NEWARK--CoreNet Global NJ, (Corporate Real Estate Executives Network of New Jersey) the New Jersey State Chapter of CoreNet Global, has scheduled a CoRE Curriculum educational workshop for Tuesday, February 23, 2010, from 8:30 A.M. to 10:00 A.M. The session will be hosted by Johnson & Johnson and will take place at Johnson Hall, Johnson & Johnson, 501 George Street JH 5102A, New Brunswick.
The title of the February program is “Strategies for Eliminating Leased Properties from the Portfolio” and will be presented by Joe Hamilton, Managing Director, Liberty-Greenfield.
Hamilton will address the ‘Boom and Bust’ cycle of commercial real estate combined with the accelerated growth and retrenchment cycles for individual enterprises. This phenomenon regularly results in companies being faced with considerable excess real estate to be disposed of into often already oversupplied markets. He will discuss the challenges, successes, and new disposition strategies that address the conflicting goals of corporate tenants and their landlords.
Key points to be covered include:
• Economic, accounting, tax, and practical concerns bearing on lease disposals.
• The differences between corporate user concerns and real estate investors concerns.
• Strategies to creatively structure transactions that address these different concerns.
• Different methodologies of engaging landlords and third parties in negotiations.
• What should be done in the acquisition process of new real estate to maximize future disposition flexibility
Joe Hamilton is Managing Director of Liberty-Greenfield’s Palo-Alto, California facility. Liberty-Greenfield is a Denver-based corporate real estate advisory firm. Hamilton has run a management consulting practice focused on supporting CEOs' key strategic and operational needs, has served as president and COO of Citigate Cunningham, and was the executive director of the international law firm, Brobeck.
