Tim Gunnink joined ORION Investment Real Estate as senior vice president, specializing in retail and land investment sales.
Gunnink will use years of experience to help buyers and sellers of shopping centers and retail land accomplish goals.
His background includes an intimate knowledge of retail real estate development, leasing and sales, working through all phases of numerous ground-up projects – from the initial site selection to the divestiture of the asset.
One of the greatest benefits he provides to his clients is his depth of knowledge and experience in nearly all facets of retail real estate. He is known throughout the industry for his ability to find opportunity where others see challenges.
“We’re excited and honored to have Tim Gunnink, an Arizona market leader, join our team. Tim is widely recognized as a retail expert who has worked on behalf of some of the largest landlords and most notable properties in town. Tim’s expertise and 15-year track record of success will help us continue to provide best-in-class service to our clients,” said Ari Spiro, ORION’s president.
In 2009, he formed GDC/RE, a retail real estate services firm dedicated to the success of its clients, specializing in project leasing and investment sales in Arizona, tenant representation throughout the Western U.S., and outsourced real estate & advisory services for retailers and retail property owners nationally.
As president and CEO, he directed the day-to-day operations and oversaw a team of 20 agents and staff with offices in Phoenix and Las Vegas. GDC/RE was acquired by Newmark Grubb Knight Frank in 2014.
