The Firm - DTSpade Specialized Commercial Real Estate

THE DTSPADE DIFFERENCE

OUR MISSION

DTSpade is a specialized commercial real estate firm providing excellent brokerage services to clients, and a place where Partners strive to restore the perfection of Creation.

Vigorous Representation
Clients make DTSpade successful, and providing them an aggressive representation of their interests is the best way to guarantee we get to stick around for another year.

It may go without saying, but we work to understand the decision a Client is going to make better than they do and anticipate the options before they appear.

We do this by seeking excellence in our craft and understanding deeply their business, industry, and goals.
Growth Mindset
With the skills and gifts each Partner possesses, we work to build upon them through continuing education, SIOR designation (for Agents) and a focus on doing the same task better each time. Our focus on specific practices and sectors encourages our staff to systematize processes and build models that we can carry forward to the next transaction.
Channel Selection
By “staying within our lane” we pre-select the transactions that we would like to represent and by sowing into those channels, we are an unbeatable competitor. Understanding your needs, building a business around a single decision you have to make, and practicing that over and over again gives us success. And success always looks a lot like hard work.

Robust Platform
As a byproduct of our focus on specific channels, we have the luxury of building custom solutions, resources, and financial models around each of our areas of focus.

Imagine if years before you ever realized that you needed to make a decision, a firm had been practicing and learning and building an entire organization around helping you make it excellently. That’s us. Welcome. We’re glad you came.
Organizational Orientation
Most brokerage firms are built around the needs of Brokers and Agents—the revenue producing staff. But if we are in the business of anticipating our Clients’ needs and choices, then we should be able to apply that same strategy to anticipate the needs of our internal staff needs and choices.

In other words, our firm is built around a proven and refined process. Not a single individual.

Our orientation toward the ones who are typically seen as the least in other organizations gives our Brokers and Agents the thing that may not yet know they will want—to have made a difference in the life of another.
Community Mission
DTSpade helps companies bring jobs, hope, restoration, and community into the world.

When we focus our attention on helping those companies make one decision excellently, we empower our Clients to hire, grow, and help others. When we connect our employees to that mission and the importance of our role in the community, they come to work knowing that their effort matters.

DTSpade and our employees are proud supporters of the following community organizations:

OUR VALUES

DOES WHAT YOU BELIEVE MATTER? WE THINK IT DOES.

Even in our narrow lane of representing companies in real estate transactions, we want Partners and Clients who believe that we should serve more than ourselves and that our work, when it’s honest and skilled, does more than accomplish a task. It’s serious business to us, so we look back at these Core Values often when we come to some of life’s inevitable stickiness.

BROKENNESS + WORK = HOMECOMING
Every person has a role and unmerited gifts that are no more honorable than those of another. But we each bear a responsibility to use our role and gifts in restoring and creating our world. For our part, that begins with an excellent effort.
SERVICE = HONOR
Everything flows from trust. It is an honor to serve our Clients and their trust in us requires honor in response.
PAIN OF REGRET > __________
We have the hard conversations. We take the hard path. We climb the taller mountain not because it’s hard. We do it because it is how we would want to be treated and regret is harder.
GROWTH^3
Success (whether it’s educational, personal, a neighbors’, industry or financial) has an exponential effect when we orient it toward community.

(I + MY NEIGHBOR) / LOVE
In business, it is easy to love, cherish and take care of ourselves. But we divide that equation to include our neighbor. Whether that is a Client, our Clients’ clients, their employees, a competitor, colleague or a neighborhood, our equation and service will always include an appropriate measure of love for our neighbor.
YET I > BUT THEY
Our conduct is driven by our code to love our neighbor and never dependent on how we are treated.
OUR VISION < TRUE VALUE
Our vision of our work / of others will always be less than its/their full excellence. Even with a glimmer of truth, we will never comprehend the reconciliation brought about by doing excellent work or the complete excellence of another.
+ CHOOSE FUN
When faced with a decision where the pluses offset the minuses, we’re going to choose fun. Every time. We’ll choose fun.
