Brokerage & Transaction Services

Brokerage/Transactional Management

Brokerage and Transactional ManagementThe Estes Group, Inc and its associates have extensive experience in all facets of real estate investment brokerage. We continually work with investors, investment companies, life companies and lending institutions, loan servicers to acquire, dispose and lease their assets.

We are one of the top investment property sales firms in Mississippi and the Gulf South. We have assisted in the acquisition and disposition of investment properties of approximately $50,000,000 in the past three years. We serve a host of clients including: private equity groups, banks, special servicers, life companies, REITS, investment firms, and high-net worth investors. We leverage off the experience of our team and affiliates who have owned more than $100,000,000 in investment properties.

Acquisition Strategies: Our highly educated and skilled investment brokerage team has helped a myriad of investors and investment companies achieve financial success by helping them strategically find, locate and evaluate investment opportunities. We always put the Client’s needs first and willing to inform them if the property or project is not the right fit. Our experience and training gives us a distinct advantage in underwriting investment properties. In addition, understanding the local market and submarket characteristics are crucial to the underwriting process…..and in all candor usually makes the property a success or failure. Our firm’s dedication to integrity and conservative nature helps insure that investors are making wise investment choices.

Disposition Strategies: We realize that brokerage is not a one-size fits all. We work with our clients to properly price the property and identify a strategic marketing strategy. We don’t just “pound” a sign and hope for the best. We send bi-weekly activity reports to our clients and continually have a discussion of marketing strategies. Constant communication with our Clients is what sets us apart from our competition.

Leasing Strategies: Similar to Disposition, our highly trained agents take a “strategic” and “scientific” approach to developing a leasing plan to the property as there is not one way to lease a property. We implement a direct marketing strategy using the latest leasing software programs which will show product and service needs of the community and submarket. In addition, our team members have also integrated Social Media into our marketing efforts and make the property highly visible to other commercial agents, owners, and users of commercial property. Again, ongoing Client Communication is instrumental to a successful leasing program.

Local & National Property Listing Database: Our firm believes that maximizing exposure to properties will bring the highest price. We invest in the highest level of technology available and in doing so we subscribe to most all local and national property listing databases. Our subscriptions include CoStar, Loopnet, and Catalyst. We also subscribe to a national database of over 200,000 investors who purchase commercial real estate. In addition, we leverage the associations we are active in including CCIM Institute, Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM); BOMA and International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC).

1031 Tax-Deferred Specialty: Our firm’s principal has a great deal of experience in helping 1031 Buyers through this difficult and time consuming process. Because of the time constraints in meeting the IRS’ time frame, it is necessary to be very diligent and strategic on which projects you chose to put under contract. The 1031 process should ideally start prior to the selling the “relinquished” property. Our firm understands that when we accept a 1031 assignment that they are dedicating themselves to finding investment options at a rapid pace. Buyers should only use investment property brokers who understand the 1031 process. Usually there are 100s of thousands of dollars at stake.
