NEWPORT BEACH, CALIF., Dec. 2, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SRS Real Estate Partners (SRS) welcomes two new team members to the rapidly growing SRS Investment Properties and National Net Lease Group (NNLG) in their Newport Beach office. Joining SRS are Michael Walseth as senior vice president, and McCall Huske as transaction coordinator, formerly of Walseth Retail Advisors of Marcus & Millichap. The NNLG was established earlier this year and offers net lease and single-tenant investment advisory services nationwide. Together with the SRS Investment Properties team in Newport Beach, there has been tremendous growth with over $1.1 billion on market in 38 states.
Walseth joins SRS with more than 20 years of commercial real estate experience. He began his career in Southern California as a retail leasing specialist at Flock & Avoyer representing shopping center owners throughout San Diego, Orange, and Riverside Counties. Soon after, he joined Archstone-Smith where he focused on acquisition and ground-up developments of Class A multifamily and retail projects throughout Southern California. There, he successfully led teams of entitlement, construction, and property management professionals during the development cycle. During his tenure at Archstone-Smith he successfully acquired, entitled, and developed properties with an estimated investment of over $2.5 billion. Most recently, Walseth was the executive broker of the Walseth Retail Advisors of Marcus & Millichap. There, he was consistently a top producer in the firm’s Newport Beach office leading a team of highly-qualified retail investment professionals specializing in the sale of multi-tenant retail properties nationwide, with a primary focus on Southern California.
Huske joins SRS having worked for the past year with Walseth and his team as a transaction and marketing coordinator. As part of SRS Investment Properties and the NNLG, she will coordinate and manage commercial real estate transactions from origination to closing, acting as a liaison between clients, brokers, lenders, escrow companies, and title companies.
“Michael and McCall bring an exceptional 15-year single and multi-tenant track record, and allow us to broaden our coverage of institutional and private owners, with an emphasis on the local, Southern California markets,” said Patrick R. Luther, managing principal for the National Net Lease Group.
