Daniel

Wentling

Senior Financial Analyst

Corporate Responsibility

In his role as a Senior Financial Analyst, Dan oversees the cash management, forecasting, and financial review of several hospitality, office, and industrial assets across the country. He works closely with Asset Managers in executing property-level business plans and advising clients on changing forecasted conditions at their properties. This includes constant assumption changes, as shifts in macro-level market fundamentals occur and property-level expenses and contractual revenue expectations change. Dan also works closely with lender coordination on reserve draws, covenant testing, report delivery, and deal analysis as new leasing opportunities arise.

Experience

Dan has been with Commonwealth since 2022 and spent 9 months with Lease Administration before joining the Asset Management team. Prior to joining the firm, Dan expanded his knowledge and understanding of the real estate and property management industry working for Liberty Property Trust, Prologis, and Workspace Property Trust over an 8-year period. His experience grew from leasing multi-family residential spaces and coordinating commercial tenant services, to managing the day-to-day operation of 800,000 square feet of office and flex properties with Workspace and 2 million square feet of industrial properties with Liberty and Prologis.

Education

Dan graduated from James Madison University in 2013 with a Bachelor of Science in Writing, Rhetoric, and Technical Communication and a Minor in Music Industry.

What Matters

What’s the most rewarding part of helping a client buy, sell, or operate a property?

I enjoy the operation side of properties during client hold periods when there are a few hurdles to overcome to “right the ship”. Being involved in a distressed asset’s performance turnaround and being able to report positively to clients is always very rewarding.

How do you help clients see opportunities others might miss?

Since I learned and grew through the Property Management side of the industry before coming over to the asset management side, I tend to see things from the tenant perspective and how they’d experience a building. With a critical property management and operations eye, I’m able to put myself in the tenant’s shoes and identify where the building experience could improve or where it’s already above expectations.

What do you enjoy most about working at Commonwealth?

I enjoy the people I work with, the trust they have in me to do my job well, and the fun we have in and out of the office.

What are you doing on a perfect day off?

The perfect day off starts with a morning coffee boat ride and swim with my dog before making a big ol’ breakfast sandwich. Then I’m heading to my local coffee shop on the way to a round of golf. Then we’re firing up the grill and hitting the lake for some afternoon water sports. The rest of the evening is spent on the boat, anchored out and tied up with friends.
