About Derek Lichtfuss
Serving as Executive Managing Director in Newmark’s Columbus, Ohio office, I’ve been able to craft my passion in real estate focusing primarily on Industrial and Office Sales & Leasing. In my four years at Newmark, I’ve built an extensive client list featuring American Municipal Power, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Chicago Title, Columbia Gas of Ohio, Everstream Technologies, First Commonwealth Bank, Scannell Properties, SK Food Group, Thayer Power & Communication and many more. Diving head-first into the commercial real estate industry, I’ve successfully completed more than 150 transactions. Additionally, I’m honored to have been nationally recognized by Newmark as a ‘Rising Star’ for the last three consecutive years and was named Columbus Board of Realtor’s Rookie of the Year in 2017. To deepen my industry knowledge, I completed my Master’s in Real Estate Finance & Development at Georgetown University in May 2020.Additionally, my understanding of investment sales and pro forma analysis helps me provide clients with strategic solutions to their real estate capital concerns. Combined with my work at Newmark, I’m able to access extensive insights into global capital markets under the banner of a fully integrated Capital Markets platform.As I continue expanding in the Columbus market, I’m looking to grow and attract more activity with national developers, owners and tenants.
