Mark Kolsrud, SIOR, CPM

A 35-year commercial real estate veteran, I started my career managing and leasing industrial properties. As a senior vice president in Colliers MN’s Investment Services division, I work to understand my clients’ needs and guide them to make the most advantageous decisions for their businesses. My goal is always to take the long view when it comes to helping clients. Over the past seven years I’ve spent at Colliers, my Investment Services team and I have focused on the client experience. Integrity is key to everything I do personally and professionally, and I am grateful to have developed relationships with nearly all commercial property owners in Minneapolis. In every negotiation, I value my relationship with my client over the individual transaction. As an active member in the commercial real estate community, I hold SIOR and CPM designations and am a member of NAIOP and MNCAR. I’m passionate about providing both career advice and general guidance to the next generation of commercial real estate professionals and have served in the NAIOP mentorship program. Two of my own kids have also joined the industry as well, making them fourth generation CRE professionals. Outside of commercial real estate, I serve as an elder at Berean Baptist Church in Burnsville and take joy in leading mission trips through my church. We work closely with an orphanage in Tecate, Mexico, as well as a church in the Dominican Republic. I live in Credit River Township with my wife and dog, and I’m blessed to often find one of my four adult children, his or her spouse and some of my grandchildren in my kitchen when I arrive home from work. As a member of the Colliers MN brokerage team, I am an entrepreneur first and completely focused on accelerating the success of my clients.
