TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Cushman
& Wakefield (NYSE: CWK) is pleased to have hired the
market-leading multifamily brokerage team of Nicholas Meoli and Michael
Donaldson.
As Executive Directors with Cushman & Wakefield’s Florida Multifamily
Investment Sales Team, the pair will be based in the firm’s Tampa office
and will work primarily with private equity and non-institutional
clients in the Tampa Bay, Central Florida and North Florida markets.
Meoli and Donaldson will work closely with the firm’s institutional
multifamily experts in these markets; Executive Directors Luis
Elorza and Brad
Capas in Tampa, and Executive Directors Jay
Ballard and Ken
Delvillar in Orlando.
Meoli and Donaldson together bring more than 20 years of combined
experience in commercial real estate and have worked as a team since
2012, while at Marcus & Millichap. They have closed over 27,000
multifamily units for a total of more than $1.4 billion in total sales
volume.
“Nick and Mike have established themselves as an incredibly strong force
in the Florida multifamily market, as well as one of the top multifamily
teams in the entire Southeast,” said Larry
Richey, Florida Managing Principal for Cushman & Wakefield. “We are
thrilled to have them join us as we continue to grow our Florida team.”

added, “Nick’s and Mike’s expertise in representing private equity
clients in Florida’s central and northern markets will help round out
our statewide team, while enhancing our status as Florida’s leader in
multifamily investment sales.”
Meoli’s and Donaldson’s expertise in multifamily investment sales
includes market rate, affordable housing, fractured condominium and
distressed communities. Additionally, the team has been one of the
market leaders for portfolio sales in Central and North Florida, having
closed 12 portfolios totaling almost 6,000 units in the last two years.
They have successfully represented private, institutional and lender
clients in primary, secondary and tertiary markets throughout Florida,
achieving some of the highest accolades in the industry.
At their previous firm and since their inception, the team ranked
consistently in the top 5 percent, firmwide, based on their production.
Further, Real Estate Forum Magazine recognized them as one of the Top 10
Multifamily Teams in the United States for 2017.
“We are tremendously excited to join a firm with such an unparalleled
global platform and comprehensive full-service approach as Cushman &

of the most accomplished brokers in the industry, and taking part in
Cushman & Wakefield’s collaborative, team-based approach to best serve
all of our clients in all capacities,” said Meoli.
