Sharp cats who I've only worked with on the hospitality side but they get it done.
But are they cool cats though?
Work with them before, top hospitality broker in the industry
They seem to be on the come up. Poached Dan Peek, the head of HFF's NYC hotel group, after the JLL acquisition and Mike Britvan, from mission capital, to lead their loan sales group. Comp, Prestige, exit ops should be in line with any of the boutique brokerages in NY but would be below the top teams in NY (CBRE, JLL, C&W, and select other teams).
They just brokered an office condo sale for SL Green to Brookfield. If you’re interacting with those quality of players as an analyst I’d think the exit ops are pretty damn good. I think team >>> brand in a brokerage analyst role. Ex) rather work for Appel at Walker & Dunlop than for CBRE’s NJ Investment Sales team. You are what your past deal flow is at the end of the day.
I meant those specific teams at the firms in NY. i.e JLLs Hotel team is better than there’s and then the Darcy and Harmon/spies of the world as well. Don’t doubt that the comp would be in line given the small deal team
Jeffrey Dunne is a beast.
To OP though, work exclusively with their Hotels team and nothing but top notch guys. Very smart and do great deals. I would put them second after JLL Hotels team.
Used to work at HWE can say pay is line with top teams as the company runs lean but closes massive deals on small deal teams
I'm on the buyside and I work with the LA and NY teams regularly. My college roommate is also an associate there right now.
Don't have a pulse on his all-in comp but I know he get's cuts on closed deals. He's also putting in relatively heavy hours. Exit ops must be strong considering the deals they're working on as well as the groups they are regularly engaging (BX, TPG, KKR, Starwood, MSD, Northwood, Ohana, and lots of global capital out of the Middle East and Europe). My buddy is on the phone and doing tours with VP's and Principals at least once a month...
They essentially solidified their place as the #1 hotel broker post-covid. Blew Eastdil and JLL out of the water in terms of total transaction volume and prestige of the deals (highest per key trades). Their current off-market pipeline is insane (we were digging into some of their listings which were top U.S. ultra-luxury hotels/resorts). They have a commercial team that does multi/office but hospitality is their bread and butter.
