Brian Schwalbach

Brian brings more than twenty five years of commercial real estate experience to the table, with a knack for acquisition and disposition analysis, and a reputation for making even the trickiest contract or lease negotiation go smoothly. Over the years, he’s managed extensive multi-state real estate portfolios and navigated some of the most complex transactions —all with a sharp eye for detail and a steady focus on helping clients reach their goals. His broad understanding of the industry allows him to step into the perspective of his clients and partners, helping them make critical decisions with confidence.

In 2014, Brian co-founded the Seattle office, which has since grown to provide services to more than 40 regional and national clients. He helps shape the firm’s big-picture strategy while also guiding the day-to-day operations. Beyond that, Brian has extensive experience launching, financing, and operating partnerships, and is active in the venture capital space.

Beyond his professional endeavors, Brian is a founding member, board member, and supporter of several organizations dedicated to youth education and career development — a cause he cares deeply about.

When he’s not working, Brian’s usually outside chasing adventure. Whether it’s skiing or hiking the Pacific NW mountains, boating on its waterways, golfing, or out bird hunting, he’s happiest when he’s in the outdoors. Above all, he enjoys time with his wife and two kids, who keep life both busy and fun.

Brian holds a BS in Business Management/MIS from Babson College in Boston, MA, and also completed graduate work at Portland State University to further his studies in real estate.
