Michael Schack has joined Dayton Street Partners as an executive vice president to oversee the firm’s asset management and day-to-day operations.
Schack’s experience spans office, industrial, retail, residential and hotels in both suburban and central business district locations in the Central and Eastern United States. During his 30-year career, he has amassed $4.0 billion of sale/acquisition transactions and more than $2.0 billion in lease transactions.
He was most recently a senior director and head of American Realty Advisors’ Chicago office. While there he managed a team of six asset managers and a portfolio of more than 40 properties in the firm’s eastern Region.

In addition, Schack headed up dispositions for the firm while simultaneously building a team to handle the growing volume of transactions.
