Colliers International announced today that it has taken a major step in the continued growth of its U.S. platform with the hiring of Warren Dahlstrom as president of its Investment Services Group.
In addition to overseeing Colliers International’s investment services group in the U.S., Dahlstrom will be charged with growing the organization through an aggressive business development strategy and key hires of top-tier brokers and other professionals. He is based in Washington, D.C.
“Warren is a unique professional,” said Dylan Taylor, chief executive officer for Colliers International in the U.S. “He has the ideal combination of experience with large and smaller firms, has spent time as an entrepreneur and embodies the kind of collaborative and client centric approach that makes him a perfect fit for Colliers International. The entire organization is looking forward to his immediate contribution to our strategic growth plan.”
“I’ve experienced a number of different approaches and cultures at the firms where I have worked,” Dahlstrom said. “But none come close to Colliers International. Its business model encompasses everything today’s real estate services clients are looking for. I am excited to be part of the organization’s continued march to the top of the industry.”
Dahlstrom has represented owners and investors of institutional commercial real estate since 1986 and has sold, financed or built property valued in excess of $6 billion across the office, retail, industrial, land, hotel and apartment sectors. He has broad relationships with institutional clients, both foreign and domestic and also specializes in capital markets, strategic portfolio management, land, development and competitive assessments advisory services. Last year he arranged a $60 million development joint venture between London-based Grosvenor and JBG Companies of Washington, D.C.
Most recently, Dahlstrom was the principal of his own firm, Dahlstrom Real Estate Advisors. Previously, he spent nearly 13 years as a top producer for Cushman & Wakefield, where he led the investment sales team in Washington, D.C. Earlier in his career, he led sales teams at Carey Winston Company (now Transwestern) and Grubb & Ellis. Dahlstrom is the recipient of numerous awards and honors for his professional achievements, including NAIOP’s Deal of the Year in 2008.
He is a lecturer at Georgetown and Johns Hopkins Universities, and has presented at numerous real estate trade organizations including the Urban Land Institute, the Building Owners and Managers Association and the International Council of Shopping Centers. Dahlstrom is a Full Member of the Urban Land Institute and sits on the board of the Arlington Partnership for Affordable Housing.
A graduate of the University of Virginia, Dahlstrom earned an M.B.A. from the Leeds School of Business at the University of Colorado at Boulder.
