No doubt you have noticed the new model cars dotting the road. If not, you will see them later this month proudly on display at Texas State Fair. They represent the latest innovations, newest in design, and proclaim high customer satisfaction.

At CBRE, we are unveiling our own new set of “Wheels.” The distinguished group of 2011 college graduates that have spent the last year in our Wheel Program are now ready for the open road. Like the newest cars, they represent the best in design—having been shaped by an in-depth training program; they have been test-driven—having served under professionals in investment sales, agency leasing, asset services and occupier services; and they are innovative—combining their generation’s skill set with a deep commitment to innovate the real estate industry.

They come in a variety of colors: maroon (Kenzie Chesnut: Texas A&M); burnt orange (Tatum Waughtal: UT Austin); gold and black (Ben Davis: Wake Forest); and even a unique two-tone purple and maroon (Natalie Moore: TCU undergrad and Texas A&M MBA).

You will notice them everywhere—industry events, business pitches, building tours, and more. And they will be sure to impress with their professionalism, understanding of the real estate business, high customer satisfaction and ability to “meet the road” of challenges.

We are proud of our new set of Wheels. They represent our brand, the future of CBRE, and the future of our industry.
