John P. Morrissey '80

John Morrissey is a founding principal of Jackson Cross Partners, LLC (JCP). John entered the real estate business in 1986 as a project manager with national developer LINPRO and then joined Rouse & Associates, the predecessor to Liberty Property Trust. John’s brokerage career began in 1992 when he joined the Jackson Cross Company, where he quickly became a top corporate real estate producer in the Suburban Philadelphia market. He was instrumental in opening the Berwyn office and continued building the suburban brokerage business until he left in 2000 to start his own company, Morrissey Partners.

In 2003, along with two other former Jackson Cross Company brokers, Lou Battagliese and Pete Davisson, John formed the current edition of JCP, a full-service commercial real estate advisory firm, specializing in lending real estate expertise that adds value to regional and national corporations both locally and around the world. Its consultative approach is data-driven and technology-enabled, which aligns the objectives of a real estate portfolio with the strategic business plan of the corporation. The JCP Platform comprises three divisions: Advisory Services, Brokerage and Corporate Real Estate.

John currently serves on the Saint Joseph’s University Board of Trustees and on the CCRES Foundation. Over the years, he has served on many non-profit boards and organizations underlining a life-long commitment to service. His involvement includes such organizations as:

The Zoning Hearing Board of Whiteland Township
Chester County Commercial Industrial Investment Council (President)
Chester County Economic Development Council (Board of Directors)
Saint Joseph’s Church (an active parishioner)
Board for Bishop Shanahan High School (Chairman of the Board)
Foundation for Catholic Education
The Redeemer Health Golf Klassic in aid of the South Jersey and Philadelphia Food Pantries (Chairman)
Friends of Erik (Founding Member)

John received a BS in Food Marketing from St. Joseph’s University in 1980 and an MBA from Drexel University in 1985. He is a Board Member of SJU Real Estate and Construction Group and a licensed broker in the States of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and North Carolina. He is a member of the prestigious Society of Industrial and Office Realtors, the nation’s most respected professional realtor organization and has been recognized with various professional achievement awards over the years.

John resides in Downingtown, Chester County, Pennsylvania with his wife. They have four children: Mary Kate (Trevor Blake), Sean Patrick, William and Tara.
