30+ years. $350M+ closed. Getting owners the maximum value.
WHO WE ARE
Doug's job is getting owners the maximum value the market will bear. On the sell side, that means effective marketing and hard negotiation — setting the right price, running a competitive process, and closing the deal at the top of what the asset can command. On the lease side, it means putting the right tenants in the right properties at rates that reflect what the market can actually pay. Strategic lease agreements aren't just about filling space; they're about placing tenants who pay on time and hold the long term, at prices that maximize the owner's return.
Based in Long Beach, Doug serves owners and investors across Southern California, with national reach on NNN investments and 1031 exchanges. When the tax side matters — 1031 coordination, Cost Segregation, DST placements — he brings that capability. It's a feature of the work, not the pitch.
Doug leads a team that includes Emma Storey, who focuses on leasing and property management, and Amanda Stayton, an associate advisor supporting investment sales and NNN transactions.
A three-phase engagement built for commercial real estate.
We scope the engagement around your goals — hold strategy, disposition timing, pricing, tenant risk, and 1031 coordination where relevant. Every piece of advice is anchored in what actually matters to you.
Rigorous analysis of tenancy, lease structure, capital markets, and comparables. Direct communication, no generic decks.
Expert negotiation, LOI through close. Qualified intermediary coordination where 1031s are in play. Across industrial, office, retail, NNN, self-storage, and land — Doug has closed them all.
The team guided us through a complex 1031 exchange with a 14-day identification window and closed on time, despite a last-minute financing replacement. That kind of execution is rare.

They underwrote the cap rate compression we expected in the submarket before we listed and recommended holding for two more quarters. The final trade cleared 35 basis points tighter than our original expectation.
Family Office
Strip center sale, Huntington Beach — $9.4M at 5.1% cap
