Beck-Reit is no stranger to 1031 exchanges. In fact, you may call us the 1031 experts. In 2022 we closed two 1031 exchanges, and have never failed. The rigorous timeline to identify a property to purchase before Uncle Sam tries to swoop in and grab his “share” can be intimidating for most, but our meticulous process makes every one of those 45 days of the identification period count.

The Mann Report publication wrote an inspiring article geared towards to importance of bringing owners into CRE. It’s no surprise that Beck-Reit’s own DeLea Becker was top of mind on this topic, as bringing more women into Commercial Real Estate is probably her favorite passion project.

According to research by BiggerPockets, women represent less than 2% of commercial real estate investors. This figure is surprising given that more women own and manage their own businesses today than ever before. Commercial real estate is an asset class that offers tremendous potential for growth, especially when you consider the current market conditions. However, most women are not investing in commercial real estate for one main reason: lack of knowledge about how it works and how they can get started investing. But this isn't true for Women In Commercial Real Estate. For Women in our profession, investing is squarely in our Circle of Competence.

There is potential to create $1 trillion dollars of value for women in commercial real estate by 2025 if we start investing like men. It's a $3.5 trillion dollar industry, and it's the largest one in the world.

DeLea attended her first CREi Summit last year and was blown away by the people, synergy, and abundance of shared ‘secrets’ to building a social media brand. She took tons of notes and applied much of what she learned throughout the year. How’d she do? Well, DeLea made the list just as she planned. Not only did she make the list but she ranked 26 out of 150… a nice baseline when she’s set on reaching #1. The list is packed with 150 Power House Commercial Experts across the USA - they are at the top of their game.
