HOUSTON—A strong property mix within the Westchase, Energy Corridor and Katy Freeway provides the backdrop for a portfolio owned by Dornin Investment Group. The Dornin Houston portfolio includes Columbia Centre at 11011 Richmond Ave., 1250 Woodbranch Park Dr., 11931 Wickchester Lane, Kirkwood Atrium Office Park at 11777 Katy Freeway and Ten Plaza West at 15915 Katy Freeway.

The investment group has retained The Beck Group as its exclusive leasing agent for the five-property portfolio. Dornin has also engaged ManagerFirm, an affiliate of The Beck Group, for property management services of the portfolio.

Derek Beck, president of The Beck Group, is the broker overseeing leasing and also the chief operating officer of ManagerFirm. ManagerFirm is owned and founded by Alejandro Haiek. Haiek will be senior property manager of the portfolio and Melissa Horn will be property manager.

“These properties are well positioned as strong assets in the Westchase, Energy Corridor and Katy Freeway submarkets of West Houston,” said Beck.

The Beck Group has aligned with ManagerFirm for property management services and Milestone Project Management for construction management services. Scott LaTulipe is president and founder of Milestone Project Management. The three firms together offer investors and users a complete package of services. Acquisition/disposition, property or facility management, and construction or project management are offered through this team.

“The bigger story is really the team we put together for property management and leasing,” Beck tells GlobeSt.com. “Buildings and portfolios of this size are really overcharged and underserved by the big firms. ManagerFirm and Beck Group are able to be ambassadors of the landlord and be like an extension of their business, almost in house.”

The Beck Group specializes in providing project leasing, tenant representation, disposition, development, consulting and management services to owners and tenants throughout the United States. Its portfolio of managed and owned properties includes the retail, office and industrial sectors.

ManagerFirm Inc. is based in Houston and specializes in providing professional management services to owners of commercial real estate and to board of directors of owners' associations, with particular emphasis on deed restrictions. ManagerFirm is an active member of Community Association Institute and Institute of Real Estate Management in California and Texas.

Milestone Project Management is a full-service project management firm providing owners representation and advocacy to corporate, healthcare and industrial clients. The firm was founded in 2008 and has grown to three regional offices in Houston, Austin, TX and Denver.

“These properties are well positioned as strong assets in the Westchase, Energy Corridor and Katy Freeway submarkets of West Houston,” said Beck.
