HOUSTON—John Burke, senior vice president/managing director of NorthMarq's Houston office, was selected as the recipient of NorthMarq Capital's top employee award for 2016. The O'Brien/Klebenoff award was named for two well-respected employees, Mike O'Brien and Marty Klebanoff.
The honor has been awarded annually for 30 years. Eduardo Padilla, CEO of NorthMarq Capital, presented the award to Burke at the company's internal production conference held in Park City, UT.
“This award recognizes an employee who performs at an exceptional level, with direct impact on the company's financial performance and enterprise value, and has upheld the company's standards consistently over his career,” said Padilla. “John is the heart and soul of the Houston office, always willing to give his time and expertise to clients and coworkers.”
Burke has been with the company and its predecessor since 1985 and is managing director of the Houston office, which has 20 employees. During his real estate finance and investment banking career, Burke has been responsible for originating and closing more than 300 debt and equity transactions totaling in excess of $4 billion. He is an active member of the MBA, ICSC, and NAIOP, and is a licensed real estate sales agent in Texas.
“John has had a long, distinguished career with our company, which started when NorthMarq acquired Stockton, Luedemann and French in Houston in 1985,” Padilla tells GlobeSt.com. “Since then, he has become known as a great mentor to others in the office and personally committed to helping his clients. This award is our company's highest honor and much deserved by John.”
Burke began his career at Houston National Bank as a bank officer and construction lender, and moved into mortgage banking in 1982 with the Ben McGuire Company. In 1985, he, along with the late Ken Stockton, Bill Luedemann and Kerry French, started Stockton, Luedemann and French, which was acquired by NorthMarq Capital. Burke is a graduate of The University of Texas at Austin with a major in finance.
