CBRE is pleased to announce that Brian Fiumara has earned the title of Vice Chairman, which is the highest title for producers within the company. This promotion marks just the third time that a CBRE sales professional in the greater Philadelphia region and New Jersey has achieved this title.
Fiumara has more than 20 years of experience in commercial real estate, representing institutional and private equity clients in the acquisition as well as the disposition of income-producing properties and development opportunities.
Fiumara, who partners with Michael Hines (also Vice Chairman), Brad Ruppel and Lauren Dawicki, completed 42 industrial transactions in 2018, totaling 28 million sq. ft. and representing $2.19 billion in total value.

In 2019, Fiumara was involved in some of the largest transactions in the region.

The CBRE team represented the seller, Hampshire Real Estate Companies, during the multi-faceted transaction.
