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.

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.
