J.P. Morgan Asset Management announced that Chad Tredway, who was previously at the firm between 2008 and 2021, will rejoin the firm as head of real estate in the Americas, according to a press release.  

Tredway will succeed Mike Kelly, the group’s current head, who will retire. J.P. Morgan will also assume management of Trio Investment group, an institutional property investment firm with $250 million in assets, that Tredway founded after his departure from JPAM.  

“From his previous time at J.P. Morgan and his presence in the industry, we know Chad to be a visionary leader who brings a powerful combination of real estate expertise and leadership experience,” said Anton Pil, head of global alternatives for J.P. Morgan Asset Management, in a press release. “We’re excited to have him back at J.P. Morgan and are excited that Chad will extend Real Estate Americas’ industry leadership.” 

Among his previous roles at J.P. Morgan, Tredway was the head of real estate banking within the bank’s commercial banking unit. He also held roles within commercial term lending, where he helped build the largest multifamily lending portfolio in the US. He was previously an investment banker at William Blair and later UBS. Tredway earned a bachelor’s degree in finance and accounting from Loyola University Chicago.  

“Chad is a strong cultural fit for our employees and clients and ready to take the reins of Real Estate Americas, one of the industry’s largest and most well-respected real estate asset management franchises, as markets approach an inflection point, a time of great opportunity,” said George Gatch, J.P. Morgan Asset Management’s CEO, in a statement.
