Central Texas · Austin–San Antonio Corridor
Multifamily Acquisitions, Retail & Restaurant Leasing, and Commercial Buyer Representation Across the Austin–San Antonio Corridor.
I represent buyers and tenants — multifamily investors acquiring their next asset, retail and restaurant operators finding the right site, and other commercial buyers and tenants — throughout the corridor, from Austin to San Antonio.
James Chapa, Texas REALTOR®, is a commercial real estate advisor with James Chapa Group, brokered by eXp Realty, licensed since 2005, serving the Austin–San Antonio corridor, Texas.
What I focus on
Three property types. One corridor.
Multifamily investment & acquisition
Buyer representation for multifamily investors — sourcing, underwriting, and closing acquisitions as owners scale from smaller holdings into larger assets.
Retail & restaurant leasing
Tenant and buyer representation for retail and restaurant operators — site selection, lease negotiation, and acquisition guidance as they build out their footprint.
Office & other commercial
Buyer and tenant representation for office space users and other commercial buyers across the corridor.
The corridor
Four market areas. One advisor who knows all of them.
Austin and San Antonio are the primary markets — with Comal County and Hays County connecting the two along the I-35 corridor. Each holds different product, different tenants, and different opportunity. I work the full corridor, not just its two anchor cities. Get in touch today to discuss your needs.
