He has sold over 200 buildings over the last 30+ years and leased even more.

Born and raised in Dallas, Bob entered the world of commercial-industrial real estate in 1980. Initially, he worked all over Dallas' vast industrial warehouse districts, but by 1982 he became fascinated with the old Trinity Industrial District and found himself spending a great deal of time there.

As early as 1982, he leased his 1st standard office-warehouse on Slocum St. to a showroom user and spent most of the next 30 years expanding the Dallas Design District as a viable choice to one of the four large institutional showroom plazas or the World Trade Center. Today, the Design District consists of over 380 showrooms many of whom are lifelong clients of Bob.
