Title Forthcoming
Jeanne Pinado — Executive Vice President Boston, Investment Sales, Equity Placement, Colliers, Boston, MA
Jeanne Pinado joined Colliers as an Executive Vice President in January of 2021. She serves as a strategic brokerage advisor within capital markets, focusing predominantly on multifamily investment sales.
Pinado is an entrepreneurial and well-connected leader within the Boston real estate community, having spent the previous 21 years as CEO of Boston’s Madison Park Development Corporation, a community-based, mixed-use real estate developer. During her tenure at Madison Park, she grew the organization’s affordable housing portfolio by more than 300% through new construction and acquisitions, resulting in assets of $200 million across 26 properties and a $30 million endowment.
With deep, working knowledge of real estate development, finance, asset management, public-private partnerships, and implementation of strategic business plans, Pinado’s positive impact on Boston is known citywide and was undoubtedly a large contributor to her appointment by then-Mayor Walsh to Boston’s Zoning Board of Appeal in 2020 and the recent appointment in 2022 by Governor Baker to chair the board of MassHousing.
Other boards include Board President, NeighborWorks Capital Corporation; Executive Board/Clerk, A Better City; Leadership Council, NAIOP-MA; Trustee, Foley Hoag and Charlesbank Homes Foundations. She has received many awards including Massachusetts Housing Investment Corporation Chuck Grisby award, 2021, Citizen’s Housing & Planning Association Outstanding Impact Award, 2020; Jewish Alliance for Law and Social Action Distinguished Leadership Award, 2018; Boston Architectural College, Honorary Doctor of Design Leadership, 2015; Barr Foundation Fellowship, 2007; and City of Boston Leadership Award, 2003.
Pinado received an MBA in Finance from Columbia University and a BA in Economics from University of Virginia. She resides with her family in Boston, MA.
