Bonnie Halley

Senior vice president

Colliers

Background: Halley, a Phoenix native, spent 19 years in bank management and commercial lending before becoming a commercial real estate broker in 2004. She earned the Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM) designation — an honor for leaders who have a proven record of success and demonstrated mastery of financial, market and investment analysis — in 2009 and joined Colliers in April 2018, where she is a senior vice president. Halley and her team specialize in sales and leasing of industrial commercial real estate.

Inspiration: “I have a strong desire to provide relevant information and solutions to our clients. This allows them to make the best decisions to maximize their return on their investment in the commercial real estate industry.”

Source of pride: “Exceeding our clients’ expectations brings a great sense of satisfaction. Knowing the market, we recently positioned a property that sold for 40% higher than their recent MAI appraisal. We have repeatedly taken high vacancy business parks to 100% occupancy in relatively short timeframes. Outperforming the market brings a great deal of satisfaction to our clients and our team at Colliers.”

Professional support system: “Daryl Burton. He trusted our team with leasing almost one-third of his entire 10.5 million-square-foot industrial real estate portfolio. Daryl is an unassuming business leader in commercial real estate and philanthropy. His encouragement, tenacity, and ability to tackle the difficult has been an inspiration to me and countless others."

Surprising fact: “Looking at me, you might not realize that I understand and speak Spanish. I lived in Central America for about seven years when our children were very young. I will eavesdrop on your conversation while conducting property tours.”
