Cushman & Wakefield has announced today that Carl Wunderlich, a commercial real estate veteran with more than 15 years of experience, has rejoined the organization as Director for the Westchester and Connecticut markets. In his new role, Wunderlich will be responsible for tenant and landlord representation, with a focus on retail and suburban markets in Westchester and Fairfield County, Connecticut.
Most recently, Wunderlich worked with Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc. where he served as a Senior Leasing Representative. There, he was responsible for leasing a portfolio of mixed-use properties totaling more than 1.3 million square feet. During his three and half years at the organization, Wunderlich was able to stabilize properties in declining suburban markets by achieving above market rents on new deals and securing long term renewals. Prior to this role, he also served as an Associate Director for Retail Services at Cushman & Wakefield.
“Carl’s addition to our team will help fortify our position as market leaders in Connecticut and Westchester’s growing retail market,” said Jim Fagan, managing principal and market leader of Cushman & Wakefield’s Connecticut branch. “His regional expertise paired with his experience in the retail sector will be of great value to our expanding roster of diverse talent. We are certain that with his background, Carl will be a strong asset here.”
“My return to Cushman & Wakefield will give me a wonderful opportunity to rekindle the professional relationships I’ve made here in the past, while having the opportunity to work in a new market,” said Wunderlich. “The transition back was seamless. Not only am I comfortable with the platform, but I now have the ability to explore and work in the market I live in. This will allow me to leverage my retail relationships and effectively help grow Cushman & Wakefield’s retail brand.”
Throughout his career, Wunderlich has managed and helped arrange numerous mixed-use projects with clients including Whole Foods, Starbucks, Sprint, Boost Mobile, AutoZone, Aldi, and, Wells Fargo and CAVA Grill – two of the highest square footage projects in Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc.’s portfolio. As a tenant, landlord representative, he’s worked for major metro New York landlords including Verizon, SJP Properties, Jamestown, LeFrak, and TF Cornerstone.
