In 1987, Rand Sperry and Mark Van Ness joined forces to create a commercial investment real estate firm with one key mission: to create unprecedented value for commercial advisors and their clients. Based on this mission, Sperry Van Ness has achieved top company brand recognition and is the fastest growing commercial real estate brokerage firm in the nation, growing to over 800 advisors in more than 140 markets across the country.

Rand Sperry is the Co-Founder of Sperry Van Ness and the Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of SVN Equities and SVN property management.

Mr. Sperry is a well-known real estate and business leader in Southern California for over thirty years. Upon graduation from California State University Long Beach, joined a leading Southland apartment brokerage firm where he began his management and training of commercial brokers. He rose to the most senior position in the firm, general sales manager, within four years at the age of twenty-six. At that time, he had one hundred sixty agents and brokers reporting to him.

Mr. Sperry believed deeply in the product he was selling. Over the years, he has owned and operated more than 100 commercial properties of all types – more than any other income source, these contributed to his financial independence in his mid-twenties.

In 1998, Mr. Sperry took on another challenge – the challenge of building two new important profit centers in the Sperry Van Ness family of companies: SVN Equities and SVN Management, Inc. Seeing this opportunity to capture profits from “value added” investment properties, Mr. Sperry along with his SVN Equities partners Burton Young and Jack Carroll, acquired of 100 properties, which exceed one billion in value.

To manage the firm’s assets as well as to provide an additional service to Sperry Van Ness’ investors, SVN Management was organized and now has over 9 million square feet under management and 6 million owned.

Mr. Sperry combines his unique array of talents and experience in the industry to help others achieve financial independence. From being a self-made millionaire in his mid twenties and his rapid rise through the ranks of a large company, to his co-founding and management of Sperry Van Ness, Mr. Sperry has inspired young men and women entering the commercial real estate profession in many ways. He is frequently invited as a seminar or motivational speaker at industry and business gatherings throughout the Southwest and enjoys sharing the excitement and opportunity of real estate brokerage and ownership.

Mr. Sperry is active in both church and community. He is or has been a member of numerous civic and religious boards and committees in Orange County, California, where he resides with his wife, Rosemary and their six children.
