PROFILE

Jodi Shoemake, a founding partner of Lee & Associates - Pasadena is a commercial real estate broker with a background in real estate appraisal and commercial property portfolio valuations. This unique experience sets Jodi apart from other commercial brokers in representing clients on potential development projects as she is able to view any upgrades from the perspective of an appraiser. Jodi has particular expertise in code enforcement, zoning laws and city and state ordinances as it relates to development of real estate. She is an asset to landlords in brokering deals for the leasing and sale of commercial properties: retail, mixed-use and creative office space in the Tri - Cities (Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena) and South Pasadena. She also represents regional and national retail tenants throughout Los Angeles County on lease negotiations and site selection.

CAREER SUMMARY

Ms. Shoemake began her real estate career as a licensed appraiser and transitioned to brokerage in 2006 where she was fortunate to work with one of CBRE's most successful and dynamic industrial teams and served on the company's Urban Retail team in their Downtown Los Angeles corporate office. There, she specialized in landlord and tenant representation of retail space during the early stages of Downtown LA's revitalization period. Formerly with NAI, where she was Vice President, Ms. Shoemake served as consultant in 2015-2017 to the City of Arcadia's Economic Development Department helping to build a more proactive and ongoing business engagement and position its commercial districts for maximum success and economic growth. She currently serves on a marketing committee for the Old Pasadena Management District (OPMD), the Advisory Board of the Rose Bowl Legacy Foundation and heads the West Coast Retail Group for Lee & Associates.
