About Rebecca Zigterman

Rebecca joined ECR as its third team member in 2010 and oversees office project leasing, represents tenants with their site selection, negotiation, and long-term strategy, and provides commercial real estate sales services through client dispositions and acquisitions.  Rebecca has completed over 700 transactions and has been recognized as an Austin Business Journal “Heavy Hitter” multiple years.

Rebecca served on the Board of Directors for the Commercial Brokers Association (CBA) for 3 years working closely with RMHC and Mainspring Schools, and is actively involved with ECR Serves and Gateway Church in Austin.

Before ECR, Rebecca worked at Stanford University in the residential and dining department.

  • 4700 Mueller Blvd (Lease): Three leases totaling over 33,000 SF, resulting in full occupancy within 9 months of being hired
  • 4700 Mueller Blvd (Sale): Sale of this 47,000 SF Class A office property in the trending Mueller district
  • 12710 Research Blvd: Expansion and extension for a 21,200 RSF office tenant
  • Anderson Tower: 75,000 SF office building sale

“Riverside Resources is very pleased with ECR’s efforts and the result at 4700 Mueller. We purchased a vacant building, and shortly after we acquired the building, ECR’s leasing team signed three new leases and helped procure a user to purchase 4700 Mueller, exceeding our expectations. All of this during a global pandemic with uncertainty around the office market. The team’s results at 4700 Mueller provides us with a success story that surpasses this assignment and contributes to the overall strong relationship with ECR.”

Win Smith, Riverside Resources

“ECR successfully solved our leasing requirements for a large, contiguous space with minimal vacancy and downtime, completing the transaction through some complicated challenges. While the building’s dated main entrance, lobby, and corridors were under construction, ECR successfully leased the building by helping prospects envision their future updated workplace environment. The ECR team is hard-working, well-organized, and focused. They diligently communicated with the owners and tenants, providing knowledgeable support.”

Debra Bush, Regency Office Center

“Our decision to hire ECR was based on their interest in our property. Before receiving the leasing assignment, ECR brought several new tenants to our building. We had one empty floor at 7600 Burnet Road, and after 4 months of marketing the property, ECR produced signed leases for this space and others. We find the associates at ECR to be very responsive and pleasant to work with.”

When and why did you begin a career in commercial real estate?

I began my commercial real estate career in 2011. My passion started in 2004 during a business certification program I took through the Leeds School of Business at CU, and I worked for RE/MAX in the greater Boulder area until 2006. After working as a staff member at Stanford University, I decided to pursue my dream of serving clients and their businesses through commercial real estate in Austin, and I moved in 2010. The most rewarding aspect of what I do is serving clients, helping companies achieve their goals, and getting to know some incredible people during the process.

What do you specialize in at ECR?

Advising clients in the Greater Austin market with office leasing and sales services.

What has been your greatest accomplishment during your career?

Being a part of ECR’s growth since 2010 from two people when I joined, to the team it has grown to be, serving its clients at the highest level possible.

What do you enjoy doing outside of the office?

I served for 3 years on the Commercial Brokers Association (CBA) Board of Directors as the liaison to its local charities, RMHC and Mainspring Schools, and on our ECR Serves team.

I enjoy time with family and friends, getting outside, exploring the hill country and new places, sports, serving the community and students, being involved at Gateway Community Church, hearing amazing music, and traveling anywhere with water.

I care a lot about each client and their goals, and I work hard to execute on what matters most to them.
