Bio
Nick Baldi serves as the Vice President of Business Development for the Greater Sacramento Economic Council. In his role, Nick is responsible for managing and directing the development of leads, proposals and site visits with prospective companies both locally and globally in order to increase business investment and job creation through Greater Sacramento. In this position, Nick builds and maintains relationships with business and community leaders, commercial real estate professionals, site selection consultants and strategic partners to ensure each client receives a seamless experience while relocating to or expanding into the region. Most recently, Nick was an Asset Manager for Buzz Oates, a Sacramento-based commercial real estate development and investment firm, where he was responsible for asset management and value growth of a commercial property portfolio totaling over 3.5 million square feet located throughout Northern California. While at Buzz Oates, Nick oversaw the development process of several new projects, from initial market study and design to building construction and lease up, and has a solid understanding of what makes a project successful for both the owner and the client. Nick has expertise working with both small and local companies as well as with large international corporations to assist them with their facility planning needs. Several notable companies Nick has worked with include Amazon, Staples, Bimbo Bakeries, Tesla Energy, Coca-Cola and DBI Beverage. Prior to that, Nick was a Structured Finance Partner with Palmer Capital, an independent real estate capital markets firm that specializes in the acquisition, disposition, financing and capitalization of commercial real estate throughout the Western United States. In this role, Nick primarily worked with lending institutions and commercial real estate investors to structure their debt capital solutions and provide transaction advisory services. Nick began his career with Fulcrum Property, a Sacramento-based commercial real estate development and investment firm whose projects include The Bridge District, Golden 1 Center and the Ice Blocks. There, he helped manage a portfolio of notable retail, office and mixed-use urban infill projects located throughout the Sacramento and San Francisco Bay areas. Nick earned his B.A. in Economics from the University of California, Santa Cruz, where he also played for the UCSC Men’s Rugby Club. Nick was the 2017 Chair of the Developing Leaders Committee for the NAIOP Sacramento Valley chapter and is an active member of the Urban Land Institute (ULI) and the Association of Commercial Real Estate (ACRE). A native of the Sacramento region and a father to three boys, Nick and his wife can often be found on their next Northern Californian adventure, and sneaking to a craft brewery in-between them.
