Jun. 13, 2012
IRVINE, Calif. – June 13, 2012 – Brett Whitehead, president of Brandywine Homes, will participate in a panel discussion on “Nimble Money – Dollars for Smaller Deals” during the PCBC Show’s Capital Forum at 11:15 a.m., Wednesday, June 27, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.
Whitehead and fellow panelists Loren Borstein, vice president, residential development Borstein Enterprises; Mark Frazier, president, Silveroak Development Corporation; Michael Ghielmetti, president, Signature Development Group, Inc.; and Matthew Schwab, co-founder and managing director, Karlin Real Estate, will explore the topic of why the small deals are the toughest to finance.
The panelists will share how they have successfully navigated the maze, some of the proven capital providers they’ve partnered with, and how they structured deals—even on challenging, unconventional sites—to create a win-win for all parties.
At Brandywine, Whitehead oversees many areas including land acquisition, entitlements, forward planning, and finance. During his tenure at Brandywine, he has been an integral part of the acquisition and planning of over 30 developments and almost 900 residential units.
As a result of Whitehead’s efforts building and maintaining strong banking relationships, Brandywine Homes has amassed an impressive network of construction lenders and equity partners that have expressed interest in working with Brandywine even as other sources for these funds have become scarce.
