JPMorgan appoints Chad Tredway to lead Americas real estate sector

NEW YORK – JPMorgan has announced the appointment of Chad Tredway as head of its asset-management real estate sector for the Americas, according to a report by Bloomberg. This leadership change follows the retirement of Mike Kelly. George Gatch, CEO of J.P. Morgan Asset Management, confirmed Tredway’s return after his departure in 2021 to form Trio Investment Group, a company specializing in property sales and leasebacks. JPMorgan will now take over the management of Trio’s assets.

Tredway’s reappointment comes at a time when J.P. Morgan Asset Management is overseeing a substantial portfolio in real estate, valued at $74 billion. This includes significant investments such as the acquisition of Santa Monica’s Pen Factory for $165.5 million and a partnership with American Homes 4 Rent (NYSE:). The firm’s strategic moves in the real estate market have been yielding strong results, particularly in retail, where some malls are reporting monthly sales surpassing $1,300 per square foot.

Amidst these developments, Anton Pil, part of J.P. Morgan Asset Management’s leadership team, shared insights on the industry’s outlook. While he anticipates a potential dip in U.S. commercial property values, Pil is optimistic about the office space sector, citing a decline in remote work trends that could drive gains. However, he voiced concerns regarding the multifamily housing market’s saturation but remains bullish on the prospects for single-family rentals and the retail sector.
