Independent full-service brokerage Ripco Real has hired the team of Steven Winters and Michael Horne as executive vice presidents for the firm’s New Jersey market.
Both will focus on Central and Northern New Jersey and join Ripco from CBRE, where they worked for nine years after CBRE purchased Fameco Real Estate, a brokerage that specialized in retail real estate and the shopping center industry, in 2013.
Winters has over three decades of experience in landlord and tenant representation, investment and land sales, development layout and design expertise and advisory services to retail and mixed-use property owners, developers and tenants.
With over 35 years in the retail real estate business, Horne has extensive experience in site selection, market analysis, site development and dispositions.
“At RIPCO, we are actively recruiting top talent to join our New Jersey team and both Steven and Mike were at the top of our list,” said Mark Kaplan, president of Ripco. “They bring expansive market knowledge and decades-long relationships, but more importantly, they’re fantastic people who fit right in with our existing team. We are confident that they will quickly get rolling in our Elmwood Park office and expand our presence throughout northern and central New Jersey.”
