David G. Marshall has been a leader in real estate investment, development and management for almost 40 years. Since 1976 when he began to acquire properties on behalf of Bass Brothers Enterprises of Texas, David’s sound investing and real estate acumen have resulted in the acquisition and management of several billion dollars in real estate assets.

David was a Senior Vice President at Colonial Mortgage Service Company prior to his tenure as Managing General Partner of David G. Marshall & Co.

In 1987, David acquired Ameribass, renaming the company Amerimar Realty Company—under which he continues to spearhead opportunistic investing across diversified asset classes nationwide. In additional to his leadership of Amerimar Realty Company, David also started and served as Chairman and founding CEO of Amerimar Enterprises, Inc. from 1992 to 2000.

To that end, David was Chairman of the Board of Fox Chase Cancer Center, now part of Temple University Health System, where he also serves on the executive committee and the finance committee.

In addition to his work with Fox Chase, David is the director of the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Fund and is a member of its executive committee.
