JLL Acquires Travis Commercial to Expand in South Texas

Jones Lang LaSalle, Inc. JLL which shortened its name to “JLL” has closed the acquisition of San Antonio-based real estate company, Travis Commercial. This acquisition, announced last month is in sync with the company’s growth strategy of expanding its full-service platform in Texas.
 
Travis Commercial is a full-service commercial real estate firm, co-founded by Mark Krenger and Chuck King in 1998 with Jeff Miller joining in 1999. It specializes in property leasing & management, multi-market corporate services, tenant representation, investment sales, and facilities & construction management.

The acquisition seems a strategic fit, as it will give JLL the scope to serve the fast-growing central and south Texas markets. Despite the slowdown in oil production, San Antonio and the greater South Texas region markets have been healthy.

Chicago-based JLL is a leading full-service real estate firm that provides corporate, financial and investment management services to corporations and other real estate owners, users, and investors worldwide.
