Testimonials
Gramercy has a sizable portfolio of properties located in many states, and I can say without hesitation that Colliers Jacksonville office brokerage team is one of the top groups we have worked with across the country. Chuck Diebel and team all go out of their way to provide best in class service, no matter how large or small the deal is. They demonstrate exceptional market knowledge, a strong understanding of the mechanics of leasing and sales, and have a “client first” attitude that drives how they operate at all times.
Most of the large brokerage firms in today’s commercial real estate industry have access to (more or less) the same information platforms, databases and tools for marketing their properties, so it comes down to the individual agents to separate themselves from the competition. Colliers has done just that on a consistent basis and have delivered great results for us again and again. They are an important market partner for us in Jacksonville.

My Team
Matt has over 18 years of experience in commercial real estate in Northeast Florida. He has completed sales and leases totaling more than $550 million in the disciplines of retail, industrial, office and land.
His brokerage activities are focused on site selection, asset acquisition, disposition and leasing with an emphasis on retail and office properties.
In my role as a Client Services Specialist, I provide support for highly productive brokers, Chuck Diebel, Matt Entriken, Jason Hinson and Robert Selton, and act as the point person for the Client Services Team. This support includes administrative duties, research and project management, transaction processing, proposals and presentations, database management and client support.
Prior to joining Colliers International in April of 2018, I gained experience in the residential Real Estate field. I was the Office Manager for a Weichert Real Estate office in Connecticut, and provided administrative and contract processing support to the broker and the agents of the office. In 2016, I moved to Jacksonville, and accepted a position at Buck & Buck Realtors. I extended my area of expertise into residential property management, while handling tenant related inquiries and all aspects of managing over 250 single family homes.
