Cushman Wakefield Alliance

In 2002, Cushman & Wakefield embarked on its National Alliance initiative aligning with independent real estate companies in strategic markets. Alliance firms are best-in-class independently owned and operated companies, including former C&W-owned offices, with which C&W has a history of successful business relationships. Members of the C&W Alliance Program are carefully screened before entering into a contractual agreement that stipulates rigorous qualification criteria, operating requirements, and ongoing performance measures in order to provide consistent, high-quality services to clients. Clients benefit from the C&W Alliance Program through access to C&W's best practices, standardized research methodologies, and our strategic approach in assessing each client's needs and implementing solutions that fit the client's strategic, operational and financial goals. This is accomplished through our core services which include Agency/Brokerage, Capital Markets and Client Solutions.

C&W opened its doors in 1917. Three-quarters of a century later, it stands as one of the industry's most distinguished and accomplished full-service real estate providers. Originally a small local firm with a handful of employees and a vision, C&W now spans six continents and is comprised of more than 15,000 professionals. C&W's sphere of expertise encompasses a full complement of integrated services covering office, industrial and retail property sectors. C&W continues to evolve-embracing new technologies and directions, while remaining true to the ideal that has carried us to prominence: an unwavering commitment to the client.

An effective real estate services provider has a thorough knowledge of its markets, and this level of knowledge requires market presence. C&W's global presence is extremely broad, covering 58 countries through 231 offices. This degree of coverage enables C&W and its alliance members to provide comprehensive services for clients with localized requirements as well as for those with more expansive national or international real estate portfolios. In both cases, service is professional, attentive, and supported by the full and integrated resources of the entire C&W organization.

Cornerstone is pleased to be a part of this premier firm having become a member of the Cushman & Wakefield Alliance program in 2002. The partnership with C&W provides the opportunity to offer a full range of services to our clients including Asset Services, Brokerage Services, Corporate Services, Financial Services, Research Services and Valuation Advisory Services.
