Keith Goldfaden - Preparing Hallmark 
for the Next 20 Years of Success
(L-R) NAI Hallmark Partners COO Dave Auchter, Jacksonville Armada FC Owner Mark Frisch and NAI Hallmark Partners Senior Vice President Keith Goldfaden at a recent NASL board meeting dinner.

Those looking for sure signs of an improving economy need not look any further than Hallmark Partners Senior Vice President Keith Goldfaden. The year he put together in 2013 and the quick start this year are good reasons for optimism. 

 

"Keith's tenure with Hallmark is marked with success in equal parts development, finance and brokerage," says Hallmark Co-founder and Principal Jeff Conn. "His expertise in so many core real estate areas all but assures his success." 

 

Over the past year Keith oversaw the refinancing or disposition of several prominent Hallmark owned properties to take advantage of the historically low interest rates and cap rates. "We really wanted to take advantage of the current rate environment and capitalize on strategic asset sales and long-term fixed rate financing on key portfolio assets," says Keith. 

 

"Keith is essentially our 'Chief Investment Officer' and a brilliant real estate professional equally capable with strategic and hammer-and-nail duties," says Hallmark COO Dave Auchter. "Over the past year he essentially cleaned up our balance sheet and prepared Hallmark for the next 20 years of success." 

 

Keith was instrumental in getting 220 Riverside, downtown Jacksonville's signature residential/retail project, underway by helping shape the development and joint venture financing structure. He also spearheaded the acquisition or disposition of more than 1 million square feet of retail, office and industrial property for third party clients. He has represented a broad range of owners, ranging from multi-billion dollar special servicers and institutional investors to local family offices and high net worth individuals. 

 

Entering 2014 Keith is serving as point person for the site selection of a new soccer specific stadium for the NASL Armada FC soccer franchise. He's also playing an instrumental role in the development of Hallmark's $50mm+ Beacon Riverside luxury condominium. Keith will be launching the sales efforts for several office/industrial properties by the end of the first quarter.
