Katz & Associates announced its expansion in the Southeast with the opening of a new office in Jacksonville, Fla. The seasoned brokerage team of Katie Figg and Nancy Sumner, who join Katz from Colliers International, will lead the office.
Figg and Sumner bring extensive experience across a diverse range of retail real estate. Their current landlord portfolio encompasses 2.2 million square feet, including grocery-anchored centers, power centers, boutique retail and mixed-use developments, as well as 191 acres of land.
This strategic growth strengthens Katz’s ability to provide hyper-local expertise and dedicated service in the Jacksonville market.
“We’re thrilled to welcome back Katy Figg and to welcome Nancy Sumner to the Katz team,” said Brian Katz, CEO of Katz & Associates. “Their deep market knowledge, client-first approach, and outstanding reputations make them the perfect team to lead our Jacksonville office. This is a significant step forward in our growth across Florida.”
In their new roles at Katz & Associates, Figg and Sumner will continue to lead their robust landlord representation portfolio while also expanding into tenant representation, further strengthening the firm’s capabilities in the region.
Figg worked at Katz in North Carolina from 2010 to 2013. Most recently, she was vice president of retail services in northeast Florida at Colliers. Before that, she was a director for Franklin Street Retail Services where she helped oversee a portfolio of more than 3.1 million square feet for national and regional clients.
Sumner was director of retail services at Colliers International. Prior to that, she served as a north Florida market partner and senior leasing advisor for The Shopping Center Group where she managed 40 properties totaling more than 7.5 million square feet of retail space.
