Commercial real estate broker starts his own business
Ted
Klumb, a commercial real estate broker at
Equity Commercial Real Estate LLC, recently launched his
own business, Ted Klumb Owner's Representative LLC.
Despite starting the new business, Klumb is still working at Equity
Commercial.
His Menomonee Falls-based business will provide turnkey services to
financial institutions for their non-performing commercial and
residential real estate. Those services include simple board ups,
repairs, cosmetic improvements, and property management while getting
the properties on the market and sold quickly.
Klumb said his objective is to provide a financial institution with a
single source, low cost vendor to preserve the value of their
non-performing real estate while selling it as rapidly as possible. The
company aims to be a single source resource for financial institutions
of any size, to reduce their losses on foreclosed, distressed, real
estate owned, or at risk property. The company provides services to
analyze the property, list the property for sale, preserve the value of
the property and perform simple repairs up to major construction
completion.
We want to give banks and credit unions more time to generate
business and reduce or eliminate their duties as property caretakers,
Klumb said. They have told us they want to concentrate on generating
new business instead of fixing old business. While discussing the
business model with my business advisors, we all thought there must be a
million people in the market doing this right now. Through our due
diligence, we discovered that few, if any, offered turnkey solutions to
financial institutions and fewer were locally based.
