CBRE has bolstered its debt and structured finance team in New Jersey with the addition of broker Matthew Pizzolato as a senior vice president.
According to the firm, Pizzolato comes to the new role with more than a decade of experience in commercial real estate finance. That includes his most recent position with Accordia, where he was head of acquisitions, and nine years with the New Jersey-based teams of HFF and JLL capital markets, serving as a managing director with the debt and equity placement unit.
“Matt is a welcomed addition to our already market leading debt and structured finance team in the region,” said Will Forcello, senior managing director and New Jersey market leader for CBRE. “Working closely with our national capital markets team, we look forward to expanding this business throughout New Jersey and the region.”
CBRE noted that Pizzolato in his career has successfully capitalized more than $6.5 billion in transactions. With Fairfield-based Accordia, he led the company’s expansion into the Southeast, sourcing industrial properties across the Carolinas, securing financing and forging key institutional partnerships.
“We wish Matt all the best in his new role at CBRE,” said Jason Bogart, principal at Accordia. “Matt is a veteran in the debt and equity space and will thrive in that environment.”
Pizzolato added: “I’m excited to join CBRE’s collaborative, market-leading debt and structured finance team, and I look forward to helping drive the team’s continued growth.”
