“My bias would be we're headed into a recession and that’s likely to be an earnings contraction in corporate America and that is going to happen in commercial real estate as well.” - Ted Greene
Today I am interviewing Ted Greene. He is the Investor Relations Manager at Spartan Investment Group who focuses on acquiring commercial real estate assets. Ted transitioned from equities to real estate after working in the field as a Fiduciary and Investment Advisor. I spoke with Ted at the Best Ever Conference and knew right then that I wanted him to join me on the podcast. I have in the past interviewed Scott Lewis, the CEO & Founder of Spartan a well as the President CIO & Co Founder Ryan Gibson who presented at FIBI Pasadena.
Ted Greene: Started in the financial industry right out of college with Merrill & Lynch and after 24 years in the industry he ended that part of his career as a portfolio manager chief compliance officer.
