SURMOUNT, one of the nation’s leading commercial real estate advisory and investment platforms, today announced a significant expansion of its national footprint with the addition of the Issenberg Britti Group (“IBG”), a premier South Florida net lease investment sales team led by Ronald Issenberg, Gabriel Britti, and Kevin O’Hanlon. Concurrently, SURMOUNT announces the opening of its first South Florida office at One Downtown Miami, located at 1 SE 3rd Avenue in the heart of Miami’s central business district.
Over the course of their careers, Ronald Issenberg and Gabriel Britti have completed more than 1,650 transactions representing over $8.5 billion in transaction volume, establishing themselves among the most respected advisors in the net lease industry. During their 20-year tenure at Marcus & Millichap, the team built a market-leading practice serving private investors, family offices, developers, institutions, and owner-operators throughout South Florida and across the United States. Their expertise spans retail investment sales, sale-leasebacks, development advisory, 1031 exchange transactions, portfolio dispositions, and complex investment strategies nationwide.
“South Florida has become one of the most important commercial real estate markets in the world, driven by significant business migration, wealth creation, development and investment,” said Glen Kunofsky, Chief Executive Officer of SURMOUNT. “Our clients are increasingly investing in Florida, exchanging into Florida assets, relocating businesses and family offices to the region, and seeking opportunities across virtually every asset class. Establishing a permanent presence in Miami, with the partnership of Ronnie, Gabe, and team, represents a significant milestone for SURMOUNT and reinforces our commitment to serving clients where capital and opportunity continue to converge.”
The Miami office marks SURMOUNT’s first dedicated location in South Florida and will serve as a strategic hub for the firm’s brokerage, lease advisory, capital markets, development, and principal investment activities throughout the region. The office opening reflects SURMOUNT’s broader strategy of expanding into key growth markets while continuing to attract industry-leading talent nationwide.
“The opening of our Miami office reflects SURMOUNT’s broader commitment to building a truly national platform in the markets that matter most to our clients,” said Nicoletti DePaul, Chief Operating Officer of SURMOUNT. “The addition of Ronnie, Gabe, Kevin, and the entire team is exactly the type of strategic investment that defines SURMOUNT’s growth strategy. They have built one of the most accomplished net lease practices in South Florida, and attracting market-leading professionals further validates the strength of our vision and significantly enhances our ability to serve clients throughout Florida and across the country.”
For Issenberg and Britti, the decision to join SURMOUNT was driven by the opportunity to leverage a fully integrated net lease platform while continuing to provide the personalized service and market expertise that have defined their careers.
“SURMOUNT has assembled something unique in today’s commercial real estate landscape,” said Ronald Issenberg. “The firm’s entrepreneurial culture, collaborative environment, and commitment to putting clients first immediately stood out to us. The ability to offer clients not only best-in-class brokerage services, but also access to capital markets, development, principal investments, lease advisory, and structured investment solutions creates a compelling value proposition that will help us continue growing our business and delivering results.”
Gabriel Britti added, “Our clients increasingly expect broader capabilities, deeper resources, and access to opportunities beyond traditional brokerage services. SURMOUNT’s platform provides exactly that while maintaining the culture, agility, and client focus that have been critical to our success. We are excited to join an organization that shares our values and our vision for the future of the net lease industry. We believe the combination of our team’s market expertise and SURMOUNT’s national platform will create significant opportunities for our clients throughout South Florida and beyond.”
With approximately 150 professionals nationwide and more than $45 billion in transaction volume completed throughout its history, SURMOUNT continues to expand its presence in key markets while maintaining its commitment to delivering institutional-quality advice and execution to clients both domestically and internationally.
