The challenge for LaSalle Investment Management is finding deals to sink the capital it has raised, Martin says. The $5.4-million revenue increase was achieved largely by renegotiating advisory fees, according to Jones Lang LaSalle's first-quarter earnings report.

Nonetheless, LaSalle Investment Management posted a $6.9-million loss for the first quarter, down from a $4.1-million loss for the same period in 2002. The division saw a $16.4-million increase in compensation and benefits.
