Why Weitzman is expanding office services to Central Texas

AUSTIN--Weitzman, one of the largest commercial real estate services firms based in Texas, is expanding its existing Corporate Services platform to Central Texas.

The expansion of the division includes Associate Andrew Alvarado, who will collaborate on office brokerage with Epple and Weitzman’s Dallas-based President of Corporate Services Division, Larry Denisoff. Prior to Alvarado joining Weitzman, his commercial real estate experience includes work as an associate and in asset management with Austin-based Preston Properties, a commercial real estate firm.
