Joseph D. Delogu Joins FD Partners

Teams up with former colleagues to help increase capabilities of up-and-coming, government-focused real estate firm

ARLINGTON, Va., Jan. 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Highly regarded federal government real estate expert Joseph D. Delogu has accepted a position at FD Partners as its newest principal, announces David E. Alperstein, a principal at the firm, today.

Along with development and investment leadership, Delogu will be the FD Partners principal in charge of providing third-party services to entities that own buildings leased to the federal government and those seeking to enhance their business relationship with governmental agencies. FD Partners, an Arlington, Va.-based company founded in 2007, is a real estate services and development firm that focuses exclusively on the federal government real estate sector.

"The addition of Joe Delogu to our leadership team will further establish FD Partners as a leading player in the federal government real estate sector and will enable the firm to further enhance and expand the services and capabilities we provide to property owners in this specialized marketplace," Alperstein said. "Joe brings to FD Partners an impressive skill set. We believe there is no one with more experience, more expertise and more respect in the industry from an advisory standpoint."

Delogu has more than 20 years of federal government real estate experience in the public and private sectors. His specialized capabilities are recognized within the highest levels of the federal government and among property owners and investors. 

Delogu's new position reunites him with Alperstein and Richard J. Mann, another principal at FD Partners. Delogu, who joined Spaulding & Slye in 1996 and was later named a partner in 2000, led the firm's federal services team that included Alperstein and Mann, both of whom he hired. Spaulding & Slye was acquired by Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) in 2006 and Delogu was named an international director (JLL's highest title) and served as the managing director of its government investor services team until 2008. Alperstein and Mann departed JLL in April 2009 to join Claiborne J. Williams as principals at FD Partners.
