Tanner Milne, MBA, SIOR, CCIM, has been involved in commercial real estate development, brokerage, and property management since 2003. Over the course of his career, he has worked on transactions of all sizes, from helping thousands of small business owners to handling lease up for large REITs. This wide-ranging experience gives clients a clear advantage by providing insight into the full lifecycle of buying, selling, leasing, developing, and managing commercial real estate.

In 2008, Tanner founded Menlo Group Commercial Real Estate with the vision of finding a better way—offering exceptional service and leveraging best-in-class technology to deliver superior results. He began by establishing himself as a market leader in the East Valley’s dental, medical, and professional office condo sectors, helping many of the Valley’s top doctors, dentists, and entrepreneurs find ideal spaces and negotiate favorable deals.

Over time, Tanner’s focus has expanded to building repeatable systems and scalable processes that have allowed Menlo to recruit top talent and become a respected, values-driven firm throughout the Arizona marketplace.

Tanner earned a bachelor’s degree from Brigham Young University and an MBA from Arizona State University. He holds the Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM) and Society of Industrial and Office REALTORS (SIOR) designations—credentials reserved for a select group of commercial real estate professionals recognized for their expertise and performance.

A passionate learner, Tanner reads more than 50 books per year. Ask him his current favorites, as they are always changing. He is married with five wonderful children, and enjoys good food, traveling to Brazil, and spending time at the beach.

In recent years, Tanner has also found deep fulfillment through his work with the Academy for Creating Enterprise, teaching individuals in developing countries how to start income-generating activities that lift families out of poverty and help shape brighter futures.
