A little about Lenny
When Lenny enters a room his strong, yet relaxed, presence makes people take notice. It is the mark of a great leader. He’s a big-picture guy who uses creativity, logic and instinct in his leadership roles, be it in business, community service or family relations. He is disciplined, organized and goal oriented. He can also tear down the house with his sense of humor and readily joins in on the ongoing M&A office pranks.

Known to be an inspired and skilled negotiator, Lenny has been recognized numerous times by the industry for his participation in some of the largest and most intricate commercial real estate transactions in the Greater Boston area.
