ExchangeRight Hires Kara Howard as Director of National Accounts
ExchangeRight, a provider of real estate Delaware statutory trusts (DSTs) and REIT investments, has hired Kara Howard as director of national accounts to expand its strategic relations team.
Howard will lead the company’s efforts to strengthen and increase strategic partnerships with broker-dealers, RIAs, custodial platforms and institutional accounts.
Geoff Flahardy, who was promoted to president, strategic relations and recently participated in an interview with Connect Money at the ADISA conference in Las Vegas last month, said, “We are keen for Kara to help us serve more advisors and representatives, and their investors who need stability with ExchangeRight’s conservative investment strategies and historically recession-resilient offerings.”
Howard joins ExchangeRight with more than 15 years of experience in the alternative investment industry, focusing on national accounts and business development.
ExchangeRight and its affiliates’ platform has over $5.7 billion in assets under management across over 1,200 properties and 23 million square feet throughout 47 states.
The Pasadena, CA-based company manages net-leased portfolios of assets backed primarily by investment-grade corporations that operate in the necessity-based retail and healthcare industries, as well as value-add portfolios of inline and outparcel retail properties shadow-anchored by grocery tenants.
