NewOak Capital taps Eyzenberg to head commercial real estate operations

NewOak Capital named David Eyzenberg managing director and head of its commercial real estate unit. The asset management advisory firm said Eyzenberg joined NewOak in January from Prodigious Capital, a company he founded in 2005. Prior to that, he led the New York office of Madison Capital Group. “Commercial real estate debt and equity have been a key focus of our firm and the markets,” said Ron D’Vari, CEO and co-founder of NewOak Capital. “David has the rare optimal breadth and depth in commercial real estate investment banking, financing, recapitalization, underwriting and investment management.” While president of Prodigious Capital, Eyzenberg consummated more than $350 million in financing and advisory assignments encompassing single-asset, portfolio, and entity level financings, as well as joint venture and structured financing, debt, equity and hybrid products and commercial mortgage-backed securities, according to NewOak.
