Life at Sentry Commercial
Welcome Back, Matt Milano! Celebrating Family and Dedication at Sentry Commercial
We’re thrilled to announce that Matt Milano, a valued member of our Sentry Commercial Property Management team, has returned from paternity leave after the birth of his second child, Cole Lincoln Milano. Big sister Keeley was excited to welcome her little brother, and we are delighted to share a heartwarming photo of Matt with his daughters.
Family Comes First At Sentry Commercial, we recognize the irreplaceable role of fathers in their children’s lives. We believe in supporting our team not just in their professional roles but also in their most important job: being a parent. Matt’s time off is a testament to our commitment to ensuring our employees can fully embrace significant life moments.
A Supportive Workplace We pride ourselves on creating a work environment that values and facilitates work-life balance. It’s essential for fostering a healthy and productive workplace where everyone can thrive both personally and professionally.

🌟 Highlights from the Real Estate Finance Association of CT Event on February 29th 🏗️
We had an insightful panel discussion last Thursday at the REFA event, led by industry experts; Adam Winstanley (Winstanley Enterprises), Nate Kirschner (Hillwood), and Jay Dacey (Integrated Builders), with our own Mark Duclos, SIOR, CRE, providing expert moderation. The discussion focused on the evolving industrial real estate landscape in Connecticut and Western Massachusetts. Here’s a snapshot of the insights shared:
Vacancy Rates: Holding strong in the face of market fluctuations.
Market Rents: Still on the rise, albeit at a gentler pace.
Demand Dynamics: Steady, with promising signs of strengthening.
Investment Challenges: Present, mainly due to a bid-ask disconnect.
New Construction: A path riddled with lengthy approvals and potential litigation. The NIMBY (Not In My Backyard) sentiment is quite prominent.
Supply Chain: Improving, though electronics remain a bottleneck – both in availability and cost.
Land and Utilities: Sparse and challenging, especially away from residential areas.
The insights provided valuable perspectives on market trends, challenges, and investment opportunities. Awesome to be a part of such an amazing event.
