Boston, MA Cushman & Wakefield has hired Paul Krupinsky as a senior director in the valuation & advisory practice. Krupinsky comes to Cushman & Wakefield from BJ’s Wholesale Club, where he worked as the manager of property tax. In his new role, Krupinsky will be responsible for developing and expanding the property tax practice across all service lines in the Northeast. 

As part of the Boston office, Krupinsky joins an existing team of fourteen, including ten valuation professionals (five MAIs), that cover the New England market.  In 2014, Cushman & Wakefield’s New England Valuation & Advisory Group completed nearly 1,000 assignments with a combined market value in excess of $28 billion ranging in size from a small 6-unit apartment building to a major 1.5 million square foot urban mixed-use development. 

“Paul’s diverse background in the property tax field will be a valuable asset to the Cushman & Wakefield Boston team,” said Rob Skinner, managing director of the Valuation & Advisory Practice.

“His years of experience on the ownership side will afford him a unique opportunity to assist clients with their property tax needs.”

Krupinsky also worked in public accounting with KMPG and Ernst & Young. Krupinsky earned his BA in economics from the University of Maryland and is a Certified Member of the Institute (CMI) from the Institute for Professionals in Taxation (IPT).

“I’m looking forward to working in the ever-changing and fast-paced commercial real estate industry,” said Krupinksy. “Becoming a part of this dynamic team is a great way to continue my professional growth and development. I look forward to working with an array of clients to assist them in navigating the property tax landscape.”
