CORFAC News

TRI Commercial/CORFAC International has increased its roster by nearly 25 percent over the last six months, adding 12 brokers, four staff and two interns in the East Bay and eight brokers in the Sacramento region. The company, one of Northern California’s top independent commercial real estate brokerages, developed a strategic plan in early 2018 to transform its deep local roots into a stronger more competitive Northern California regional presence. 

East Bay and Sacramento/Roseville Regional Managers Edward F. Del Beccaro and Ed Benoit, CCIM, say the firm is focusing on key hires and empowering existing talent companywide. “We offer competitive splits, exceptional support services and a sophisticated platform. Brokers are quickly noticing that TRI is a great place to pursue their business goals,” Benoit said.  

In Walnut Creek, the robust growth quickly exceeded the capacity of existing office space. “To accommodate the influx of new brokers, we recently moved into a larger upgraded suite of private offices and collaborative work areas,” Del Beccaro said. “When we host our grand opening this summer, we’ll celebrate not only our new space, but also the tremendous vision and diligence of our team as they elevate TRI to new levels of success.” 

Del Beccaro, tasked with growing the company’s East Bay presence, recruited some well-known faces in the brokerage community. Most recently, Senior Directors Robin Newton and Patric Davis joined the firm from Colliers International in Pleasanton. Newton and Davis each have more than 30 years of retail experience representing landlords, tenants and investors. Managing Directors Sonny O’Drobinak and John Sechser joined late last year, and Senior Director Marilyn Hansen moved to the firm last month.  

In Roseville/Sacramento, Benoit and recently promoted Brokerage Manager Cole Sweatt welcomed veteran brokers Bryan Wirt as senior director of retail, and Rodney Ballinger as vice president of multifamily investments, among the year’s bumper crop of new agents. 

Rounding out the team of new recruits in Roseville/Sacramento are retail associates John Hynes and Kannon Kuhn, land and investments associate Abdul Ejaz, investment advisor Steve Lefler, senior industrial associate Ross Relles, land and investments associate Ben Goldman. The Walnut Creek office added Senior Director Matt Hatfield, senior associates Kate Wright and Paul O’Drobinak and associates Jaimi Trunick, Ron Willet, Clayton Temple and Ted Bard.
