Tyler Hasemann, 34
Director at Silverstein Capital Partners
Tyler Hasemann initially pursued a traditional finance career path when he studied accounting while attending the University at Albany. Then a phone call from Cantor Commercial Real Estate (CCRE) set his course toward commercial real estate.
Hasemann received an offer to work at CCRE focusing on commercial mortgage-backed securities loan originations and was drawn by the chance to work with Michael May and Lawrence Britvan, the latter a fellow Albany alum. May, who is now president of Silverstein Capital Partners, served as a strong mentor for Hasemann in his commercial real estate journey.
“They made me a quick offer to join,” Hasemann said. “The rest is history, and it’s worked out wonderfully.”
After four years at CCRE, Hasemann joined Eastdil Secured and worked on its capital markets team for two years in San Francisco, focusing on debt placement and advisory services.
Hasemann then became one of May’s first hires in 2019, shortly after he was tasked with leading Silverstein Capital in September 2018.
Hasemann helps source deals that typically range from $50 million to $200 million across all asset classes in the top 20 U.S. markets. He has closed more than $3.5 billion of loans and note purchases during his four and half years at the platform in addition to helping it raise two new funds.
“This platform has really excelled and is coming into its own,” Hasemann said.
When not strategizing about ways to scale Silverstein Capital to new heights, Hasemann enjoys surfing in Rockaway Beach, Queens. The Long Island native said riding the waves provides a great escape from the many twists and turns that pop up in today’s debt markets.
“It’s unpredictable, just like the market, but I found a lot of enjoyment out of it,” Hasemann said. “It’s therapeutic and a great workout.”
