 PHOENIX, AZ –– Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced it will expand its western U.S. presence by opening an office in Phoenix, Arizona with a focus on debt and equity placement as well as investment sales serving Arizona and the greater southwest region.  The opening of this office will represent HFF’s 23rd location in the U.S.

Day-to-day operations of the Phoenix office, which is expected to open in late summer 2016, will be led by senior managing director Jeremy Womack, who will relocate from HFF’s Austin office to launch the new Phoenix operation.

 Scott Galloway, an executive managing director and member of HFF’s executive committee, along with Kevin MacKenzie, a senior managing director, co-head of the West Coast region, and a member of HFF’s executive committee, will oversee the office opening and expansion.

CJ Osbrink, from HFF’s Orange County office, who specializes in investment sales, will also relocate to the new Phoenix location.  HFF will seek to add additional transaction professionals to the Phoenix office who specialize in the firm’s capital markets platform service offerings as well as property specialties, where appropriate.
