GILROY – Colliers International welcomed Mark Sanchez, 43, as Vice President of Sales and Leasing this July.

The company is a full-service brokerage firm. Sanchez joins the industrial team and works with commercial real estate.

He not only joined a company that shares his commitment to South County, he teamed up with long time competitor, Jeff Barnes.

“We’ve always talked about teaming up. Hopefully the two of us can cover the entire region,” Sanchez said. The two want to keep up with all commercial real estate activity in the area. Barnes is a Senior Vice President with the Gilroy branch.

After studying business management at San Jose State University he joined father, Al Sanchez at the family car dealership, located at 6800 Chestnut in Gilroy. Although Sanchez has always been interested in real estate, he worked as the dealership’s general sales manager for six years. But when offered an interview with BT Commercial Real Estate, he couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

“It was very had to leave the family business but real estate is something that always intrigued me,” Sanchez said, “I had 15 great years with BT Commercial.”

Sanchez joined Colliers International because the company has made a strong commitment to South County, the area he serves.

“I think Silicon Valley is in a lull right now but the next growth is going to be toward the South County,” he said. “We want to be positioned for when that happens.”

Sanchez lives in Gilroy with his wife, Mary, and their four children.
