Founders 3 is Wisconsin’s largest, independently owned, full-service commercial real estate brokerage and management firm, changing the landscape of the local real estate industry in Milwaukee with an unmatched level of local expertise. The commercial real estate firm combines the resources of Commercial Property Associates, Inc., RFP Commercial, Inc., and Siegel-Gallagher Management Co. All three companies have deep local roots with a wealth of experience in the key areas of retail, office, industrial, and investment sales brokerage, along with property management. Founders 3 is the result of three locally based organizations listening to clients’ expressed desire for a locally based full-service organization with the experience that Founders 3 offers. The founders of each organization recognized a tremendous opportunity to come together, combine resources, and bring to market a line of service that is greater than the some of its parts; hence the name, Founders 3. Now with 230 Milwaukee-area employees, the firm will be conducting a search for new headquarters for its merged operations.
