ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 8, 2025--
Domain Capital Group, LLC, a comprehensive private investment management services firm, and its subsidiary, Domain Timber Advisors, LLC, today announced a series of leadership changes effective January 1, 2025 designed to position the company for continued growth and success. These updates align with Domain’s long-term strategic goals and reflect evolving opportunities within the timberland and natural capital sectors.
Domain Timber Advisors Managing Director Joe Sanderson will retire after a successful career in the timber industry. Sanderson will remain in an advisory role through 2025 to ensure a seamless transition and provide support to the team and its investors.
“Joe has been instrumental in building Domain Timber Advisors into the growing and respected business it is today,” said Patrick Leardo, CEO of Domain Capital Group. “We are incredibly grateful for his leadership and dedication and wish him all the best in his well-deserved retirement.”
Moving Forward with New Leadership
As part of this transition, John Capriotti and Don Warden will join Domain Timber Advisors as managing directors and co-heads. With extensive experience in the timberland sector, Capriotti and Warden have built, managed and sold four significant timberland portfolios totaling more than 3 million acres since 2004. Their experience will further enhance the company's leadership in sustainable forestry investments and asset management.
- John Capriotti brings more than 20 years of experience across the real estate, timber and finance sectors, specializing in real estate transactions, underwriting and fund development and management. He has led acquisition efforts for three start-up timberland companies, successfully growing their collective asset value to more than $3 billion.
- Don Warden has held leadership roles for more than 25 years with public and private investment companies spanning the real estate, timber and energy industries. He has extensive experience in asset and portfolio management, real estate transactions, natural capital development and business development. Throughout his career, Warden has overseen more than $2 billion in real estate, timberland and natural capital asset class transactions.
“I am glad to be joining the talented team at Domain Timber Advisors and excited to work alongside such a strong group of professionals,” said Capriotti. “Domain has built tremendous momentum in the timberland and natural capital sectors, and Don and I look forward to contributing to the team’s continued success and growth.”
“I am thrilled to help grow Domain Timber Advisors’ offerings, particularly by expanding the sustainability-focused aspects of the business,” said Warden. “The opportunity to advance Domain’s initiatives in forest carbon, mitigation banking and biodiversity projects is incredibly exciting, and John and I look forward to helping drive meaningful impact for our investors and the environment.”
Leadership Continuity
Scott Reaves has been promoted to managing director. Reaves, who joined Domain Timber Advisors in 2017 following Domain’s acquisition of assets from another timberland manager, has been instrumental in the company’s growth. With more than two decades of industry experience, his promotion recognizes his significant contributions and ensures continuity and stability within the organization during the transition.
“I am honored by the opportunity to continue serving our investors in my new role,” said Reaves. “I look forward to leading the operations team at Domain Timber Advisors as we build on our strong foundation and expand into exciting opportunities within the natural capital sector. I also want to wish Joe the very best in his retirement.”
Commitment to Continuity and Investor Success
Domain Timber Advisors remains committed to its differentiated, value-added timberland strategy while actively expanding into other natural capital solutions and alternative land use transactions.
“Our leadership transition represents a natural evolution in the growth and development of our company, and we are excited to welcome John and Don to lead the team,” added Leardo. “Their combined expertise will position us for growth and continue to deliver results for our investors while advancing into critical areas of natural capital. We are also thrilled to promote Scott to an expanded leadership role to provide continuity with our investors and help support our new initiatives.”
Looking Ahead
These leadership updates represent a significant investment in Domain Timber Advisors’ team and future. The company remains optimistic about the timberland asset class and is committed to driving success through active management, innovation and investor partnership.
