About Me
Professional Background
Bryce Blanchard joined Newmark Mountain West in 1999 and became a principal at the firm within a few years. Over the course of his 26-year real estate career, Bryce has closed over 500 investment sales transactions with a combined value more than $4.8 billion. In 2024, Newmark awarded Bryce with Agent of the Year for the 4th time in his career, an award given to the highest producing agent.
In addition to private client sales, Bryce transacts some of the most noteworthy deals in the marketplace each year. In 2017, he brokered the largest retail deal in Utah, followed by 2018’s largest industrial sale in the state. In 2019, Bryce set a record for the highest achieved price per square foot for a historic office investment transaction in Salt Lake City CBD’s history.
2020 brought unique challenges to the investment marketplace that provided opportunities for Bryce to demonstrate market leadership and guidance with a tremendous number of closings, which led to the Utah CCIM Chapter honoring him as the 2020 Investment Sales Agent of the Year for the state of Utah and again in 2024. In 2021, Bryce brokered the all-time highest dollar per square foot suburban office sale, which was one of 37 transactions that resulted in shattering the commission record for Newmark in Salt Lake. In 2022, Bryce brokered a historic property sale featuring the largest office to residential conversion project in Utah’s history adjacent to Temple Square. In 2023, the Utah CCIM Chapter awarded Bryce the Top Investment Sale of the Year for the State of Utah.
Bryce is a widely published author as well as a sought-after speaker for seminars and industry events, having served as a key speaker for the NAIOP Symposium on four different occasions. He enjoys writing articles, participating on panels and consulting with his network of associates on matters of real estate, business and investing.
Bryce grew up in rural Oregon and after Graduating from Linfield University playing baseball and basketball and competing on the forensic debate team prior to moving to Utah for an MBA in Finance at BYU. At that time, he met the original founders of NAI Utah and became one of the first team members and eventually the 4th largest shareholder in the company, which later became Newmark. Outside of real estate Bryce dedicates himself to youth coaching, charitable pursuits, playing golf and pickleball and making memories with his wife and four children.
