In his most recent role as executive VP of finance and accounting, he was active in leading the continued development of the company’s accounting function, which has strengthened Conifer’s financial performance. “We are thrilled to announce Rob’s promotion to Chief Financial Officer,” Sam Leone, president of Conifer Realty, said in the release. “His extensive background in finance and accounting, coupled with his deep understanding of our company’s operations, positions him as the ideal candidate for this role.

There, he was responsible for the financial reporting of the company’s portfolio of affordable-housing investments throughout the U.S., as well as for the financial consolidation of more than $2.7 billion in investment funds. At that time, Centerline had the nation’s largest portfolio of affordable units. As a certified public accountant (CPA), Corredine began his career as an auditor at Davie Kaplan, CPA, P.C. in Rochester. He earned a bachelor’s degree in accounting from Nazareth College.
