Why We're Great >

Matt Scales has a background that began in real estate development, working on commercial developments around the Chicagoland area and parts of the United States. 

Working on property assemblages and development projects is a true love for Matt. His completed assemblage and development projects include notables such as: the Hillside Town Center in Hillside, IL – a 32 acre multi-property assemblage and subsequent redevelopment into a Target anchored shopping center with a Holiday Inn Express; the acquisition and redevelopment of 3 Hooters branded card room casinos in the State of Washington; and the assemblage and subsequent disposition of 20,000 SF spread across multiple properties in Chicago’s Fulton Market neighborhood. 

 

Matt’s commercial real estate experience includes: land assemblages; acquisition; development projects; tenant representation; disposition of retail, industrial and mixed use properties; acquisition and sales of operating business portfolios with real estate.

Matt holds a bachelor’s degree in Urban and Regional Planning from the University of Illinois, an Illinois Real Estate Broker License and certification in project management.  He also volunteers on the board of directors for the One for the Kids Chicago-based charity organization and was appointed to public service on the Westmont, Illinois Planning and Zoning Commission.

With over 20 years of commercial real estate experience in property ownership, management and property valuation, Marty offers his clients a unique specialization of the understanding of the components of value and the factors that can affect it.

 

Since 1997, Marty has been appraising commercial real estate and has received the two highest designations of the Appraisal Institute (MAI, AI-GRS). He is currently licensed in 10 states and offers a broad knowledge of the local market as well as a national perspective on value. 

 

Marty saw the need for his advanced understanding of the valuation of real estate, FF&E and business value in the brokerage world.  He works with clients as a business advisor and provides a deep understanding of the market, the trends and the multitude of factors that can influence it. Marty has the ability to perform feasibility studies that gives the client the ability to look into different opportunities with a single property and analyze what scenario will generate the greatest return for the client.
