Led by co-founders Michael Brennan (Chairman and Managing Principal) and Kevin Brennan (Chief Investment Officer and Managing Principal), Brennan Investment Group has actively expanded its portfolio. In January 2026, the firm acquired a 13-property industrial portfolio totaling over 800,000 square feet across the Chicagoland and Milwaukee markets. This was followed by the acquisition of two Class A industrial buildings in Nashville in April 2026, marking its eighth investment in that market since 2021. The firm's current portfolio spans 29 states, encompassing approximately 57-60 million square feet, with over $6.5 billion in industrial real estate acquired or developed since its inception.
