Testimonials

“Under Phil’s leadership, the contract was completed a year and a half ahead of schedule at 20% under budgeted cost.”

“I served as FDIC’s Oversight Managing Director for a $3 billion asset management contract, when Phil was the Managing Director of J.E. Robert Companies of New England. Phil was a creative problem solver, and a tremendously skilled manager of a 200 person team responsible for maximizing the return on a large pool of distressed commercial real estate loans, consumer credits, distressed real estate and other assets. Under Phil’s leadership, the contract was completed a year and a half ahead of schedule at 20% under budgeted cost. Under his leadership, the company found other opportunities after the FDIC contract was concluded. But most of all, Phil is a leader of unparalleled character and ethics. I would endorse him without reservation for similar responsibilities.”

“I’d strongly endorse Phil to any firm looking to add capability and bench strength to their teams”

“I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to work directly with Phil from 2007 – 2013 at Värde Partners, Inc, a $14 billion investment manager.  His expertise in residential and commercial real estate was instrumental in helping the firm underwrite, acquire and manage over $2 billion of performing and non-performing loans during and following the Great Financial Crisis.  I’d strongly endorse Phil to any firm looking to add capability and bench strength to their teams managing illiquid assets.”
