Clearview Realty Finance, a leading national commercial real estate debt and equity advisory group, announced the formation of CRF Defeasance. The newly formed specialty services division of CRF is led by Managing Director Scott Burnett, a 20-year veteran of the capital markets advisory industry who has managed the time-sensitive complexities of more than 6,000 defeasance transactions totaling $75 billion in total asset valuation.
Silas Burke, managing partner of CRF, said, “The formation of CRF Defeasance is a synergistic addition to our advisory platform. We are excited to welcome Scott Burnett to our group; his experience and expertise will benefit our existing client base and extend our reach into new areas of service and performance.”
Burnett added, “Throughout my career, I have known and closed defeasance transactions with Clearview Realty Finance principals and their clients. Given the existing relationship, it seemed like a natural fit to come to CRF to expand their team and services.”
