Loved learning more about “Capital Markets” from this trio at Newmark during the BOMA Greater Phoenix info session! Barry Gabel, Charles Osbrink, and Chris Marchildon each provided such unique insight from current and past lease and purchase & sale transactions they have completed throughout their careers 🤝 Biggest takeaway: Have a personal connection with your tenants, property managers, and vendors! Aka, know their names and what they are doing outside of work… We are in the people business, not the brick & mortar business! 👩💻👷♂️>🧱🏗️

💬 ❔ GETTING TO KNOW… This month, we headed directly to St. Louis in the US to spotlight this month’s ‘Getting To Know You’ feature, Luke McGowan, a Director in our ICS Fund Services Team. Luke joined JTC, along with other team members from Segue Partners, when their firm was acquired in 2021. He is a key player in providing a range of sophisticated fund solutions that meet the needs of private equity, venture capital and family offices - and his leadership has been instrumental in the success of the team there. In this Professionally Speaking, Luke talks more about his journey to JTC and what the future holds: 💬 What three words best describe your role? Innovate, Relationships, Processes ❔ What was your very first job? 💬A Subway sandwich maker! ❔ If you could switch jobs with someone, who would it be? 💬American professional golfer - Scottie Scheffler ❔ When have you got it wrong in your career? 💬Prior to my time at Segue/JTC I gave preparing tax returns a go - that was definitely the wrong path of accounting for me! ❔ What would your retirement years see you doing? 💬Traveling with my wife and playing golf daily ❔ What does JTC’s ‘shared ownership’ culture mean to you? 💬Shared Ownership culture means so many things to me. Not only does it encourage motivation and engagement, it also gives access to financial benefits that help better the lives of JTC employees and their families. Most of all, I feel the JTC Shared Ownership culture helps recruit and retain top talent. Inspired by Luke’s career journey here at JTC?

Three Years of Resilience: One-9 Holdings Today marks three years since I started One-9 Holdings—a journey that has been as challenging as it has been rewarding. Building this company from the ground up hasn’t been easy. There have been countless ups and downs—late nights, tough decisions, and moments where the road ahead felt uncertain. Yet, through it all, my commitment to this vision has only grown stronger. One-9 Holdings was built on a foundation of perseverance, trust, and the belief that real estate is more than an investment—it’s a way to create lasting value for individuals and communities alike. These past three years have tested that belief, but they’ve also proven its strength. To our investors, partners, and supporters: thank you for standing with me during the highs and lows. Your trust and encouragement have been the driving force behind every milestone we’ve achieved. As we celebrate this anniversary, I’m not just looking back—I’m looking forward. I am committed to doubling the strength of this company in the next year: Expanding opportunities for our investors Strengthening our partnerships Pushing boundaries to achieve new levels of success This is just the beginning. The challenges may not get easier, but I’ve learned that it’s in facing them head-on that real growth happens. Here’s to the next chapter of One-9 Holdings—stronger, more resilient, and ready to make an even greater impact. If you believe in this vision, I’d love for you to join us on the journey ahead. #One9Holdings #Resilience #3YearAnniversary #CommitmentToGrowth #CommercialRealEstate

🚀 I am thrilled to announce the launch of Bluegrass Alpha Partners, a private equity firm based in Louisville, Kentucky. At Bluegrass Alpha, we are dedicated to building long-term partnerships and preserving the legacies of lower middle-market companies in the Transportation, Manufacturing, and Commercial Services industries. 🌟 Our focus is on making control investments in businesses with revenue between $5M to $50M and EBITDA north of $1M—particularly those that are founder owned or multi-generational without a clear succession plan. 💼 With our experience as private equity investors and former executives, my partner and I bring a unique perspective and a track record of significant value creation. We deeply understand the challenges and opportunities that come with running and growing businesses, while also recognizing the resource constraints faced by businesses in our target regions and industries. 🤝 At Bluegrass Alpha, we firmly believe that successful partnerships are built on trust and authenticity.  To honor this belief, we offer our expertise and resources to business owners through consulting engagements, allowing us to demonstrate the tangible value we can bring before a deal is even closed. This balanced approach fosters trust and ensures both parties are aligned in values and vision. Many investors liken the relationship between the seller and investor to a marriage but often skip the “dating” period before committing long-term. We’ve chosen to take a different path, allowing for a “dating” phase to develop genuine relationships with our future business partners. This deliberate approach sets the stage for pursuing business acquisition opportunities through a more transparent, partnership-driven process. In addition to our ‘consult-to-close’ approach we will also be pursuing investment opportunities through broker and investment banker led processes. 🎯 We are excited to begin this journey, focusing on Kentucky and surrounding states in the #Midwest and #Southeast. Our goal is to make meaningful investments that ensure the longevity and success of businesses, benefiting owners, employees, and communities alike. 👥 We invite you to connect with us, whether you’re a business owner seeking to secure your legacy, an investor looking for opportunities with a differentiated approach, a business broker, or a fellow business leader interested in learning more about our initiatives. 🔗 For more information, visit www.bluegrassalpha.com 📧 Contact me directly at Christian@bluegrassalpha.com 🔔 Follow our LinkedIn page to stay updated on our journey and milestones.
