Alissa Saccomanno

I joined Colliers International in 2008 as an executive administrative assistant working with a team of executive vice presidents specializing in office services representing both Landlord and Fortune 500 Tenants locally in Chicago and nationwide. Since 2008, my  team has expanded to include not only additional members of the Office Services Group but also members of the Land Advisory, Retail Investments, Senior Housing Development and National Operations Management Groups.

I play an active role in the day-to-day transaction process both from a Landlord and Tenant Representation perspective which has given me a wealth of in-depth knowledge to how deals are conducted on both sides of the commercial real estate spectrum. My skills at problem solving, the ability to multi-task and handle rapidly changing priorities and following projects through to completion has made me an integral part of the team. In 2016 and 2017, I was nominated for the Colliers Service Excellence Award.

I am heavily involved in the beginning phases of surveying particular markets, running demographic and traffic count reports, coordinating building tours, and compiling proposals into detailed comparisons provided for the building Owners and/or Tenants.  I also manage the teams’ ongoing marketing and communication process, including the development and distribution of marketing reports (weekly, quarterly and monthly), brochures, direct mail pieces and daily routine correspondence.

My experience includes both single assignments and multi-market account Tenant Representation work. Partial list of clients assisted include Sara Lee Corporation, Honeywell, Allstate Insurance, Charles Schwab & Co., Nuveen Investments, Oppenheimer & Co., Valspar, and Lincoln Financial.  Major agency leasing assignments include Faison & Associates (842,000 SF), Amcraft Construction (628,000 SF), John B. Sanfilippo & Sons (436,000 SF), Draper & Kramer (250,000 SF), McKnight Capital (240,000 SF), AEGON (158,000 SF) and American Landmark Properties (135,000 SF).

I am an active member of the WINGS program helping the effort to end domestic violence and homelessness; Live4Lali in creating drug awareness, use/misuse and overdose protection;  Artists Illustrating Meaningful Messages (AIMM), a music and arts afterschool program; and National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) in conjunction with the Brandon Marshall Foundation.
