Welcome to the Shears Companies
Founded in Houston, Texas in 1978, the Shears Companies specialize in commercial real estate developments and investments that encompass the retail, medical, professional and office sectors.

We are a privately owned, family business that has built a solid reputation for successful projects throughout Texas and neighboring

states. Our continual expansion into other markets is based on in- depth research careful planning, attention to detail, and strong execution.

Unlike many developers, the Shears Companies are in a strong financial position. We are well capitalized and provide a substantial share of the investment capital for most of our projects.To top of page

 

A History of Solid Investments
From the real estate collapse of the 80's to the recovery of the 90's, our methods have followed the same fundamental, conservative path, allowing us to take advantage of the market conditions and to continue to make prudent and sound investments. Whether our real estate venture involves minor refurbishing, renovation of a building, or beginning-to-end development, we take the same judicious approach.To top of page

 

Client Satisfaction
Shears owned properties are always impeccably maintained and managed by a team of experienced professionals. Our clients, associates and tenants are treated with the utmost respect and know that we will always deal with them in a professional manner. These

factors contribute to the Shears Companies reputation of satisfying their clients.To top of page

 

Staying Involved from Start to Finish
Our senior management team takes a hands-on approach to every one of our projects, overseeing all phases of initial property analysis, planning, development, construction, leasing, and ongoing property management. Our continuous involvement gives us the ability to act quickly when new opportunities present themselves and keeps key decision-makers involved in every step of the way.To top of page

 

A Strategy of Long-term Ownership
Our long-term philosophy is to own and operate, not to develop and sell. Over ninety percent of the properties that we have developed are still owned by the Shears Companies.

We are currently consolidating groups of properties for simultaneous development across the southern United States and have implemented an aggressive plan for expansion in the major U.S. markets. By concentrating on key retail properties in growing areas, we are custom tailoring our current and future projects to meet the expressed needs of our tenants while continuing to own and operate the properties.To top of page

 

Taking Advantage of the Latest Technology
We welcome advancements in research, marketing techniques, and communications technologies, always striving to make the most of state-of-the-art technology to increase our responsiveness, maximize access to information, and provide accurate data for risk analysis.To top of page
