The Hutensky Group is a company dedicated to creating value in retail real estate. Since its formation in 1979, The Hutensky Group has bought and sold, managed and leased, and constructed and redeveloped more than 200 shopping centers throughout the country. Based in Hartford, Connecticut, principals Allan and Brad Hutensky lead a team of talented retail real estate professionals. Through the combination of years of experience and entrepreneurial vision, The Hutensky Group realizes opportunity in shopping centers with high vacancy rates, older formats or operational problems both for our own portfolio or on a fee basis on behalf of others.

While The Hutensky Group has experience with virtually every type of retail property, we specialize in small to medium-sized enclosed malls and strip centers anchored by supermarkets, discount department stores, and specialty retailers. We also have significant experience in urban retail projects including projects in Queens, the Bronx and Harlem, New York. We have built our reputation on strong national and regional leasing relationships, a proven ability to bring the capital and skills necessary to convert an opportunity into realizable profit and our creativity in problem-solving, which stems in part from our development roots.

Our company today has three core businesses:

• Principal Business - Acquisition and repositioning of underperforming retail properties characterized by high vacancy, obsolete format or poor performance.

• Fee Business for Third Parties - Our fee business is focused on the redevelopment, leasing and sale of retail projects that provide substantial value-enhancing opportunities for the owner. We provide, on a fee basis, some or all of the high-quality services that we perform on the properties we own.

• Urban Business - We develop, for both our own account and for community development groups and/or public entities, shopping centers in some of our nation's core urban neighborhoods and communities. In addition to bringing a full complement of leasing, construction, management and development services, we can provide and/or help secure both public and private capital to bring these projects to completion.
