Stream Realty Partners Hires Ben Landes to Lead Florida Market Intelligence and Technology Platform

MIAMI — April 23, 2026 — Stream Realty Partners, a national commercial real estate firm headquartered in Dallas, has hired Ben Landes as Director of Market Intelligence & Technology for the State of Florida, the firm announced. Based in Miami, Landes will lead Stream's research platform across the state, with a focus on data strategy, market intelligence, and technology integration to support business development and client service.

Role and Responsibilities

Landes will expand Stream Florida's research and technology platform across South Florida, Tampa, and Orlando. His work will span office and industrial sectors, delivering market intelligence to help corporate clients identify optimal locations, supporting landlords in attracting and retaining tenants, and equipping brokerage teams with data needed to win competitive pursuits.

Landes will produce market forecasts, portfolio analysis, and custom research solutions tailored to each client's strategic objectives. His oversight will also include GIS and mapping solutions, data analytics, portfolio strategy, and AI-driven applications. He will collaborate with Greg Katz, Executive Managing Director & Partner; John Gilbert, Executive Managing Director; Gary Godsey, Executive Managing Director; and Jason Warren, to align research priorities with the firm's broader growth strategy.

Landes Brings Nearly a Decade of CRE Data and Technology Experience

Landes brings nearly a decade of experience at the intersection of commercial real estate, data, and technology. He joins Stream Realty Partners from JLL, where he spent seven years, most recently serving as Director of Technology Advisory. In that role, he worked directly with corporate and institutional clients to translate complex business challenges into technology solutions, designing and deploying AI-powered tools supporting market intelligence, deal management, and portfolio strategy, while driving adoption of new technologies across brokerage and research teams.

He began his career in research, developing data-driven analytics and market intelligence tools that supported upwards of 20 million square feet of annual lease and sale transactions across Florida. He also previously held research positions at Cushman & Wakefield and 4Acre CRE in Orlando.

"Ben brings a unique combination of research expertise and technology fluency that directly addresses where this market is headed," said Greg Katz, Executive Managing Director & Partner at Stream. "Data and AI are reshaping how clients make real estate decisions, and as we continue to expand our Florida presence, having a centralized, intelligence-driven research platform will be critical to helping our clients stay ahead of that shift, and our teams stay competitive in the field."

Stream Realty Partners Expands Florida Platform

The hire reflects Stream Realty Partners' ongoing expansion in Florida, where the firm is investing in centralized research infrastructure. According to the firm, the approach is designed to be client- and broker-driven rather than top-down — a distinction Landes highlighted in his own comments on joining.

"Stream's Florida platform is growing rapidly, and there is a huge opportunity to build a market intelligence platform that gives clients a meaningful competitive advantage," said Landes. "Unlike the top-down model common at larger firms, Stream's structure lets us start where it matters most — with what brokers and clients actually need. The result is research and technology that drives real decisions. I'm super excited to help shape that platform and support the continued growth of the business."
