Benjamin Bucci
By Joshua Burd
Lincoln Property Co. has named Benjamin Bucci as its new market leader in New Jersey.
Bucci, who was also elevated to executive vice president, will take the helm of the Parsippany-based team after relocating from Lincoln’s San Diego office, according to a news release. He’ll now look to grow a platform in the Garden State that includes acquisitions, leasing, tenant representation, development and property management services.
“The opportunity to step into the New Jersey market leader role and expand the portfolio through acquisition and development across a variety of sectors is compelling,” Bucci said. “Lincoln is uniquely positioned to capitalize on market dislocations and volatility due to our strong relationships with a variety of debt and equity partners operating across sectors and risk spectrum.
“My wife and I are also very excited to be closer to our family and friends since we both grew up in central New Jersey,” he added.
Bucci joined Lincoln in 2020 and, in his role with the San Diego office, led acquisitions strategies and oversaw leasing and asset management, the news release said. He has been involved in roughly $3 billion in acquisition and disposition volume during his career, while overseeing more than 3 million square feet of developments and pre-commit transactions encompassing life sciences, office, research and development and industrial properties.
Additionally, the Hofstra University graduate has served as an adviser and transaction leader for more than $2 billion in investment sales and capital markets transactions. Before joining Lincoln, he was an acquisitions associate at Westcore Properties, where he was responsible for sourcing, underwriting and executing new investment opportunities.
Bucci now succeeds Michael Taylor, who will lead property management and leasing for Lincoln across New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
