Total Class Solutions is a national class action administrator that specializes predominantly in construction defect issues, although we are currently expanding to other issues during 2012. It is often thought of as an insurance company-related business. It is not. It’s handling class actions and working specifically with both defendant and plaintiff attorneys who are settling or about to settle cases.
The management team of Total Class Solutions has been handling class actions for over 15 years, and has handled over a billion-dollar settlement. We have experience second to none.
We were referred to Reata by the landlord when we were looking at a sublease in this building. The biggest benefit from Reata and working with Bob was we said what we wanted and Bob ran with it and got it done.
One of the solutions that Reata developed for Total Class Solutions was when we right-sized 18 months ago. We were in a space of 5500 square feet. We only needed, we thought, 4400 square feet – but in fact, we squeezed into 3800 square feet because the layout of the space was much more convenient to our business.
We have been in this building since the early 1990s, and what this building atrium has given to us is security, parking, and it also has in-house sandwich shops so you can grab a quick lunch and don’t have to go out. It’s also a very aesthetically-pleasing building. We have enjoyed being here all this time. Even after looking in 2010 for other space, we were convinced that we should stay in this building.
We’ve also expanded by already another 1000 square feet, and recently just reconfigured the office to increase the space and make it more productive.
One of the key things that I found with working with Reata and working with Bob was the level of responsiveness. Once the project was established, Bob was very responsive, very communicative, and got the job done in a timely manner – and also worked with the construction guys as well to get build out done.
I think when you contract with somebody to do this sort of work, you want to have the confidence that they will complete the project timely, and Bob made sure that happened.
I would absolutely recommend Bob and Reata to other clients. In fact, I have done so. I don’t know whether they contacted Bob, but I have mentioned to a number of people who are looking for space, and I will do that again, absolutely.
The name of my blog has changed. It used to be called The REATA BizBlog because that name combined the name of my company with the fact that it's a blog about business. Makes sense. But then I was at a networking function a few months ago and I…
I recently heard Steve Brown, real estate reporter for the Dallas Morning News, speak at Collin County Day. He had some interesting statistics that I thought I should share. 1. DFW created 63, 700 jobs in the last 12 months. An additional 100, 000…
While searching for office space in west Plano on behalf of a software development company, I noticed that rental rates have gone up considerably. Class A office buildings are now quoting rates in the upper half of the $20’s plus electric…
My lovely wife bought me an iPad 2 for my birthday at the end of February. I was so excited and spent the rest of that day playing with it, downloading apps and generally being anti-social notwithstanding the fact that we had a housefull of guests…
Growing companies often face a dilemma when a landlord requires a 3-5 year lease. Lease only the space they need today and risk not having the space they need as they grow. Or lease more space than they need now betting on the growth that then doesn…
Working with an exclusive tenant representative is the best way for commercial office tenants to be assured their company's mission is at the heart of a lease transaction. The best tenant representatives are more than just lease-to-lease brokers,…
The DFW office market is getting really hot as reported by BISNOW's commercial real estate newsletter. In 2011, the DFW market absorbed 2. 4 million square feet (SF) of office space. That's the highest since 2005 and triple 2010's absorption. The…
I am somewhat of contrarian. If everyone agrees on something, I'm usually the one to take the opposing view. If I'm talking to my politically right-wing family, for example, I tend to bait them with the obvious benefits of universal health care,…
