About

Jim Williams is an experienced professional who began his real estate career in 1971 and earned his real estate brokers license in 1978. Jim owned and operated a number of real estate companies throughout his career including the original RE/MAX franchise in Windsor, Ontario. He is currently president/owner of RE/MAX Capital Inc., which specializes in the leasing and sale of industrial, commercial and investment (ICI) real estate.

Jim made the decision to specialize in ICI real estate and has done so since 1984. Realizing that this career direction would require extensive specialized knowledge, Jim completed a graduate-level program, which culminated in his receiving the CCIM designation in 1999. The CCIM designation is held by an elite few. Currently there are 13,000 members worldwide and account for over $200 billion in transactions annually. Of those able to obtain the designation, 67% hold the title of owner, partner, principal, president, vice president or broker.* CCIM members real estate practitioners require a high level of experience in sales and leasing of commercial, industrial and investment real estate.

In 2003, Jim earned dual SIOR designations in the areas of both industrial and office real estate by the Society of Industrial and Office REALTORS©. SIOR designees are required to have completed creditable experience in the field of industrial or office real estate and must demonstrate a high-level of knowledge, professional ability, and ethical standards of practice. Worldwide, only 2,800 real estate professionals hold the SIOR designation. Mr. Williams is the only Broker in Windsor-Essex County to hold both CCIM and SIOR designations.
