O'Grady has more than 40 years of commercial real estate finance and related industry experience. In his combined experience, he has been responsible for the development of more than 10 million square feet of commercial real estate, 23 master-planned housing communities, six million square feet of commercial leasing and more than $20 billion in structured finance closings.

"The Florida markets, particularly South Florida, enjoy the attributes of desirable weather, pro-growth and process-friendly governmental agencies," O'Grady says. "Because of the attraction of the region to foreign countries for primary and secondary housing, there is a more insulated environment to economic shifts that affect other parts of the U.S."
