marketing tools, training and access to other members' deal flow. NAI Global supplies the platform, brand and resources rather than employing the brokers, and coordinates teams across offices for corporate and institutional clients; past corporate clients named on the site include Hertz, Pepsi, Nike, Coca-Cola Enterprises, Citibank and Dow Chemical.

The network reports 325 offices and 5,800 local market professionals, handling more than $20 billion in commercial real estate transactions annually across office, industrial, retail, land and hospitality. Its capital markets group covers dispositions for institutional and investor clients, debt at all levels of the capital stack including first lien and mezzanine for acquisition, refinance and bridge scenarios, live and sealed bid auctions run on LightBox Real Capital Markets, and note sales, with more than $900 million in non-performing note sales executed.

Because each office is separately owned, depth and specialization vary by market. Confirm which member firm covers the property, and what that firm itself has transacted, rather than relying on the network's aggregate numbers.
