LOS ANGELES—Todd Tydlaska has joined HFF as senior managing director in the firm's Los Angeles office. In this role, Tydlaska will focus on Los Angeles institutional investment sales and help the firm grow its West Coast Bbusiness in other primary West Coast markets.

“HFF offered the opportunity to expand on an already successful platform on the West Coast with best in class professionals,” Tydlaska tells GlobeSt.com. “The firm's founding principles of client-centric focus, value-add compensation model and team orientation resonated with my own guiding principles.” He joins the firm from CBRE, where he served as an SVP. In his lofty career, he has been involved in the sales of more than $15 billion in commercial real estate, including the $1.15 billion disposition of the Amazon headquarters campus, the $480 million disposition of the Russell Investment Center and the $219 million disposition of the Campus at Playa Vista.

Tydlaska plans to leverage his seasoned experience in his new position at HFF. “The goal is simple: continue to deliver best in class capital markets executions for our customers and grow HFF's market share in one of the top gateway markets in the world,” Tydlaska says. “Los Angeles is a primary market for global capital and I look forward to complementing the existing professionals in the debt, equity and investment sales spaces.”

Tydlaska is the 27th producer to join the HFF team since early 2013. The Los Angeles market has been a major growth area for the firm, which is actively expanding its West Coast business. “This is part of HFF's overall strategy of growing the West Coast and building out our teams with best in class individuals,” Kevin MacKenzie, a senior managing director and co-head of HFF's Los Angeles and Orange County offices, tells GlobeSt.com. “Given the amount of volume we are currently experiencing in our Southern California offices, this was an excellent opportunity to support and grow those efforts by adding someone with the depth of market knowledge and experience that Todd has.”
