I’ve known Jeff since he started with The Woodlands Development Company in 1997. Over the years, I’ve watched his progress from an employee to a successful independent business entrepreneur.
Jeff learned the basics in the commercial real estate business as an appraiser followed by his tenure at The Woodlands Development Company, and he parlayed that knowledge and experience into a very successful business on his own. Applying his traits of being hard working, very knowledgeable, and honest, Jeff has grown his business as the markets have grown. Today, he has expanded his employee base and diversified his business to include asset sales, leasing, land sales, property management, and more.
It is always impressive to see someone take the risk of going out on their own, while all the way striving to balance it all as a dedicated family man. In order to do so, he has built and provided excellent leadership to the team at his firm and has given them the autonomy to succeed and contribute to the growth of the business.”

I have known Jeff for several years, throughout my 40 years as an executive professional in the oil and gas industry followed by my current work as a full-time supporter of numerous non-profit charities through board leadership and fundraising.
What I recognize in Jeff is a strong ambition to build his own firm that has successfully garnered the position as the experts in the local commercial real estate marketplace, and he has accomplished that mission solidly. In building his business, he has maintained an ethical protocol as a professional, and has also generously supported many of the local charities and business organizations. Jeff truly embraces the core value of giving back to the community to build a stronger tomorrow for those less fortunate. Moreover, he continues to maintain his status as a respected professional and individual.”

Jeff’s bearing and professionalism speaks volumes which he backs up with action. I have witnessed his work performance for over 20 years and can attest that his standards are of the highest order.”– Tim Welbes

Jeff, I want you to know that tenacious, responsive, patient, professional: are not just adjectives – they are the most descriptive words I can use for your team. Working with an individual is one thing, working with a church group is something else, but you handled our church sale, and now our pursuit of new property, with poise and understanding. While churches provide a refuge for the soul I know they often aren’t the easiest to work with because so many people get involved. I want to thank you and your staff for working so hard to our benefit. I highly recommend your company.”
