Adam D. Von Maack is a Utah-based real estate broker and advisor and Managing Partner of Align Complete Real Estate Services. He represents commercial, industrial, land, agricultural, luxury residential, and select single-family transactions across Salt Lake City, the Wasatch Front, the Wasatch Back, and throughout Utah.
He is retained when the asset is significant, the capital exposure material, or the structure demands disciplined execution. He also personally advises long-term clients, referrals, and families in the purchase and sale of their homes, buildings, and investment properties.
Adam works at the intersection of capital strategy and private ownership. His clients include local building owners, owner-occupants, developers, entrepreneurs, estate fiduciaries, agricultural landowners, private investment groups, and high-net-worth families whose holdings span multiple asset classes. He frequently represents business owners acquiring or disposing of the real estate tied to their operations, including retirement-driven transitions and owner-user acquisitions.
Rather than focusing on a single property type, Adam advises across capital events — from entitlement-driven development sites and large-scale industrial land dispositions to portfolio structuring, generational estate transitions, and architecturally significant residences. His cross-asset fluency allows him to identify leverage, manage structural risk, and position assets for durable long-term value.

Representative Engagements – Utah
Industrial & Investment Strategy
- Facilitated Stage II Utah Mega Site Certification and the disposition of a 490-acre light industrial and technology campus site in Eagle Mountain City.
- Successfully navigated zoning amendments and a multi-year master plan revision to entitle and sell a 290-acre industrial project in Salt Lake City.
- Advised a retired technology entrepreneur in forming and deploying a private investment fund that acquired over $10 million in small-bay light industrial properties prior to COVID-19. Identified the small-bay industrial segment as a constrained, high-demand asset class positioned for accelerated rent growth and appreciation. The portfolio was later disposed of at valuations representing multiples of original acquisition pricing.
Luxury Residential
- Represented a prominent Utah family in repositioning and selling a legacy estate property following a prior unsuccessful listing. Executed a disciplined market reset and achieved a record-breaking sale for the submarket, preserving generational value.
Portfolio & Owner Representation
- Represented ownership in a multi-property portfolio exchange exceeding $35 million in market value.
- Achieved record-level pricing for a retiring Utah business owner in the disposition of a light industrial/office asset.
- Represented a growing regional business in the acquisition of a mid-size industrial property in the Salt Lake area market, securing an owner-user facility aligned with operational expansion.
- Represented a startup art gallery in negotiating a retail lease at Kimball on Main in the Wasatch Back, successfully securing tenancy within a premier mixed-use project owned by a large coastal ownership group.
