To support continued market focus in secondary/tertiary markets in the Intermountain West region, Brinkman Real Estate has announced that Jane Everhart has been promoted to President and CFO of the real estate investment firm.

Jane is an accomplished senior executive with over 30 years of experience in financial management, including 20 years as a CFO for high-growth, entrepreneurial companies. She has helped companies achieve incredible success by propelling growth, profits, and culture. Throughout her career at OtterBox, Gorsuch Ltd. and Brinkman Real Estate, Jane has navigated tremendous domestic and international growth, resulting in profit increases from 35% to 300% during her watch.

Jane has been with Brinkman since 2014 and previously held the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operations Officer roles.  She will continue her duties as CFO as she steps into this expanded role as President.  In her time with the company, she has brought a progressive approach to finance and strategic growth while enhancing the company’s focus on employee satisfaction and development and overall organizational health.

In the expansive President role, Jane will lead strategic initiatives that focus on organizational optimization and structure while driving short and long-term company goals.

Jane holds a B.S. in Business with an emphasis in Accounting from the University of Colorado. She is a Certified Public Accountant, a graduate of the Women’s Vision Leadership Institute and is a strategic operating plan facilitator from the Paterson Center.

She was named a Women to Watch Leader by the Colorado Society and the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts and an Outstanding Women in Business Finalist by the Denver Business Journal.

“As we continue our expansion throughout the Intermountain West region, we need a strategic leader to scale our resources to meet these needs,” said CoFounder and CEO, Kevin Brinkman. “Jane’s contributions have been invaluable and have led to our success as a company. I’m excited to continue working closely with her in this new role.”

In the past 18 months, Brinkman has executed on over $200,000,000 in transaction volume.  This includes the acquisition of a large multi-family community outside of Salt Lake City, a workforce housing community in the suburbs of Denver, a short-term rental community in Vail, Colo., and a multi-family community in Billings, Mont. At the beginning of 2021, Brinkman sold an existing multi-family community outside the Denver MSA for a record-breaking price and will continue to recycle the proceeds of that disposition into future acquisitions, primarily focused on multi-family and hospitality assets.
