Divaris Real Estate Inc. has relocated and expanded its corporate headquarters in Virginia Beach to accommodate the firm’s growing staff.
The company said it has added 17 new employees in the last six months at its corporate headquarters, prompting a move to a 17,500-square-foot space on the ninth floor at 4525 Main Street in the Town Center of Virginia Beach, the latest office tower to be completed in the city’s Central Business District. It’s across the street from Divaris’ previous location of 32 years on the seventh floor of One Columbus Center, the Town Center’s first office building.
Divaris Real Estate and Divaris Property Management Corp. lease and manage both buildings, along with the other buildings at the Town Center.
According to the company, the growth is the result of several new business assignments including:
· An increase in its portfolio of leased and managed properties by about 10 percent to 29 million square feet;·
· An increase in the amount of leasing, management and acquisition assignments it handles for Armada Hoffler Properties, a Virginia-based real estate investment trust also located at the Town Center;
· A new assignment to represent the U.S. national expansion for Oak Furnitureland, a British furniture retailer;
· The representation of the Commonwealth of Virginia in its commercial space requirements throughout the state.
