“Over more than three decades, we have developed, owned, operated, managed and invested in more than 25 million square feet of real estate and have had the opportunity to work with many brokers and business owners. Brian not only brings an extensive client list and substantial commercial real estate industry experience to assist in our national leasing efforts, but he also understands the benefits of BLT’s offerings in creating innovative connections between residential and office spaces that underscore our commitment to building communities that endure and fuel growth,” said Carl Kuehner, III, chairman of BLT.
Over the course of his brokerage career, Carcaterra has been recognized by NAIOP, BOMA and other Industry groups for spearheading multiple “Deal of the Year” and “Brokerage Team of the Year” award-wining initiatives both locally and nationally.

“I’m excited to be joining BLT as the next step in my journey in real estate,” said Carcaterra. “I very much look forward to being part of the company that has provided so much for the communities it develops and enhances and I am hopeful I will become an integral member of the team in short order. Collaboration, creativity, hard work, teamwork and having fun is what I plan to bring to the platform day one. I would like to thank all my former teammates, partners, colleagues and family members that have supported me for the last twenty years.”
