After more than 53 years in the commercial and industrial real estate business, I am sharing a meaningful update. Waas Realty will be transitioning away from leasing and property management services.
I started this company in 1973 alongside my parents, Max and Barbara Waas. What began as a small, family-run business grew into something far beyond what we could have imagined. Together, we built a company rooted in hard work, integrity, and long-standing relationships across the South Florida real estate community, while also developing and investing in properties along the way.
Over the decades, we have had the privilege of working with incredible tenants, loyal investors, and a brokerage community that has been at the center of so many successful deals. From helping small businesses find their first space to developing and managing properties through every market cycle, it has been a journey I am deeply proud of.
What has meant the most to me are the relationships, many of which span decades and feel more like friendships than business.
While we are closing this chapter, I am not going anywhere. I will continue to focus on investment sales and advisory work and remain active in the market.
On a personal note, this transition will also allow me to spend more time in my most important role, being a grandfather to my four granddaughters.
To everyone who has been part of this journey, thank you. If you have a deal, want to connect, or just catch up, my door and phone are always open.
Here is to the next chapter.
