Originally founded by Walter N. Propps SIOR, CPA, in 1972 as a development and brokerage company, Commercial & Industrial Real Estate, which became Commercial Brokers LLC, began as a two person firm. As demand for specialized properties increased, a construction company was added. This gave Commercial Brokers the ability to build office and warehouse properties and perform most functions in-house. Commercial Brokers represented clients better than other firms by constructing facilities to their exact specifications. After the return of Nick Propps in the late 1990's, the firm expanded further as additional properties were acquired, new team members were hired and the firms capabilites were refocused.
Some of the properties constructed or developed by Commercial Brokers include multi-tenanted flex, office and warehouse buildings, a fully refrigerated warehouse for Kolker Poultry, local headquarters for Orkin Pest Control and a 180,000+ sq. ft. paper warehouse with rail service for Parson's Paper Company. |
The staff is comprised of experienced sales and leasing agents, property and asset management staff, and office personnel to support the operation. Most of our brokers have at least 15 years of experience while some have over 30. The Brokerage Team is comprised of professionals from some of the areas most well know firms including The Chevy Chase Land Company and Shannon & Luchs. Our staff size often changes as projects dictate. To apply for a position, please visit our Career Page.
Our Internet presence obtains outstanding results. As more and more tenants turn to the Internet to locate properties and research markets, we have become a leader in online commercial real estate marketing. Since 1995, we have had one of the most popular local real estate websites in the DC Metropolitan area. Our substantial investment in Internet marketing enables us to reach out to customers across the US and the world 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is one reason Commercial Brokers has been listed as one of the top US domain owners in the country by a Harvard Law School report. A few of our websites include:
RentAWarehouse.com RentABuilding.com LeaseAWarehouse.com BuyABuilding.com BuyAWarehouse.com BuildABuilding.com GetSpaceToday.com SpecialBuildings.com SalesAndLeasing.com
Our Online Listing Database provides excellent exposure for our clients' properties and allows potential tenants to download property information immediately. We can provide floorplans, photos, virtual tours, maps and brochures. We also provide password protected client web pages on the Commercial Brokers Net which allow clients to privately review property information at their convenience.
Our team also has access to mini radio stations that can be installed in a property to provide marketing information. As prospects drive by the location, they see our distinct signage which directs them to tune in and hear about the details of the property. It helps our listings stand out from the competition.

We currently own and manage a wide range of office, medical, warehouse, flex, and retail properties throughout Maryland and the District of Columbia. While our occupancy levels typically remain at record levels close to 100%, we're always looking to purchase additional properties to provide even more great locations. These properties allow us to provide immediate locations for clients that need space quickly.
"Based on the overwhelming demand for our services, we will continue to expand our business to break records in the years ahead. Our clients come back to us year after year. With those types of relationships, we work even harder to help our clients. We excel because we serve a niche market which many mega-companies do not want to serve, or do not serve well. We're faster, more aggressive, and creative; and by watching out for our client's best interests, we consistently rate higher than our competition in satisfaction surveys." --Nick Propps |
