Justin Elliott

Background

Justin Elliott is a CRE Advisor at Stirling, one of the leading commercial real estate firms in the Gulf South. Based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, he works as a generalist across multiple transaction types and asset classes, bringing a disciplined, data-informed approach to every engagement.

Justin handles lease listings, sale listings, tenant representation, buyer representation, and broker opinions of value across retail, office, and land. With more than 30 active deals at any given time, he operates at a pace and volume that demand both precision and adaptability.

From the Hardwood to the Deal Table

Before entering commercial real estate, Justin served as a student manager for LSU Men's Basketball. In that role, he was responsible for advanced statistical analysis and live coding during games, translating real-time data into actionable insights for the coaching staff.

The experience taught him how to perform under pressure, synthesize complex information quickly, and communicate findings to decision-makers in high-stakes environments. Those same skills now inform how he evaluates markets, structures deals, and advises clients.

Approach

Justin's generalist model is intentional. By working across asset classes and service lines, he maintains a broad view of the Baton Rouge market, identifying opportunities that specialists might overlook. Whether representing a landlord seeking tenants for a retail center or guiding a buyer through a land acquisition, he applies the same rigor to each deal.

His approach is defined by:

• Thorough market research and competitive analysis before every listing or engagement
• Clear, direct communication with clients at every stage of the transaction
• A commitment to understanding each client's business objectives, not just their real estate needs
• Analytical thinking rooted in his background in data and statistics

Designations and Affiliations

Justin is currently a CCIM candidate, pursuing one of the most respected designations in commercial real estate. The CCIM (Certified Commercial Investment Member) program provides advanced training in financial analysis, market analysis, user decision analysis, and investment analysis.
