Recognition reflects the firm’s commitment to ethical leadership, award-winning workplace culture, conflict-free client advocacy, and community service.

PHOENIX, Oct. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Keyser, a national tenant representation and commercial real estate advisory firm, has been named one of Arizona’s Most Admired Companies of 2026 by AZ Big Media.

Selected through a competitive evaluation of Arizona businesses, the Most Admired Companies program recognizes organizations demonstrating excellence in leadership, workplace culture, innovation, customer experience, and social responsibility.

For Keyser, the honor reflects a philosophy that extends beyond its client relationships. From its conflict-free representation model and 15 Core Operating Principles to its award-winning workplace and ongoing community involvement, the firm has built its reputation around the belief that business success and service to others can go hand in hand.

“Building an admired company was never about winning awards. It was about proving that you can build an extraordinary business without compromising your values,” said Jonathan Keyser, Founder and Managing Partner of Keyser. “We set out to transform a traditionally ruthless and cut-throat industry through selfless service, and this recognition belongs to every member of our team who chooses to live that mission every day.”

Integrity at the Center of Client Representation

Keyser’s approach to commercial real estate begins with a commitment to eliminating conflicts of interest. Unlike traditional brokerage firms that may represent both landlords and tenants, Keyser exclusively advocates for businesses and organizations, allowing its advisors to provide guidance without competing landlord interests.

This tenant-only model reflects the firm’s belief that client advocacy should be uncompromising. From evaluating market opportunities to negotiating complex lease terms and developing long-term real estate strategies, Keyser’s advisors work exclusively to advance their clients’ business objectives.

Building an Award-Winning Workplace Culture

Keyser’s commitment to service begins within its own organization. The firm’s 15 Core Operating Principles guide how team members collaborate, make decisions, serve clients, and support one another.

That commitment has contributed to a growing record of workplace recognition, including Inc. Best Workplaces 2026, Phoenix Business Journal Best Places to Work 2025, and Arizona Top Workplaces 2026.

“Strong brand reputations are earned through consistency,” said Olivia Barajas, Partner and Marketing Director at Keyser. “The standards we hold ourselves to internally are reflected in how we serve our clients, support our people, and contribute to our community. When integrity, excellence, and selfless service become consistent experiences rather than corporate promises, a strong reputation becomes the natural result.”

Putting Selfless Service Into Action

Keyser’s first Core Operating Principle, selfless service, extends beyond the workplace and into the communities where its team members live and work.

Throughout Arizona, Keyser employees participate in volunteer initiatives and support organizations including Feed My Starving Children, Granite Reef Senior Center, Brokers for Kids, United Food Bank, and Scottsdale’s Healthy Packs program. The firm also supports highway cleanup efforts throughout Greater Phoenix.

These efforts reflect a culture that encourages employees to contribute their time and talents beyond their professional responsibilities, reinforcing the connection between Keyser’s internal values and its broader community impact.

Innovation That Strengthens the Client Experience

Keyser continues to evolve its advisory approach by integrating artificial intelligence and technology into its operations and client services.

Applications such as rent and renewal modeling, scenario planning, workforce and drive-time intelligence, and site capability analysis help advisors evaluate complex real estate decisions and provide business leaders with greater visibility into their options.

“Technology should create better decisions, not simply faster processes,” said Faith Rocha, CFO, COO, and Partner at Keyser. “By using AI and automation to reduce routine work, our people can focus on higher-value service. And by incorporating these capabilities into client advisory, we can help business leaders evaluate real estate decisions with greater clarity and foresight.”
