CBRE has announced that Grant Keyes has joined the firm’s Charlotte office as Senior Vice President with its Office Investor Leasing team. In this role, Keyes will work alongside Joe Franco, Kris Westmoreland, Stephanie Spivey, Addison Stratton and Benjamin Speir, advising owners and investors on leasing strategy and asset performance throughout the region.
Keyes brings more than a decade of commercial real estate experience, joining CBRE from Stream Realty Partners, where he advised prominent investors on office and medical outpatient leasing strategy. Prior to Stream, he held leasing roles at JLL and Cushman & Wakefield, building a strong track record helping clients enhance asset value through thoughtful leasing and marketing strategies.
“Grant is a highly respected professional with deep relationships across the Charlotte market,” said Brett Gray, Charlotte Market Leader and Carolinas & Tennessee Region Lead, CBRE. “We’re seeing strong momentum in the office and healthcare sectors, with leasing activity continuing to build across Charlotte and the broader region. As owners look to capture that demand and position their assets for success, Grant’s experience and market expertise strengthen our platform and support our continued growth across the Carolinas.”
Throughout his career, Keyes has completed more than 700 transactions totaling over $750 million in deal consideration. A Charlotte native, Keyes earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
“I’m excited to join CBRE and work alongside Joe, Kris, Stephanie and the broader team,” said Keyes. “I’ve always believed that successful leasing starts with understanding the client, the market and each property’s unique story. The combination of CBRE’s platform and a team with exceptional local market knowledge provides a strong foundation to serve clients at the highest level. Momentum is stronger than ever in Charlotte and the broader Carolinas, and I look forward to helping owners and investors capitalize on opportunities across the region.”
