Mohr Partners Marks Four Decades of Occupier-Only Real Estate Strategy
Founded in 1986 during the volatile Texas real estate downturn, Dallas-based Mohr Partners is celebrating 40 years of operation. The firm remains a rare entity in the commercial brokerage sector by maintaining an exclusive occupier-only mandate, intentionally avoiding landlord representation to bypass the conflicts of interest common in dual-agency transactions.

Bob Mohr launched the firm with the goal of providing conflict-free advisory services, a mission that has persisted through numerous industry mergers and acquisitions. In 2017, the company underwent a significant transition when Chairman and CEO Robert Shibuya led a management buyout alongside key principals Eric Beichler, Stephen Hemphill, and Rob Pipkin. This leadership team, later bolstered by COO Michele Shibuya and CFO Sohail Hamirani, has doubled down on the firm’s original commitment to representing tenants exclusively.
As the company enters its fifth decade, its growth trajectory remains aggressive. Over the past 18 months, Mohr Partners has expanded its physical footprint with new or enlarged offices in Seattle, Detroit, Phoenix, Cleveland, Minneapolis, and its home base of Dallas. The firm is now pivoting toward integrating artificial intelligence and advanced data analytics into its service model. According to Robert Shibuya, the goal is to enhance their high-touch advisory services by leveraging granular data on labor, logistics, and economic incentives to better serve global corporate clients.
