Shopoff Promotes National Accounts Director

Christy Hutchison

Shopoff Realty Investments, a national manager of opportunistic real estate investments and a sponsor of private placement offerings, has promoted Christy Hutchison to senior vice president, national accounts.

“Christy has been an essential member of the Shopoff distribution team for more than seven years, expanding and nurturing our relationships with the broker-dealer community, registered investment advisers, and family offices,” said William Shopoff, president and chief executive officer. “This promotion reflects her hard work, and the immense value she brings to Shopoff. We look forward to supporting her further growth in the coming years, and its continued positive impact on our business, as well as her colleagues.”

Hutchison joined Shopoff in 2017 as a national accounts manager and was later promoted to director of national accounts.

In her new role, the company says Hutchison will play a pivotal role in the company’s growth and expansion by driving business development initiatives and managing strategic partnerships with RIAs, broker-dealers, and family offices. The company also explained in a statement that the promotion is a testament to Hutchison’s numerous contributions to Shopoff and her extensive industry experience, which includes her recent election to the 2024 board of directors of ADISA, a trade association serving the alternative investments industry.

“I am truly honored to be recognized and acknowledged by the executive team and am grateful for their continued confidence in my leadership abilities at the firm,” explained Hutchison. “I not only feel excited for this next step in my career, but privileged to be doing so with a firm that has such a tremendous reputation. My focus, aside from business development efforts, will be on developing our strategic partnerships and collaboration opportunities within the industry, ultimately benefiting the broader sector as a whole.”

Prior to Shopoff, Hutchison served as national accounts manager at the New York-based alternative investments firm, First Capital Real Estate Advisors, where she was responsible for building out the independent broker-dealer and RIA channels. With an extensive history in the space, Hutchison began her career as an operations analyst for energy hedge fund AAA Capital Management in Houston, Texas. She then began taking on more sales-focused roles upon her transition to Altegris Investments, quickly getting promoted as an internal wholesaler covering the Pacific Northwest, which allowed her to start developing strategic relationships within the industry, before moving on to First Capital.

Shopoff Realty Investments is an Irvine, Calif.-based real estate firm with a 32-year history of generating appreciation through development projects, the repositioning of commercial income-producing properties, and the entitlement of land assets.
