Senior Vice President, Brokerage
Kennedy Wilson Properties, Ltd.
Specializing in retail brokerage with a focus on urban redevelopment, Christine Deschaine serves as an advisor for landlords, sellers, tenants and buyers, working extensively with some of Los Angeles’ most prominent investors and developers. Deschaine is currently the exclusive agent for more than 200,000 square feet of commercial space and has completed more than 410,000 square feet in transactions valued at over $227 million since joining Kennedy Wilson in 2013. Deschaine recently brokered a new lease at 2729 Wilshire Blvd. in Santa Monica, a mixed-use, build-to-suit location under planned redevelopment. Representing the landlord, she attracted the interest of a well-known global bank looking to relocate from its office building location to the 2,587-square-foot ground floor retail location with parking and began what would become 18 months of negotiations. Deschaine closed the deal and the new tenant will now enter into a prime submarket for their customer base.
