ECR is proud to announce its new maxim: Built on Relationships. As the firm approaches 17 years in business, the phrase reflects what has defined ECR from the start.
ECR was founded as one of Austin’s only full-service, third-party commercial real estate firms, offering brokerage, property management, construction management, and investment services under one roof. That model has always been built on a simple premise: that clients are best served by a team that knows them well and stays with them long-term.
In commercial real estate, the relationship between a firm and its clients can easily become transactional. A deal closes, and both parties move on. ECR has worked to build something different.
When a client engages ECR for leasing and later returns for property management or a construction project, they are not starting over. ECR already knows the building, the goals, and the history. That continuity is by design, and it is what the full-service model is built for.
ECR has operated in Austin for nearly two decades, through multiple market cycles and significant growth in the local commercial real estate landscape. Our clients are Austin businesses, landlords, and investors, many of whom we have worked with for years. That longevity shapes how we approach every engagement.
As we near 17 years at ECR we have taken time to reflect on who we are. With being unique in the marketplace of truly being one of the only full-service third-party commercial real estate service firms in Austin, we have had the fortune of building ECR upon relationships. We recognize it is as both as simple and important as this – building upon relationships. We honor this and our valued clients with our new maxim “Built on Relationships.”
As ECR enters its 17th year, “Built on Relationships” reflects what has guided this firm since the beginning. It is a recognition of the clients who have trusted us with their properties, their portfolios, and their businesses over the years, and a commitment to continuing to earn that trust going forward.
