Sarah Maginnis
Executive Director
Sarah Maginnis has served as Executive Director of NAIOP Greater Philadelphia since 2018, and since that time has spearhead a quadrupling of the chapter’s membership. She has implemented new programs and organized dozens of speaker events, industry panel discussions, and fundraisers.
Maginnis is proud to coordinate the chapter’s successful DEI and career development initiatives, such as the NAIOP-Drexel summer program, designed to introduce high school students in underrepresented populations to careers in commercial real estate, and the annual Developing Leaders program for real estate professionals under the age of 35.
A rising figure in the city’s real estate community, Maginnis helped steer the creation of the Philadelphia Real Estate Alliance (PREA), and in 2022 was named one of Bisnow’s Unsung Heros in Philadelphia commercial real estate. She also testifies for NAIOP Greater Philadelphia in front of local and regional legislative bodies.
Prior to joining NAIOP, Maginnis was part of the team at Liberty Property Trust.
Always advocating the benefits of NAIOP Greater Philadelphia, Sarah can be reached at smaginnis@naiopphila.org or by calling 267-579-2901.
