JLL has recently announced its acquisition of Raise Commercial Real Estate, a technology-driven brokerage that utilizes a digital real estate platform to provide client solutions. This move is in line with JLL’s commitment to delivering exceptional services throughout the leasing cycle.
Raise offers a cloud-based application that facilitates seamless integration between clients and their advisors at every stage of the leasing process. From transaction and lease management to workplace and portfolio analytics, this technology will complement JLL’s existing leasing tools like Blackbird, enabling brokers to guide clients towards confident business decisions.
According to Andy Poppink, CEO of Markets Advisory at JLL, this acquisition showcases their global approach and dedication towards leveraging technology for superior client outcomes across all stages of the leasing journey.
Justin Bedecarre, Co-Founder and CEO of Raise CRE will now serve as Head of Americas Leasing Innovation under Andy Poppink’s leadership. He will oversee the integration process into JLL while expanding Raise’s reach globally. Bedecarre also expressed excitement about joining forces with JLL in bringing their innovative approach to clients worldwide.
