Gordon Lamphere J.D. 🏭 CRE

Greatful to work with @VanVlissingenCo, an experienced team with a vast network of occupier and investment contacts. We leased a high-credit tenant, renewed, and maximized profit for the owners with a direct sale. So thankful for the opportunity to serve our clients!

How Chicago’s location and AI are shaping industrial demand-> keycrew.co/journal/chicag…

Honored to be featured by KeyCrew discussing how food, pharma, and logistics tenants are reshaping industrial demand across Chicagoland. The real estate needs of these sectors are evolving fast, and Northern Illinois is at the center of it.

@EvanGoldmanEsq When you gotta bill you gotta bill.

@Gordon_CRE Saw this at MSG last weekend, too.

A Chicago native and transplant working remote from Wriggly Field. Only question: What are their jobs?

Data is quietly becoming the most valuable amenity in commercial real estate.

@DMAC_19 Congrats! What a blessing :)

Pray for my bank account 🙏 #4 on the way.

Watching a broker take a property you pitched on and list it at 3x your valuation

Shift From Location To Power In Commercial Real Estate With Britt Burt - RFP 92 How much of the data center boom is really about real estate and how much of it is about power? In this episode of The Real Finds Podcast, Gordon Lamphere sits down with Britt Burt of Industrial Info Resources to unpack one of the most important forces shaping commercial real estate, industrial development, and infrastructure investment today: the growing electricity demand. Britt brings nearly four decades of experience covering the power industry, including generation, transmission, distribution, and the infrastructure behind large-scale industrial development. The conversation focuses on what is really driving data center growth, how site selection works in practice, and why the future value of many properties may be tied less to traditional location dynamics and more to access to power, interconnection, and infrastructure. Gordon and Britt also discuss why so many announced projects never get built, the biggest mistakes site selectors and investors make when underwriting data center opportunities, and why “speed to power” may be one of the most important concepts in real estate going forward. They also get into common public misconceptions around data centers, including concerns around water use, grid strain, and local opposition, while explaining how developers are adapting through behind-the-meter power, infrastructure investment, and long-term energy strategies. This is a valuable conversation for investors, developers, occupiers, industrial users, and anyone trying to understand the second- and third-order effects of AI infrastructure on real estate. Topics discussed include: - What is driving the rapid increase in power demand - Why data centers are the biggest force behind new electricity demand - Where data centers are being built across the United States - Why Texas, Arizona, Virginia, and the Gulf Coast continue to attract development - The biggest misconceptions people have about data centers - How behind-the-meter power is changing the economics of development - Why stranded power and interconnection agreements matter so much - The most common mistakes made in data center site selection - Why speed to power can matter more than permitting timelines - The supply chain, turbine, labor, and pipeline constraints slowing development - How to tell whether a proposed project is likely to actually get built - Why older data centers may need major modernization for AI workloads - How access to power may increasingly determine real estate value About The Real Finds Podcast: Hosted by Gordon Lamphere, The Real Finds Podcast features conversations with operators, investors, developers, policy thinkers, and business leaders shaping commercial real estate and the built world. The show focuses on practical insights, market trends, and the ideas changing how people invest, build, and use space.

@HowardRoark90 We exclusively work in greater Chicagoland :)

@Gordon_CRE Open to southeast? Ga/Sc, specifically?

Who are my office buyers out there? 🤔 Anyone actively in the market?

Something about build baby build & Supply / demand…

The most effective marketing change our company made was rewriting all our content for a semi-literate audience.

This is the most Wharton thing ever

@hitsamty The problem is hate views can be currency these days.

Absolute peak wanker behavior. In the days of yore, you'd get locked in the stocks and pelted with rotten fruit for hating on someone's success like this.

@JeffAuerbach3 @jasonjosephlee

@jasonjosephlee I’ve been a real estate agent full time for two years pal and things are going great.

People in real estate are dropping like flies right now So many brokers are starving So many syndicators hanging up their cleats So many service providers are begging for work

How have the rules of the commercial real estate game changed? Grateful to have Elatia Abate on this week's Real Finds Podcast to take a deep dive into AI and the future of work.

@justinaknope 73% of employees are caregivers, navigating the caring economy is essential for recruiting top talent youtu.be/XFUiYB6dW_s?si…

do hedge fund recruiters just have a bunch of elite night nurses on retainer?

@AdamB1438 Visualizing it now

@Gordon_CRE What are some worse classes than that?

Probably about to turn down the chance to buy a 50 year old fully leased office building... at a 15% cap.
