NEW YORK CITY—Stan Johnson Co. is working to build its corporate finance service line and the Tulsa, OK-based firm has hired Kevin Stahl—who will be based here—to head up the effort.
The product will be the first suite of several complementary services intended to allow SJC to better serve its existing clients and expand client relationships. The firm views the new service line as a natural extension of Stan Johnson's net lease focused business, with offerings to include real estate financing solutions for sale leaseback and build-to-suit projects.
Stahl joins SJC as executive managing director from Perella Weinberg Partners, where he was a partner and head of the real estate advisory business. He was responsible for originating and executing transactions focused on strategic advisory, mergers and acquisitions, private capital and capital markets advisory across a broad range of public and private real estate companies, developers and investors.
“Kevin possesses a strong and unique real estate finance, capital markets and advisory background, and is well positioned to lead this charge for SJC,” says Stan Johnson, the company's CEO and founder. “His experience and broad relationship base combined with our focus on corporate finance solutions will enhance SJC's ability to deliver value-add services and solutions to our clients.”
Prior to joining Perella Weinberg, Stahl was managing director and co-head of US real estate investment banking at RBC Capital Markets. During his 22-year real estate career, he also was with GE Real Estate, Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley. During this time he advised real estate companies including developers, REITs and brokerage firms on a wide array of strategic and financing transactions.
“Kevin brings great business development experience and strategic thought leadership to this new role,” says Stan Johnson Co. COO Jeff Cox. “His primary responsibilities will be driving growth in our corporate finance business through recruiting strong industry professionals, working with SJC broker teams to develop and expand client relationships through enhanced services and pursuing strategies that will help SJC gain market share.”
