Houston, Texas-based real estate advisory and governmental affairs firm that supports market and site strategies, especially those requiring public-private partnerships or co-investment through economic development initiatives, for both for-profit and nonprofit clients. Success stories have included creating opportunities for two grocers, H-E-B and an independent operator, Pyburn's, to serve families living in food deserts.

Individually, Waterman Steele Real Estate Advisors serve as supporting advocates for non-profits such as the American Heart Association and provide guidance to several Texas municipalities as to their HFFI policies and programs. Outside of that, we are most often engaged on behalf of grocers or property owners to identify paths to bridge economic gaps in pro formas and funding to facilitate the opening of grocery stores in food deserts.
