The Future of Investment Sales in Northeast Ohio Starts NOW at CRESCO!

We’re excited to announce the formal launch of the Investment Sales Division at Cushman & Wakefield | CRESCO Real Estate, led by David Leb. With over a decade of industry experience, and eight successful years at the firm, David brings a proven track record in both leasing and sales. Leb is now heading up a new division dedicated to delivering tailored solutions for buyers and sellers of commercial investment properties throughout NE Ohio.

As CRESCO Real Estate has grown, expanding both our team and our market presence, we’ve become a leading force in the leasing and sale of commercial properties across Northeast Ohio.

Our trusted relationships with local, regional, and national tenants and property owners are the result of years of consistent execution and market expertise. Several years ago, we strategically launched a dedicated retail division, which has since become a cornerstone of our platform. The creation of a formal Investment Sales Division is a natural next step. With strong foundations in industrial, office, and retail, we’re now doubling down on our efforts in income-producing real estate, including multifamily. This new division allows us to sharpen our focus and better serve clients looking to buy or sell investment properties, building on the success we’ve already had in this space.

Leading this new division is David Leb, whose track record speaks for itself. Over his tenure at CRESCO Real Estate, David has completed more than $400 million in transactions, consistently delivering results for both buyers and sellers across all major asset classes. With a deep understanding of office, retail, industrial, and multifamily properties and markets throughout Northeast Ohio, David brings both market fluency and a strategic mindset to every assignment. His passion for investment sales and his ability to navigate complex transactions make him the ideal choice to spearhead this initiative. Stepping away from leasing to focus exclusively on sales and acquisitions will allow David to further elevate the level of service he provides. His collaborative approach has already created strong cross-pollination within CRESCO’s brokerage platform, something that will only continue to grow under his leadership.

We’re also excited to introduce the newest member of our Investment Sales Division, Max Ferguson. Max joins CRESCO Real Estate from Coldwell Banker Commercial, where he focused on retail & industrial property sales throughout Cleveland and its surrounding suburbs. A Cleveland State graduate and former Division I student-athlete, Max earned his degree in finance while competing on the varsity soccer team. With a strong financial foundation and a multi-generational family background in commercial real estate ownership and development, particularly in multifamily, Max brings both passion and practical experience to our team. He’s already making an impact alongside David, and we’re confident he’ll be a valuable asset to our clients and our firm. Please join us in welcoming Max to the CRESCO team!

David and Max are actively working on a variety of current and upcoming listings, including value-add multifamily assets, Class B and Class A office properties, and fully occupied industrial investments. Whether you’re looking to buy or sell, our team is here to help you navigate your next investment opportunity with insight and confidence.
