Bio
Professional Summary
Barry Zoob joined Colliers International in April of 1999. His areas of emphasis include corporate real estate relationships, and the sales and leasing of high-grade commercial office space. Barry also focuses on investment sales for individual and institutional clients. His responsibilities encompass listing negotiation, marketing, contract negotiation, tenant representation, and strategic services coordination.
Zoob's significant accomplishments include: supporting the Gallup Organization in their site selection of their 60-acre campus; the representation on a national basis of a major publicly held information services company; the sale of a 100-acre parcel of land; the sale and development of a large previously undeveloped parcel of land to a national big-box retailer; represented one of the nation’s largest privately owned companies (Tenaska) on a 100,000-square-foot build-to-suit; and site selection for a build-to-suit for a Fortune 100 company.
Barry’s substantive business background as an owner and as an executive enables him to offer insightful expertise to corporate and institutional clients. He also served as the leader of Colliers International’s Office Advisory Services team and has completed over $450 million in transactions.
Beyond business, Barry still carries a 5 handicap on the golf course and spends a lot of time with his 3 children and 7 grandchildren. And as important as any other part of his life is his commitment to community service and his 40 year term as a member of the board of directors of the Nebraska Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is a testimony to Barry's commitment to make this world a better place and now serves as Chairman Emeritus. .?
