Leadership
Scopello Capital Partners is led by two industry veterans with more than 60 years of combined experience in commercial real estate investment and multifamily operations. Both principals have navigated the Dot-com bust, Global Financial Crisis, and COVID-19, applying hard-earned lessons to every investment decision.
Frank Marinello
Co-Founder & Managing Partner
Frank Marinello brings more than 30 years of experience in commercial real estate across acquisitions, development, and repositioning. Prior to co-founding Scopello, he served as Vice President of Acquisitions and Development at Basin Street Properties, leading the acquisition, development, and redevelopment of more than five million square feet across multiple property types.
Frank's experience informs Scopello's disciplined approach to underwriting and capital allocation. He prioritizes downside protection over aggressive return projections, applying conservative assumptions and stress-testing across multiple economic environments.
Frank holds a bachelor's degree in Business Administration from California State University, Chico and is a licensed California Real Estate Broker.
Scott Mencaccy
Co-Founder & Managing Partner
Scott Mencaccy has more than 30 years of experience in multifamily operations and property management. He currently serves as President of BLVD Residential, overseeing more than 14,000 apartment units across California, Nevada, and Arizona.
Prior to joining BLVD in 2011, Scott served as President of Pinnacle Realty Management Company, directing operations and regional growth across the western United States.
Scott's operational expertise is the foundation of Scopello's integrated platform. BLVD Residential provides direct oversight of property management, leasing, maintenance, and construction—eliminating execution risk and ensuring accountability throughout the investment lifecycle.
Scott holds a bachelor's degree in Finance from Pepperdine University and is a licensed General B Contractor.
Alignment
