LOUISVILLE, KY. — Cushman & Wakefield will continue to operate in the Louisville metro and surrounding areas through its Alliance partnership with Commercial Kentucky Inc. The Louisville-based commercial real estate brokerage firm was founded in 1973 as Scherer/Casper & Associates. Commercial Kentucky first began its relationship with Cushman & Wakefield in 1981 and expanded its capabilities to include market research, property management and appraisal services, in addition to office, industrial, retail and investment brokerage services. Earlier this year, Cushman & Wakefield entered into an agreement to sell the firm and merge with DTZ. The merger closed September 1, creating a global commercial real estate services provider with 43,000 employees across 60 countries. The merger impacted many major markets where both firms have a presence and client relationships.
“We look forward to continuing our relationship with the new Cushman & Wakefield,” said Phil Scherer, president of Commercial Kentucky. “We have the same team dedicated to providing superior services and insight to our clients, backed by decades of local experience and market knowledge. As a Cushman & Wakefield Alliance partner, our capabilities and opportunities will only continue to grow.”
