SCSPA Hires Columbia Firm NAI Avant Firm to Market Daniel Island Property
November 18, 2009
CHARLESTON, SC – November 18, 2008 – The South Carolina State Ports Authority (SCSPA) has selected NAI Avant of Columbia to help market 495 acres of waterfront property on Daniel Island. Last month, the SCSPA solicited proposals from the South Carolina broker affiliates of nine national real estate firms to represent the organization in the sale of the land.
“After an internal team evaluated proposals from five very qualified firms, NAI Avant was selected,” said Stern, who chairs the SCSPA’s development committee. “NAI brings a large network to the sale of this property, and we hope to benefit from their professional marketing capabilities and their contacts with potential buyers.”
The firm will serve as the agent for the SCSPA and their team will be responsible for all aspects of the sale, from marketing through closing. The next step will involve setting a listing price and assembling materials on the land for potential buyers. NAI Avant, which was founded in 1966, has about 60 associates, brokers and staff.
