Las Vegas Commercial Real Estate
The Story
I'm the principal of BRAND Real Estate, a Las Vegas commercial real estate brokerage and advisory firm. I started my commercial real estate career at Shea Commercial and have spent more than twenty years building a practice in the Las Vegas market. Before real estate, I spent four years taking more than 30 companies public on the OTC:BB and helping launch startups with a private investment firm. That entrepreneurial background shapes how I think about every client's situation today.
Over that time, I've sold or leased more than $900 million in commercial property across the Las Vegas Valley: owner-user transactions, investment property, tenant and buyer representation, and condo-style commercial projects in office and light industrial. I'm a specialist, not a generalist. My deepest expertise is in owner-user advisory, medical office, light industrial, and commercial real estate marketing.
— Bridget RichardsI hold both the SIOR (Society of Industrial and Office Realtors) and CCIM (Certified Commercial Investment Member) designations, the two most rigorous credentials in commercial brokerage. I'm one of only nine commercial real estate professionals in Southern Nevada to hold both.
AI is a working part of how I run every engagement at BRAND, not as a marketing claim but in practice: market analysis, site selection, deal sourcing, and property marketing. In 2026 alone, I've been the sole facilitator on AI workshops for CREW Las Vegas, CCIM Southern Nevada, and SIOR Southern Nevada, with ongoing AI training delivered to SIOR chapters across the country. It's not a trend I'm observing. It's how we work.
I currently serve as President-Elect of the Southern Nevada SIOR Chapter (2026–2027) and as Chair of the SIOR Independent Broker Group (IBG) Steering Committee. IBG represents 1,400 of SIOR's 3,500 global designees.
— Bridget RichardsBridget began her commercial real estate career at Shea Commercial, a prominent developer of office projects in the Southwest United States. Before commercial real estate, she took 30+ companies public on the OTC:BB and helped launch multiple startups while working with a private investment firm in Las Vegas between 1997 and 2001 — an entrepreneurial background that shapes how she advises clients today.
I'm also an active buyer of Las Vegas commercial development opportunities: land for development, sites with entitlements, value-add repositioning, and off-market situations across the Valley. If you have a deal, send it.
