Leadership

Douglas Armbruster

Senior Vice President and Regional Officer

Cincinnati

DAY-TO-DAY

Doug leads a team covering a vast territory including Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and New Jersey, overseeing business development, capital deployment, operations, and large-scale development. His primary focus includes land acquisition, entitlement, and the development of modern logistics facilities for both inventory and build-to-suit requirements.

BACKGROUND

Doug first became interested in real estate while working at his dad’s rental properties during high school. He went on to earn a BBA in Real Estate and Finance from the University of Cincinnati, where he later served as an adjunct professor. A 31-year veteran of commercial real estate, Doug has overseen more than 40 million square feet of industrial property development and leasing, totaling over $3 billion in market value. His specialties include development, leasing, brokerage, financing, acquisitions, and dispositions.

Doug’s UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE

“One of the greatest rewards of my career is watching commercial developments come to life as vibrant employment centers, making positive impacts on communities. I’m always reminded that relationships matter more than transactions. To that end, my wife has been the single most influential factor in my life, along with our five children (three of whom work in the real estate industry).”

OUTSIDE OF THE OFFICE

For Doug, real estate is in his DNA—it’s his passion. When he’s not in the office or on a development site, Doug enjoys biking, golfing, boating, and mentoring young people interested in the industry.
