Currently serving as an Advisor to a handful of real estate groups, Adam helps real estate businesses solve difficult challenges and find ways to grow. Although he has a particular focus on capital structure and sourcing funding, he has a broad expertise in all aspects of real estate acquisition, finance, development, and management.
