D. Chad Bottorff
D. Chad Bottorff is the Director of Construction and Asset Management for Eakin Partners. He is involved in the assessment of acquisition/development opportunities, design, financing structures and management of building and tenant interior construction. As a partner in the firm, Chad is continuously evaluating opportunities for Eakin Partners' investor partners.
A native of Nashville, Chad is a graduate of The University of the South, with a B.A. in Political Science. From 1997 to 2001, he worked with the Tennessee Titans in Sales and Operations, coordinating all aspects of team logistics, including busing, trucking, airlines, hotels, and the day-to-day operations of training camp.
Chad joined Eakin Partners in 2001, and since that time has been instrumental in the acquisition, development and management of assets affiliated with the partnerships of Eakin Partners.
In December 2007, Eakin Partners completed the construction and delivery of the 340,000 SF Class A building, SunTrust Plaza. In addition to the oversight of base building and tenant interior construction, Chad worked with Eakin Partners' management team to insure the functional operations of SunTrust Plaza's systems as well as a smooth transition for the building tenants.
Chad's contributions have also been critical in the development of Eakin Partners' Asset Management team, for which he provides oversight of the company's operations. His broad capabilities not only enable Eakin Partners to provide excellent customer service to the tenants, but ultimately contribute to their retention, and to increased cash flow for buildings managed and leased by Eakin Partners.
Chad works closely with John Eakin and Tom Harwell to analyze future projects, and to structure partnerships and financing. He is currently part of the EP Real Estate Fund II, a $35 million equity fund which actively seeks real estate investments.
Chad is married and has three children.
