Management Pact Rolling to 780,000 SF

PM Realty vice president Richard Hopwood tells GlobeSt.com that he oversaw the package for two previous employers, but still competed against two other brokerage houses for the contract to a triple net-leased, class A portfolio that includes three call centers. Hopwood explains the contract stayed with HBM Management Inc. in Dallas when he left for Houston-based PM Realty's Dallas/Fort Worth ranks.

"We are still in the takeover process," Hopwood says about a recently awarded contract. He's assembled a six-member team for the management assignment, making plans for an on-site office at AmeriCredit's 470,000-sf, two-building operations center at 4000-01 Embarcadero in Arlington. The buildings sit beside AmeriCredit's headquarters, owned by Los Angeles-based BentleyForbes and managed by Hopwood.

As the keys turn to a package developed since 2001, AmeriCredit has Hopwood looking for a sublease tenant for an 85,000-sf office building at 2310 Valley Square Parkway in Orange Park, FL, and a portion of a 150,000-sf structure at 1975 S. Price Rd. in Chandler, AZ. The package also includes a 76,000-sf office building in Huntersville, NC.
