Greysteel, a leading national commercial real estate and capital markets services firm, today announced the strategic acquisition of Nara Advisors, a San Diego-headquartered commercial real estate advisory firm with a strong presence throughout Southern California. This acquisition marks a significant milestone in Greysteel’s inorganic growth strategy, increasing its market share and service capabilities on the West Coast, particularly in the multifamily and retail sectors.

Nara’s CEO & Founder, Jason Lee, will join Greysteel in a senior leadership role. The transaction brings experienced advisors to the Greysteel platform in key Southern California markets including San Diego, Orange County, Long Beach and the Inland Empire where Nara maintains offices. The integration of this expert team will accelerate client service, combining deep local expertise with Greysteel’s national platform to deliver superior results for investors.

Nara advisors specialize in the multifamily and retail sectors, including investment sales, 1031 exchanges, off-market transactions, and development opportunities. The firm’s record is rooted in deep brokerage expertise and longstanding investor relationships across core SoCal submarkets.

“Welcoming Jason and the entire Southern California team to Greysteel is a transformative step for our firm and our clients,” said Lacey Willard, Executive Vice President at Greysteel. “We are impressed with the proven track record, entrepreneurial culture, and deep roots in Southern California, making this a perfect match for our platform. This acquisition is a significant milestone in our ongoing strategy to expand our presence and influence in every market we serve.”

Built on cross-market collaboration, Greysteel’s platform ensures this acquisition delivers value, well beyond Southern California.
