Bio
Dave Besserer
Principal
Tenant Advisory Services Group
TRANSWESTERN ROLE
Dave Besserer, principal, specializes in tenant representation and brings a broad spectrum of skills to the team at Transwestern. His strength is in providing proactive management of the space procurement process, keeping his clients’ real estate requirements on schedule and within budget. Previous experience in landlord representation gives Dave a well-rounded perspective of landlord negotiation tactics and methods, and he uses this knowledge to his competitive advantage for the clients he represents.
CAREER HIGHLIGHTS
Dave has over thirty years of commercial real estate experience, with his first twelve years on the landlord side of the business, and since 1993 on the tenant representation side. A complete working knowledge of both sides of the space acquisition process provides Dave’s clients with a seasoned professional with “insider knowledge” solely representing their interests.
Prior to Transwestern, in 2006, Dave was instrumental in creating a Tenant Advisory Services Division at Bradford Companies, where he served as executive vice president and managing partner. Experience gained prior to joining Bradford includes developing David McDavid Corporate Services in 2002, a boutique brokerage firm dedicated to “hands-on” personalized service for office space users, and nine years with Fischer & Company, a Dallas-based tenant representation firm. Dave began his brokerage career in 1981 with one of the nation’s largest developers, The Vantage Companies, and was honored as the number one broker for Vantage/Bradford Companies for seven out of twelve years during his tenure there.
