Bio

Debra Stracke Anderson is president of Sloan Street Advisors, Inc., a corporate real estate services firm based in the Washington, D.C. area. The company has served as tenant representative and site selection advisor for a clientele ranging from entrepreneurial firms to government entities and was selected in 2003 as the D.C. affiliate for ITRA Global, which serves corporate tenants and occupiers around the world.

Debra founded the company in 2000, following many years as an executive with major commercial real estate organizations. Her previous roles included Mid-Atlantic Vice President of Leasing and Marketing for COMPASS Management and Leasing (subsidiary of Equitable) and Regional Managing Director of Asset Services for Insignia/ESG (later acquired by CBRE). She led teams in winning such awards as “Top National Leasing Team” and in achieving 95% portfolio occupancy during a significant market downturn. Debra’s many previous years of experience representing building owners on the other side of the table has afforded her corporate clients a significant advantage during negotiations for office and industrial facilities.

Debra is a member of the Society of Industrial and Office Real Estate (SIOR) and earned the SIOR designation, based on business volume. She is also a Certified Commercial Investment Member of the CCIM Institute, where she earned the CCIM designation, denoting a graduate level education in commercial real estate investment. She was named one of seven professionals chosen for “Women of Influence – Standouts” in 2019 by ALM’s Real Estate Forum, the leading publication of the commercial real estate industry, after having been inducted into the publication’s “Hall of Fame” in 2018. Her transactions have been selected by the Washington Business Journal and others in their annual listings of largest office lease transactions and she was chosen a “Woman of Influence” by Virginia Lawyers Media, which annually recognizes the outstanding efforts of women in all fields.

Following several years as a member of the ITRA Global Board of Directors, Debra most recently served in a mentoring capacity as Chairman Emeritus. Her previous service included four terms as the first woman Chairman, during which she led the organization through unprecedented international expansion and received the “Exemplary Service Award”. She also received the “Ronald R. Pollina PhD Diamond Leadership Award” conveyed by ITRA Global to recognize outstanding leadership, mentorship and contributions to the organization. Most recently, she received the first Lifetime Achievement Award presented by ITRA Global. She has also served on the board for organizations that work to improve the lives of at-risk children and is a proud Air Force brat.
