Info

Since its inception, ProVenture has consistently delivered client focused solutions by combining national resources with local expertise. The firm was founded in 1997, when Randy Wolcott, an 11 year veteran of CB Richard Ellis, decided to start his own firm: Industrial Real Estate Services. Seizing the opportunity to partner with a national company, in 1998 Industrial Real Estate Services formed a strategic alliance with its then-largest client, Ozburn-Hessey Logistics (OHL), a 51-year old logistics company based in Nashville, Tennessee. Along with the new partnership came many other changes, including a new name - ProVenture - and a diversified offering of services. Clients that once turned to ProVenture for their industrial real estate needs could now count on the firm for office and retail services as well. With these changes came steady growth, and in 2002, the firm acquired the Nashville office of Dallas-based Trammell Crow Company. Today the company is co-managed by Doug McDowell, former Managing Director for CB Richard Ellis in Nashville, and Rick Helton, former Area Director for Trammell Crow Company in Nashville. By combining the recognized experience and background of our associates with the resources available through OHL, ProVenture is able to bring a national approach to real estate assignments while serving its customers with the nimble responsiveness of a boutique firm. As much as ProVenture has grown over the years, we have not wavered from our commitment to delivering real estate solutions tailored to the needs of our clients.
