What are you most excited about in the coming year? Corporate Realty’s relationship with the Benson organization [who purchased Corporate Realty in December, 2021] and what opportunities this will afford us going forward. We have enjoyed great success since our inception, and we have amazing clients. Our relationship with the Benson organization is going to allow us to expand the services we offer, the markets we serve, and the overall depth of our team. These additional services and market penetration will allow us to better serve our clients and the community.

What is the biggest challenge facing your industry today? It is easy to identify challenges in New Orleans. Crime, the condition of our streets, and garbage pick-up come to mind. Notwithstanding these issues, New Orleans remains a place that people want to live, work and visit. The biggest challenge and opportunity I believe we face is our ability to pursue, procure and retain white-collar jobs. A strong tax base in New Orleans allows us not only to address some of our day-to-day challenges, but makes our city more vibrant, more interesting and more welcoming to our citizens and our visitors.
