A real estate entrepreneur and U.S. Navy veteran, Thomas enjoys visionary work with diverse teams to solve challenging problems. Thomas began his real estate career as a broker with Sperry Van Ness, winning their National Rookie of the Year Award in 2010. He then moved to Hendricks & Partners (now Berkadia), the premier multifamily brokerage firm in the US. In 2012, Thomas founded Fenix Private Capital Group LLC to focus on improving underperforming real estate assets throughout Arizona. At Fenix, Thomas participated in purchasing and repositioning value-added multifamily, office, retail, and industrial properties across Arizona. This was accomplished by buying properties via short-sale, auction, REO, or conventional sales using personal capital, private lenders, banks, and raising equity. In addition to purchasing real property, Thomas began buying distressed debt in 2011, buying nonperforming loans (NPLs) from national, regional, and community banks and private parties. Recognizing a need for leadership in sustainable development, Thomas positioned Fenix PCG to be a pioneer development company of highly sustainable mixed-use real estate in urban cores. Partnering with Habitat Metro, Thomas has since developed the 70-unit mixed-use property Eco PHX in downtown Phoenix and Eco Mesa, the 102-unit mixed-use property in downtown Mesa. Fenix and Habitat Metro continue to develop their eco-branded and highly sustainable multifamily projects in the Phoenix area. In 2019, Thomas noted that real estate prices were eclipsing pricing records set before the Great Recession. Sensing an opportunity to help borrowers, lenders, and investors if (and when) the market corrected, he co-founded DO Income Fund, a distressed debt fund that purchases underperforming and nonperforming loans originated by private lenders across the country. Since then, Thomas and his team have transacted on hundreds of loans from Washington to Florida across a broad spectrum of property types.
