Holly Duran Real Estate Partners Negotiates Second Tampa Lease for StreetLinks

CHICAGO and TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Holly Duran Real Estate Partners LLC (HDREP) announced today that the firm negotiated the lease enabling its client StreetLinks LLC, an Indianapolis-based appraisal management company, to celebrate the grand opening of the company's new 77,000 square-foot facility in Tampa, Fl. The new facility at Netpark Tampa Bay in Hillsborough County more than doubles StreetLinks' presence in Florida.

Florida Governor Rick Scott traveled to the new facility for the grand opening on Friday to take a tour and support the company's job creation efforts. Now with 190 people in the Tampa Bay area, StreetLinks plans to add as many as 300 new real estate appraisal and data processing jobs during the next three years.  The company opened its first Florida operation in July 2011 with a lease on a 36,000-square-foot facility negotiated by HDREP.  StreetLinks is retaining that facility for training purposes and will continue to utilize its 33,000 square-foot headquarters in Indianapolis from a lease negotiated by HDREP in 2009.

"StreetLinks continues to experience steady growth. The new Tampa location will help us fulfill the resource demands that growth creates. Our Tampa office also serves as an important facility to help ensure business continuity for our clients," said StreetLinks CEO Steve Haslam.

Holly Duran and Jeff Mulder of HDREP represented StreetLinks, along with co-broker Jimmy Johnson, a Tampa-based principal with CNL Commercial Real Estate, which was brought in by HDREP. 

Mulder said: "We have been proud to support the growth needs of our long-standing client StreetLinks with flexible and favorable lease terms at multiple sites."  HDREP has represented StreetLinks and its parent company since 2004.

StreetLinks was named a 2011 Top Workplace in a special edition of the Indianapolis Star.
