Have you ever known what it felt like to be the center of attention?  You know what I’m talking about, where when you walked into a room it felt like all eyes were on you.  Maybe you had one of those “EF Hutton” moments, where people hung on every word out of your mouth.

Personally, I can’t say that I do.  Professionally, however, is a different story.  And I say that because right now, it feels like the market that we represent is definitely the center of attention.

Technically, the geographical center-point of the lower 48 continental United States is a little over 400 miles from here as the crow flies, in a little remote area northwest of Topeka in Smith County, Kansas.  But you couldn’t tell it from the calls and emails coming into the NAI Halsey offices; based on those, Jonesboro and the surrounding area must be the center of the real estate universe, let alone the U.S.!

In all my years in commercial real estate (and there is getting to be a lot of years) I don’t know that I recall a time when there was more interest in our community by investors and businesses nationwide.  We are fielding requests for property and information from Atlanta to Los Angeles and all points in between.  This translates into some incredible opportunities for people who own property that needs to be occupied or sold.

Our marketing team is working diligently to retool our new market profile resources based on the latest information available. As we do, we are prepping customized presentations for these inquiries that list the best possible properties in our portfolio for their consideration.  In some categories, we have far more potential buyers than we have property to sell.

In an effort to meet this increased demand, we are aggressively seeking representation opportunities on good properties.  We have slots to fill, and we’re working hard to fill them.

Now, if never before, is THE time to list your commercial, industrial, professional or agricultural property with NAI Halsey.  As they say, the “fish are biting”.  Fortunately for you, we know where they are!

If you have property for lease or sale and we haven’t contacted you already, I apologize.  But don’t let that stop you from contacting my office and letting us share with you all that we can do to help you move your property.  Or if you know of someone else with property that may not get this blog, take a minute to forward the link. 

Right now, it seems all eyes are on this market.  With a little help, we can make sure they concentrate their gaze on your property!
