Harvey, Hanna & Associates Inc. announces that Dan Rattay of CB Richard Ellis has been selected as its 2013 Broker of the Year. Since its inception, this is the first time any individual broker has won the award for two consecutive years.

In the midst of a recovering but still fragile real estate market, Rattay contributed to HHA’s continued success in 2013.

Rattay successfully negotiated the renewal of a multiyear lease for Zenith Products Corporation at 499 Ships Landing Way at the Twin Spans Business Park in New Castle, HHA’s premier 21st century business campus.  Zenith provides storage and organizational products to retail household and business markets.

Rattay also facilitated the multiyear renewal of Lyon, Conklin, & Company, Inc., a FergusonEnterprise, at 200 Anchor Mill Rd. at Twin Spans Business Park, thereby preserving local jobs and accommodating partially vacated space for new tenants in this building.  Ferguson is the largest distributor of residential and commercial heating and cooling products.

Twin Spans Business Park is routinely considered the premier distribution campus in the Mid Atlantic region, featuring 2 million square feet of Class A commercial warehouse space spread across 135 acres of land along the Delaware River.

“Dan’s accomplishments were significant, again demonstrating his many attributes of grit, determination, innovation, and a commitment to excellence,” stated Thomas J. Hanna, HHA vice president and chief operating officer.

In recognition of Rattay’s achievements, HHA will donate $3,000 in the name of CB Richard Ellis to The Delaware KIDS (Kids In Distressed Situations) Fund.  This charitable fund was established by HHA to support a wide array of causes for local youth, including specialized support for hunger, shelter, and tuition scholarships.

Harvey, Hanna & Associates Inc. is a full-service commercial real estate redevelopment company featuring 3,000,000 square feet of prime location commercial, retail, and industrial real estate in Delaware.
