KD Capital Auctions added Tim Pfister to its growing team as vice president of auctions and appraisals, bringing nearly two decades of experience in industrial appraisal, auctions, machinery remarketing and asset disposition.
Throughout his career with several industrial liquidation firms, Pfister has managed the valuation and remarketing of machinery and equipment across virtually every industry and level of technology. His experience spans projects of every size, from individual machine sales and complete production lines to complex, multi-facility liquidations covering tens of millions of square feet.
Pfister’s extensive market knowledge and nationwide network of machinery buyers, sellers, manufacturers, lenders, trustees and industry professionals allow him to approach every engagement with a clear understanding of both asset value and current buyer demand.
“Tim brings an exceptional combination of technical market knowledge, industry relationships and hands-on experience to KD Capital Auctions,” Jeff Briese, vice president of KD Capital Auctions, said. “His proven ability to develop effective disposition strategies and maximize recovery value makes him a tremendous addition to our team and an important resource for our clients.”
Pfister is known throughout the industry for his direct, client-focused approach. He works closely with stakeholders to understand their objectives, evaluate their assets and determine the most effective path forward, whether that involves an auction, negotiated sale, complete facility liquidation, appraisal or customized asset-recovery program.
His broad experience will further strengthen KDA’s ability to assist manufacturers, financial institutions, private equity firms, bankruptcy professionals, trustees, receivers and business owners during periods of growth, restructuring, relocation or transition.
A graduate of Northern Illinois University, Pfister brings a sales-driven perspective to KDA’s appraisal and auction services, along with a proven record of successfully managing complex industrial projects from initial valuation through final disposition.
