We acquired 4403 W Commerce in December of 2020 after selling 2707 Rogge Lane. The Rogge property was an East Side shopping center near the Mueller that required a gut renovation. We had it leased up and were working through our redevelopment plans when Austin’s growth out-paced us and a bigger fish came with an offer we couldn’t refuse.

Similar to our 8808 Barker Cypress acquisition, we felt like we could sell high in the Austin market and move our gains into a safe and stable NNN investment elsewhere.

“I like money. I do, I like numbers, I like negotiating, I like the challenge of turning a no into a yes. I really do like money. I like knowing I have it, I grew up in a house where there was never enough. Raised by a single mom OnlyParent. Not going to sit here and tell you I only do what I do to take care of other people. Because it is OK to do it for ourselves. For how it makes us feel. Secure - yeah. Powerful - Absolutely. I am so glad that it is finally acceptable for women to talk about AMBITION openly. But don’t let money be a dirty word. We can like that too”

Feasibility is about to expire on the sale of our fully-leased, 20,000sqft Warehouse in Creedmoor, TX, which means we've got nearly $2M cash to place in a safe NNN investment.

We're willing to go up to $4M for the right property... send us a winner and we'll show you the money!!

Purchase Requirement:

• NNN Lease, Long Term Lease (5 year +)

• Strong Tenant (Community Oriented, Recession Proof Industry, Solid FInancials

• New Construction (2015-Present)

• Austin/San Antonio/Dallas/Houston Location

This is not DeLea’s first rodeo, she has sat on the Red News Forecast Retail panel before. This is her 3-peat performance and the 1st time was the day before the pandemic shut down the world and she recalls an uncommon prediction that was in line with the outcome. Read about it in her blog below. You won’t want to miss DeLea talk about retail numbers, strategies, adaptive reuse, e-commerce impact, and trend analysis predictions.

Big welcome to Kelly Cloud and Kate Rhodes. This is more than adding Brokers to our Company Roster - this is DeLea putting her money where her mouth is. …..

Carrie Bobb is my HERO :

#1 - I love this person. She is my Hero.

#2 - What the What? What kind of man goes to all this crazy PREMEDIATED EFFORT to do this? And then to the company doesn’t quickly Do The Right Thing?

#3 - This is Horse Shit and I am pissed.

#4 - I’ve got to go create a place that is safe for Women in Commercial Real Estate Brokerage. Not only in my Company Policy & Employee/Contractor Agreements but boots on the ground. I need to hire women, seek them out, give them a safe place at Beck-Reit. Safe from that horse shit. Women have enough to deal with keeping themselves safe from harm, they shouldn’t have to worry about it coming from their bosses. I can’t save all the women, but I can take it one “Woman Hire At a Time”.

It started when DeLea and Mark met for the 1st time for breakfast at Chumikals in 2017 (a favorite East Austin Joint for both) and the breakfast stretched into lunch. A couple of days later the property was toured and under contract - the rest is Award-Winning History!

The inspiring architects at Dick Clark & Associates have been rightfully recognized for their incredible office design at 2120 E 7th St - winning the Austin Business Journal’s 2021 CRE award for Best Office Rehab.

Originally an 80s pawnshop, 2120 E 7th was built like a concrete bunker with just one window and no insulation or even air conditioning for most of the space. DCA’s ground up design and construction has transformed the site into an eye-catching functional space perfect for creative office and retail needs.

Beck-Reit’s Previous Office Will Be Razed for Mixed-Use Development

Beck-Reit & Sons Construction performed a gut renovation at 2131 Theo between 2014-2016, an adaptive reuse project that turned the aging auto repair shop into a 5-unit creative office space with shared conference room, kitchen, and lobby. The finished project was managed by Beck-Reit Asset Management and leased by Beck-Reit Commercial Real Estate until 2020, when the developers came knocking with an offer we couldn’t refuse.

East Austin:

In many ways, development has displaced the cultural arts traditions of East Austin, long the home of the city’s Black community. Now, its champions — Black artists, creatives and community leaders — are working to restore that soul.

Capitol View Arts and the Austin Justice Coalition, with support from local artists and dozens of volunteers from the Austin area, painted a ‘Black Artists Matter’ mural on East 11th Street the morning of Thursday, June 18 2021. #BlackArtistMatter

Here, DeLea shares where and why she sees inflation creeping into the market, how inflation interacts with typical investment vehicles, and how Commercial Real Estate is one of the best places to safeguard wealth against it.

"Everyone in this room right now should feel extremely lucky working in this city"
