CBRE in Vancouver has beefed up its moving services, hiring moving industry veteran Jason Shanks to head its business transition and move management team.
According to CBRE, rising land values and rental rates in the Vancouver and Burnaby markets are pressuring industrial facility owners/occupiers to relocate. Many are turning to Delta, Surrey and Pitt Meadows, where there is now significant pre-lease and sales activity in upcoming developments, the company noted.
Shanks, a 20-year veteran of the moving industry, will manage a CBRE group that performs more than 300,000 corporate moves annually.
