Whether you own property you need to sell, you're searching for your next investment, or you need space for your growing business, I provide hands-on expertise for retail and industrial properties throughout Palm Beach County including: West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Jupiter, Wellington, and Boynton Beach.
No corporate bureaucracy. No team of assistants. Just direct access to an experienced commercial real estate agent who specializes in helping individual owners, investors, and tenants maximize their returns.
How I Help You Win in Palm Beach County Commercial Real Estate
I work exclusively with retail and industrial properties in Palm Beach County because narrow focus creates better results. Instead of being a generalist who dabbles in everything, I've built deep expertise in the property types and submarkets that matter most to individual owners, investors, and business operators.
My typical clients are:
Property owners who need to sell or lease their retail space or industrial building, often because they're retiring, relocating, tired of being a Landlord, or facing a tenant vacancy they need to fill quickly.
Investors and buyers who are building a commercial real estate portfolio in Florida and want someone who will show them every available option, not just what's in-house.
Business owners and tenants who need retail or industrial space and want a broker who will negotiate on their behalf, not just agree to whatever the landlord is offering.
I work with small to mid-market properties where individual attention and aggressive strategy make the biggest difference.
For Property Owners: Sell or Lease Your Retail or Industrial Property Without Leaving Money on the Table.
You've built equity in your commercial property. Now it's time to unlock that value—whether you're selling to retire, relocating your business, or facing an upcoming vacancy.
Selling Your Retail or Industrial Property in Palm Beach County
If you're ready to sell your retail space or industrial building in West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, or any of Palm Beach Counties surrounding areas, you need more than a passive agent who lists it on the MLS, or maybe doesn’t even do that, and hopes for the best.
Here's what I do differently:
Aggressive marketing strategy from day one. Professional photography, detailed property information packages, targeted outreach to qualified buyers, and strategic positioning across all commercial real estate platforms. I don't cut corners on marketing because I treat your listing like my own investment.
Honest pricing guidance based on current market data. I won't overprice your property to win the listing, and I won't underprice it to get a quick sale. We'll analyze comparable sales in your specific Palm Beach County submarket and price it to attract serious buyers while maximizing your return.
Hands-on presence throughout the process. I personally walk your property, meet with potential buyers, handle negotiations, and manage the complex due diligence process. Commercial contracts require attorney review, often times environmental studies, and careful coordination, I stay on top of every detail.
Creative problem solving when properties have challenges. Does your retail space have an unusual layout? Has your industrial building been sitting vacant? I specialize in finding solutions where other agents see dead ends. Sometimes the right buyer isn't the obvious one, it takes strategic thinking and targeted outreach.
Leasing Your Retail or Industrial Property in Palm Beach County
Facing an upcoming tenant vacancy? The sooner you bring me in, the better. The more runway I have before a tenant leaves, the more time I have to develop a marketing strategy and find qualified prospects before your cash flow stops.
For retail landlords: I understand that retail tenants need visibility, parking, and the right co-tenancy. Whether you have a strip center in Boca Raton or a standalone retail building in West Palm Beach, I'll help you identify the right tenant mix and negotiate lease terms that protect your interests.
For industrial landlords: Industrial tenants have specific operational needs—loading dock access, ceiling height, power capacity, zoning compliance. I help you position your property to attract quality tenants who will stay long-term and take care of your building.
What's included in my landlord representation:
Professional marketing materials and photography
Listing on MLS and all major commercial real estate portals
Targeted outreach to tenant representatives and businesses actively seeking space
Property showings and tours (I show the property personally)
Lease negotiation and transaction management
Coordination with attorneys for lease document review
The difference between filling a space and filling it with the right tenant is significant. Let's do this right.
For Investors & Buyers: Find and Acquire the Right Retail or Industrial Property in Palm Beach County
Building a commercial real estate portfolio in Florida? Looking for owner-user space for your business? I'll help you identify opportunities, analyze deals, and structure competitive offers—without limiting you to only what my company has for sale.
Why Buyer Representation Matters in Commercial Real Estate
A number of commercial real estate firms push their in-house inventory first. Why? Because when they represent both the buyer and seller, they double their commission. The problem? You end up buying what's convenient for them, not what's best for you.
I don't operate that way.
I show you every available option. Whether it's my listing, another broker's listing, or an off-market opportunity I've cultivated through relationships, you see it all. My job is to help you find the right property, not to sell you my inventory.
I provide honest investment analysis. Is the property actually worth what they're asking? What are the real operating expenses? Are there hidden issues with zoning, environmental concerns, or deferred maintenance? I help you underwrite deals realistically so you don't overpay.
I negotiate aggressively on your behalf. Commercial real estate transactions involve complex terms beyond just price—due diligence periods, inspection contingencies, financing terms, closing timelines. I structure offers designed to protect your interests and get you the property at the right price.

Investment Strategy & Portfolio Building
If you're building a commercial real estate portfolio in Palm Beach County, I help you:
Identify submarkets with the best risk-adjusted returns. Not all Palm Beach County locations are created equal. Some areas are appreciating rapidly, others are stagnant. I provide local market intelligence to help you deploy capital wisely.
Diversify your holdings strategically. Should you buy multiple smaller properties or one larger asset? Focus on one property type or diversify? I help you think through portfolio construction based on your investment goals and risk tolerance.
Analyze cash flow realistically. Cap rates and pro formas can be deceiving. I help you underwrite deals with realistic expense assumptions, vacancy factors, and capital expenditure reserves so you're not surprised after closing.
Structure offers that win without overpaying. In competitive markets, the lowest price doesn't always win. I help you craft offers that appeal to sellers while protecting your downside.
For Tenants & Business Owners: Find and Negotiate the Right Retail or Industrial Space for Your Business
Need space for your growing business? I represent tenants in lease negotiations throughout Palm Beach County—ensuring you get favorable terms, fair pricing, and a space that actually works for your operations.
Why You Need Tenant Representation
Most business owners approach leasing commercial space the same way they'd rent an apartment, they call the number on the "For Lease" sign and negotiate directly with the landlord's agent.
Here's the problem: that agent works for the landlord, not you. Their job is to get the landlord the highest rent, longest lease term, and most favorable conditions possible. You're negotiating against a professional without representation.
Tenant representation levels the playing field.
I work for you, not the landlord. My job is to get you the best possible space at the most favorable terms.
What I Help Tenants Find in Palm Beach County
Retail space for your business:
Restaurant locations with proper grease traps, ventilation, and seating capacity
Retail storefronts in high-visibility shopping centers
Standalone retail buildings for flagship locations
Retail space in mixed-use developments
Industrial space for your business:

Flex space combining office and warehouse functions

Contractor Garages
What's Included in Tenant Representation
Comprehensive space search: I show you every available option that fits your criteria—not just what one landlord has available. This includes on-market and off-market opportunities throughout West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Jupiter, Wellington, and Boynton Beach.
Property tours and evaluation: I personally tour spaces with you, helping you evaluate whether each location truly meets your operational needs. Ceiling height, power capacity, parking ratios, zoning compliance, visibility, access. These details matter.
Lease negotiation: Commercial leases are complex. Rent isn't the only factor, tenant improvement allowances, lease length, renewal options, maintenance responsibilities, CAM charges, exclusivity clauses, and early termination provisions all impact your bottom line. I negotiate terms that protect your interests.
Due diligence coordination: Before you sign, we verify zoning allows your intended use, review the landlord's financials (if it's a multi-tenant property), and ensure you're not inheriting someone else's problems.
Transaction management: From letter of intent through lease execution, I manage the process, coordinating with attorneys, reviewing lease documents, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
Important Questions I Help You Answer
Is this rent at, above, or below current market rates for this submarket?
What tenant improvement allowance should you negotiate?
Should you sign a 5-year lease with renewal options, or negotiate a shorter initial term?
What happens if your business grows and you need more space?
Are there hidden costs in the lease (CAM charges, tax escalations, insurance requirements)?
Does the location actually support the type of business you're running?
If you're a business owner who's never leased commercial space before, this guidance is invaluable. If you're an experienced operator, you know how much money proper representation can save you.
Specialized Experience: Cannabis Real Estate & Adaptive Reuse Projects
While my primary focus is retail and industrial properties in Palm Beach County, I have specialized experience in two niche areas:
Cannabis Real Estate
I have worked extensively with licensed cannabis operators and property owners throughout Florida, including site selection for license applications, cultivation facilities, processing spaces, and retail dispensary locations. Cannabis real estate has unique zoning restrictions, title company limitations, and legal considerations for property owners. If you're a cannabis license holder operating in Florida and need real estate guidance, let's talk.
Adaptive Reuse Projects
Adaptive reuse, repurposing an existing structure instead of demolishing it, is some of the most rewarding work I do. When a property goes dark after a tenant vacancy, many owners assume demolition is the only option. Often, there's tremendous value in reimagining the space for a different use. If you own a vacant retail or industrial property and aren't sure what the next step should be, I'd love to tour it with you and explore creative alternatives.
These specialized services are available on a case-by-case basis for the right projects.
How Working Together Works
Whether you're selling, buying, or leasing, the process starts the same way:
Step 1: No-Pressure Consultation Call (15-30 minutes)
We'll discuss your goals, timeline, concerns, and whether I'm the right fit. This is a conversation, not a sales pitch. You'll get honest answers about what's realistic and what's not.
Step 2: Face-to-Face Property Meeting
I don't do deals remotely. We'll meet in person, either to walk your existing property or tour available spaces. This is where my local Palm Beach County knowledge becomes valuable.
Step 3: Execute Your Custom Strategy
Based on your specific situation, we'll implement the right approach—aggressive marketing for sellers, comprehensive search for buyers, strategic negotiation for tenants.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to hire a commercial real estate broker in Palm Beach County?
For sellers and landlords, commercial real estate commissions are negotiable based on property type and complexity. During our initial consultation, I'll explain the specific fee structure for your situation.
Do you only work with retail and industrial properties?
Yes. I've narrowed my focus exclusively to retail and industrial properties in Palm Beach County because specialization creates better results for my clients. I don't spread myself thin trying to be an expert in every property type. That said, I have specialized experience with cannabis real estate and adaptive reuse projects that I take on selectively. I have a transaction history with land and multifamily and will review deals on a select basis before committing to working on those property types.
What areas of Palm Beach County do you cover?
I work throughout Palm Beach County with primary focus on West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Jupiter, Wellington, and Boynton Beach. Because I operate hands-on and personally visit every property, I limit my geographic scope to areas I can serve exceptionally well.
How long does it take to sell a commercial property in Palm Beach County?
With proper pricing and aggressive marketing, well-positioned retail and industrial properties typically sell within 120-180 days. However, properties with challenges (unusual layouts, deferred maintenance, difficult zoning) may take longer. During our initial consultation, I'll give you a realistic timeline based on your specific property and current market conditions.
How is commercial real estate different from residential real estate?
Commercial transactions are significantly more complex than residential. Key differences include: attorney review of contracts is standard, environmental assessments (Phase I ESA) are often required, financing is more complicated with stricter lender requirements, due diligence periods are longer, lease structures and tenant responsibilities vary widely, and zoning/use restrictions are more complex. This is why working with an experienced commercial agent matters, mistakes are expensive.
Can you help me find off-market properties in Palm Beach County?
Yes. Through relationships with other brokers, property owners, and market knowledge, I often know about properties before they're publicly listed. However, I also show you everything that's on-market. Unlike larger firms that push their in-house inventory, I show you all available options so you can make an informed decision.
What if I'm not sure whether to buy or lease commercial space for my business?
This is one of the most important strategic decisions you'll make. During our consultation, we'll analyze both options based on your financial position, business growth plans, capital availability, and long-term goals. Buying builds equity and provides stability but requires significant capital. Leasing preserves capital and provides flexibility but builds no equity. There's no universal right answer—it depends on your specific situation.
Do you work with first-time commercial real estate investors?
Absolutely. While I've worked with institutional investors and family offices, my passion is helping individual owners and first-time commercial investors who need guidance. Commercial real estate can be intimidating if you've only invested in residential properties. I help you understand how to analyze deals, what questions to ask, and how to avoid costly mistakes.
