HOUSTON — Boyd Commercial/CORFAC International has arranged several real estate transactions for The Detering Co., including the relocation of the firm’s offices. The Detering Co. has relocated from Washington Avenue to a new, 107,000-square-foot facility located at 6800 Helmers St.
The property is situated on a 19-acre site located near Loop 610 North in Houston. J. Michael Boyd of Boyd Commercial LLC/CORFAC International represented The Detering Co. in the move and several other deals, which took over two years to orchestrate. The transactions included the sale of three parcels of land, the purchase of two parcels of land and a build-to-suit of an office and warehouse facility.
The Detering Co., a building materials supply company, formerly occupied more than five acres and 70,000 square feet at its former headquarters located at 3028 Washington Ave. Detering’s new headquarters fronts Irvington and Bennington Streets as well as Helmers.
The property includes a 16-acre site acquired from Quasar Land Ltd., and a three-acre site acquired from Irvington Holdings LLC. A new 107,000-square-foot built to-suit facility was recently completed and opened at the company’s new headquarters.
Detering demolished a building on the property it acquired to make room for the new building. In addition, Detering is renovating a 25,000-square-foot building on the property that it plans to occupy.
