Real Estate Experts. Deal Makers. Trusted Partners.

The Retail Companies is a full-service commercial real estate firm built on speed, efficiency, and relationships. Our goal is to make the process of transacting real estate as seamless as possible, guiding our clients confidently from start to finish with confidence and excellence.

We specialize in leasing, brokerage, investment sales, and development across the Southeast. Whether launching a national brand into a new market, repositioning a legacy asset, or navigating a complex transaction, we bring strategic insight, urgency, and a relentless focus on execution.

Real estate deals are rarely simple— tangled leases, complicated restrictions, shifting markets. We thrive in that complexity. Through deep market knowledge, creative deal structuring, and a collaborative approach, we uncover solutions others miss.

We’re dealmakers at heart, navigating a diverse range of asset classes with hands-on experience and strategic creativity. We believe great projects are built by good people. When deals get tough and timelines shift, having honest, committed partners makes all the difference. Working together, we always find a way to get it done and deliver results.

Headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, our team operates throughout the Southeast. We don’t try to be everything to everyone, and that clarity sharpens our insights, drives better outcomes, and helps us move fast when it matters most.
