Boston, MA Newmark Knight Frank (NKF) has appointed Patrick Glynn to oversee and direct property management services in the New England region, including business development, operations, integrating service lines and strategic staff recruitment to maximize the value of real estate assets on behalf of clients. Based in NKF’s Boston office, Glynn will be partnering with NKF’s market leaders to expand the firm’s suite of investor services throughout Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine.
