Bio
Kevin Kush joined PMAT shortly after its inception in order to scale the platform and has been a Partner since 2010 and President of PMAT since 2015. In that time, Mr. Kush has been involved in over $800,000,000 of acquisitions and dispositions on over 7,000,000 square feet of SOAR (Select Open Air Retail) anchored by grocery, off-price, necessity, discount, and fitness operators that continue to thrive in the current retail landscape.
Mr. Kush developed PMAT's primary investment theme that "macro market inefficiency creates micro market opportunity for nimble private capital that can make asset level decisions rather than portfolio or geography level decisions" as well as their individual theses that guide out investments. As the President of the PMAT Companies, his responsibilities include developing investment themes and corporate direction, acquisitions, leasing, dispositions, asset management, construction management, capital markets, and investor relations.
A life-long entrepreneur, Mr. Kush previously completed numerous real estate projects in his home town of Nashville, TN and also consulted a New Orleans based non-profit in the creation of business development centers in underserved communities. Kevin's previous experience outside of real estate includes management of a portfolio of S&P 500 stocks and equity research analysis.
Mr. Kush is a member of the Next Generation Leadership Network Board Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC), the retail industry's most prominent trade organization. In 2022, Kevin was chosen at GlobeSt 50 under 40 in Commercial Real Estate. Mr. Kush also serves as a mentor to aspiring commercial real estate professionals both through ICSC and through A.B. Freeman School of Business at Tulane University where he also guest lectures. Mr. Kush has served in various capacities on the Board of AO Chapter of Sigma Chi Fraternity including as president and as treasurer.
Mr. Kush attended Vanderbilt University and Tulane University where he graduated Summa Cum Laude as the Valedictorian of the A.B Freeman School of Business and also recipient of the Wall Street Journal Award for excellence in finance.
