VETERAN REAL ESTATE EXECUTIVE
KURTZ NAMED NEW DENHOLTZ CEO
Denholtz Properties has tapped
Katie Kurtz as its new CEO, as
longtime top executives Steven
Denholtz and Stephen Cassidy move
into new roles with the Red Bank-
based fi rm.
The company said Kurtz, who has
more than 20 years of institutional
real estate, capital markets and
investment experience, will oversee
the strategic refi nement of its
operational platform to capitalize
on emerging commercial real
estate investment opportunities
nationwide. She is the former
co-chief investment offi cer
and chief fi nancial offi cer for
Silverstein Properties, where her
responsibilities spanned the fi rm’s
portfolio of more than $10 billion in
commercial, residential and retail
property as well as the development
platform and lending business.
Steven Denholtz, the fi rm’s
longtime CEO, assumes the role
of chairman and will leverage his
vast experience to shape its vision
while collaborating closely with the
executive team to identify growth
opportunities. Stephen Cassidy,
its president since 2002, is now
managing partner and focuses on
guiding the fi rm’s capital markets
and fundraising operations as
it expands and diversifi es its $2
billion portfolio of assets under
management.
“It has been my honor to lead
Denholtz Properties through
our evolution over the past four
decades,” Denholtz said. “As we
look to the future, we are confi dent
that Katie’s extensive experience
and leadership will guide us in
building upon our legacy while
seizing new opportunities for
sustained growth.”
Cassidy added: “Over the years,
Steven and I have built a company
that maximizes investor returns by
assembling an entrepreneurial team
adept at navigating ever-changing
property and capital markets. As
we enter what we believe is the
next commercial real estate growth
cycle, Katie’s institutional expertise
will be crucial in advancing our
business model and accelerating our
growth trajectory.”
Prior to Silverstein Properties, Kurtz
was an executive vice president at
AR Global and held leadership roles
with The Carlyle Group and New
Mountain Finance Corp. She now
joins a company that has pivoted
several times during its 72 years in
business, most recently ramping
up its multifamily development
and acquisition pipeline while
continuing to focus on industrial
property.
Denholtz has a regional
headquarters in Orlando, Florida,
long a key market for the fi rm, with
a vertically integrated platform
consisting of more than 100 full-
time employees.
“Steven and Stephen’s decades
of leadership and vision have
established a sophisticated model
for responsible commercial real
estate investment capable of
achieving results in even the most
complex investments,” Kurtz said.
“I am excited to join the Denholtz
Properties team and use my
background to help grow the fi rm’s
platform and achieve new levels of
success together.”
