PROPERTY
& FACILITY MANAGEMENT
Since
its inception,
U.S. Equities
has been deeply
committed to providing
the finest asset
management services
possible. Fundamental
to the company's
organization and
the successful
achievement of
its asset management
programs is a
dedicated, skilled
group of management
and marketing
professionals
who represent
a dominant force
in the marketplace.
Asset management,
specifically the
management of
high traffic,
mixed-use properties;
high-profile office
towers; and corporate
facilities, has
always been one
of the cornerstones
of U.S. Equities'
business. |

LEASING
A
major part of
the Asset Management
Services Group
success has come
from its strength
in developing
and implementing
strategic product
leasing plans.
U.S. Equities
has one of the
most talented
and experienced
product teams
(leasing or sales
on behalf of owners
and landlords)
in the metropolitan
Chicago market.
Our
philosophy centers
on the creation
of a unified marketing
concept for each
property, which
sets it apart
from its competition.
That concept is
carried through
all phases of
marketing, leasing
and management.
We believe the
cornerstone to
any successful
leasing or sales
effort is an organized
approach to its
implementation
and "hands-on"
management of
all aspects of
the marketing
process.
Throughout
the years, U.S.
Equities management
and leasing services
has consistently
achieved performance
levels that lead
the market. This
success has been
reached both in
bringing new buildings
and properties
to the market
(One Financial
Place, 20 North
Michigan Avenue)
as well as in
cases in which
we had to reposition
existing properties
(Willis Tower, 737 N. Michigan, 20 North Clark,
55 West Monroe,
150 North Michigan
Avenue, Santa
Fe Building, John
Hancock Center).
This
kind of success
comes from knowing
our product, knowing
the market and
knowing how to
access that market
to maximize the
asset performance
and benefit to
its owner. |
