Seattle-based real estate investment manager Timberlane Partners expanded its leadership team with three key executive hires. The new hires coincide with the firm’s launch of Timberlane Acquisition Fund, a product targeting institutional assets and designed to capitalize on the current disruption in commercial real estate markets in key Western states. 

“We have grown the Timberlane platform steadily over the last 12 years by focusing on being a trusted partner in our markets and by building deep relationships with our investors,” said founding partner Dave Enslow. “With the current real estate market cooling, we’re adding best-in-class strength to place us in the best possible position as the market recovers.” 

The new executive hires include Jon Hallgrimson, director of acquisitions and former leader of CBRE’s Seattle multifamily investment sales office; partner Jake Leibsohn, formerly managing director with Northmarq in Seattle; and Tad Johnson, director of acquisitions and formerly of Security Properties.
