What a great day in Somerset, NJ at Fleet Forward: The Tour!
October 14, 2025When regulatory expertise meets strategic execution, magic happens – our “Meet Your Regulator” program in Arizona proved this once again!
Just wrapped an intensive 1.5-day deep dive with 30 regulators from the Arizona Corporation Commission-Securities DIvisision, alongside ADISA and our HillStaffer, LLC team. From 1031 exchanges to non-traded REITs, we facilitated the kind of honest, no-press dialogue that transforms how our industry engages with state regulators.
This is what 20+ years in financial services has taught me: The best regulatory relationships aren’t built through formal presentations or lobbying meetings. They’re forged when industry veterans and regulators sit across from each other, roll up their sleeves, and tackle the complexities of alternative investments together.
What started as a pilot has expanded nationwide because it works. We’re not just bridging the traditional “us versus them” mentality – we’re creating collaborative partnerships that protect investors while supporting legitimate capital formation.
The result? Trust. Understanding. And the kind of strategic opportunities that only emerge when you stop talking past each other and start talking with each other.

Thank you to our host Mark Dinell, Director, and Wendy Coy, Assistant Director, and their team of 30 regulators and financial professionals from the Arizona Corporation Commission-Securities DIvisision and with whom ADISA and HillStaffer, LLC spent an intensive 1.5 days diving deep into the complexities of alternative investments. From 1031 exchanges and DSTs to non-traded REITs and direct participation programs, John Grady, Greg Mausz, Catherine Bowman, Deborah (Schwager) Froling, and Thomas Rosenfield, JD, CAE facilitated crucial dialogue on product structures, due diligence standards, and regulatory perspectives that matter most to our industry.
This wasn’t just another meeting: it was strategic bridge-building at its finest. HillStaffer, LLC’s work with clients including ADISA has transformed how alternative investment professionals engage with state regulators, creating the kind of trust and understanding that’s rare in our industry. What started as a pilot program has now expanded nationwide.
The magic happens when regulatory expertise meets strategic execution. By facilitating these honest, no-press dialogues, we’re helping dissolve the traditional “us versus them” mentality that often characterizes industry-regulator relationships. Instead, we’re building collaborative partnerships that protect investors while supporting legitimate capital formation.
At HillStaffer, this is what we do: whether it’s with state securities administrators, Congressional committees, or industry leaders, we specialize in turning complex regulatory challenges into strategic opportunities.
