As a full-service commercial real estate brokerage, CERRON Commercial Properties provides our clients with assistance in every aspect of buying, selling, or leasing a commercial property. Over the years, we’ve helped hundreds of clients find the right commercial or industrial properties for their businesses.
In this blog, we’re taking a look at the team that makes it all happen: our CERRON Commercial Properties Real Estate Team. Read on to learn who they are, what they do, and how they can help you find your next commercial property.
CERRON Commercial Properties began when Jack Matasosky, founder of APPRO Development, saw a need for real estate assistance among his clients. Specifically, some of his existing clients needed help with leasing and sales of commercial and industrial properties.
Today, as a full-service, integrated commercial real estate broker, CERRON helps business owners buy, sell, or lease commercial properties in Minnesota, with a focus on industrial, office, retail, and land development.
CERRON is led by Jack and Co-Owner Bruce Rydeen, with Roz Peterson (Agent) and Kris Bockelman (Agent/Business Manager) filling out the team. As a team, they assist clients with:
This last piece is one factor that sets our commercial real estate team apart from the rest. With the combined services of APPRO Development and CERRON Commercial Properties, we’re able to offer our clients assistance with every consideration in locating or relocating their business. We help with identifying site options and features, regulatory review processes and approvals, preliminary design and budgeting, final design and construction management, financial analysis, and so on.
In other words, we offer a single source for all our clients’ commercial real estate needs.
Our team works diligently to provide data to address each component so our clients can make informed decisions. As we’ve worked to build customer relationships based on trust, many clients have turned into career-long relationships — from leasing their initial space to growing and relocating to larger spaces and/or investigating ownership and building their new property.
When you hire APPRO Development and CERRON Commercial Properties, you get a team of highly qualified professionals who are well-versed in commercial real estate. Our team works together to help you reach your real estate goals.
I’ve been here since the beginning. We started CERRON as a full-service strategy to provide our clients access to real estate sales and leasing services that would complement what APPRO Development provided on the design and build side.
The most rewarding outcome for CERRON is when we have become a go-to resource for our clients in every aspect of real estate. We help them with everything from acquisitions and dispositions to investment analysis, leasing activity, and more.
Definitely Bruce Rydeen joining the team and building the business into what it is today. His tireless work ethic and integrity have built a customer base rooted in trust.
I initially served as a licensed agent for a set of multi-tenant office/warehouse properties. From there, I grew to become the managing broker involved in all aspects of real estate — sales, leasing, property management, etc.
How can I possibly so immensely enjoy something I am so poor at (GOLF!)?
I’ve been with CERRON Commercial Properties for 22 years. I was previously in the corporate world and wanted to pursue something different, so I joined the team here. My focus is on sales and leasing, and I am also a partner in CERRON..
I feel the most pride when I see the growth and success of our clients. Working with the team over the years has helped me grow my deal making skills.
Something most people don’t know about me is that I am a huge race car fan!
We sold our family drug store business in 2006, so I decided to go into our other business, commercial real estate. I joined CERRON because I had gotten to know Jack Matasosky through the Lakeville Chamber over the years. I got to know Bruce as well, and you couldn’t ask for more solid people to work with!
I have been with CERRON ever since, and my focus is on sales and leasing for retail, land, office, and industrial, primarily in the south metro area.
The accomplishments I am most proud of are my now grown children who have thriving careers and are either married or engaged.
I really enjoy the collaborative nature of the APPRO-CERRON team. The experience that everyone has here has truly helped me become more knowledgeable about all aspects of construction and the process involved to get a deal done.
Most people know that I’m an avid snowmobiler, but this winter was a dud. So instead, I filled my free time working out in an infrared sauna at 130 degrees for an hour every day.
I have been a part of the APPRO-CERRON team for 10 years. In my dual role, I am responsible for marketing, human resources, and general office management for both APPRO Development and CERRON Commercial Properties.
It has been amazing to be a part of this team’s incredible success over the years!
I am most inspired by Bruce Rydeen because he works tirelessly for our clients! Bruce will go to all ends to assist his clients — helping them find the right property, negotiate the best terms, attend city meetings in the interest of the client, etc. — all in the most kind, genuine and ethical manner.
I have grown immensely over the past 10 years by observing and working with the best people, continually learning about the industry, looking for ways to improve processes, and taking on new responsibilities.
I am training for my 6th Inline Marathon — yes, that’s 26.2 miles on rollerblades!
