Bio
John joined NAI Hiffman in April 2019, following a merger with Nicolson, Porter & List, Inc. a longtime (100+ year old firm) independent firm in the Chicago Industrial market. John spent 26 years with NP&L, specializing in industrial representation of Landlords and Tenants. NP&L also put together partnerships to develop and purchase buildings, mostly on a speculative basis and John participated in ownership of many of these projects. This has allowed John to develop or more well-rounded knowledge of the business from both an ownership perspective as well as a broker’s perspective. Clients over the years range from small, independent owners of buildings and/or businesses to large developers and institutional owners…over his career the local industrial market has evolved from small, local owners to large institutional ownership and REITS. With this, a new affiliation with NAI Hiffman will allow John to better serve his clients with a terrific support team by his side.
