Congratulations to APG’s Jim Anthony, CEO and Founder; Greyson Tavolacci, Commercial Investment Sales; and Colby Mitchell, Land Advisory & Investment Sales, for being named CoStar Power Brokers for Q4 2024.
Jim, Greyson, and Colby earned this recognition for successfully leasing 7601 Glenwood Avenue in Raleigh. This high-visibility site spans 8.52 acres and has been leased to Westgate Auto Group, which has added the Auction Direct USA brand to its portfolio.
Westgate has signed a 10-year NNN lease with an option to purchase the property, which includes an existing facility of over 20,000 square feet. This acquisition marks Westgate Group’s seventh dealership in the Raleigh-Wake Forest area, and all employees of Auction Direct have been retained.
“We at APG are so pleased to have seen a business miracle. In less than 30 days from start to finish, and with zero interruptions to the business, APG and Ehsan Khani’s team negotiated and closed a business purchase, alongside a large property negotiation. This is great news for Raleigh and for the parties involved,” stated Jim Anthony.
Congratulations to all for a job well done!
