As the nation’s largest real estate executive talent solutions firm, our team at 20/20 Foresight completes hundreds of executive searches per year and stays in ongoing dialogue with thousands of candidates across the industry — which means we see actual offers, counteroffers and accepted compensation packages as they happen; not filtered through a survey months later.
It’s our mission to share what we’re learning, and in the spirit of collaboration, we’re here to help if we can.
The following is a sampling of various executive searches that were completed last quarter with pertinent compensation information:
Chief Financial Officer [Garden-style multifamily owner-operator with 10K units]
Northeast
Placed candidate: 22 years of experience
$400K base + $250K bonus
Straightforward executive cash package while leaving room for additional incentive compensation as the company develops a broader long-term program.
President, Multifamily Operations [Affordable multifamily operator with 9K units]
Sun Belt
Placed candidate: 26 years of experience
$400K base + $150K bonus
Compensation combines substantial fixed cash with layered profits interests across multiple funds — giving the President meaningful participation in the long-term economics of the platform.
VP, Accounting & Finance [Warehouse solutions with <500,000 SF portfolio]
West Coast
Placed candidate: 15 years of experience
$200K base + 20% bonus
This is notable for also including a 3% carried interest in a joint venture — creating significant upside beyond base salary and bonus.
VP, Asset Management [Multifamily + student housing operator with 3K units]
Sun Belt
Placed candidate: 10 years of experience
$190K base + 20% bonus
Bonus tied to portfolio performance rather than a fixed dollar figure — common at this level where asset management comp is meant to track directly with returns.
SVP, Capital Formation [Commercial real estate investment firm with $5B AUM]
West Coast
Placed candidate: 10 years of experience
$225K base + incentive-based bonus tied to firm profitability
Offer emphasizes flexible, discretionary incentive compensation rather than a defined target — with upside tied broadly to company profitability, individual contribution and property-level capital events.
