Founded in 1992 in Arizona, De Rito Partners has grown into a diversified commercial real-estate firm with a particular strength in retail-oriented landlord and tenant representation. derito.com+2LoopNet+2

Broker / Tenant & Landlord Representation Services

The firm offers both landlord representation (helping property owners market and lease their retail assets) and tenant representation (helping national, regional and local retailers find and secure space).

At one point the company stated it “currently represents more than 65 retail shopping centers and more than 35 national and local retailers.” StartUs+2Rose Law Group Reporter+2

On another recent measure they claim representation of “over 180 shopping centers” and “60+ national & local retailers.” srpmic-nsn.gov+1

Their role often includes site-selection advice, lease negotiation, market research, and strategic brokerage solutions tailored to both property owners and tenants. StartUs+1

Market Recognition

De Rito Partners has been recognized by readers of the publication Ranking Arizona (in their “Best of Arizona Business” survey) as the #1 retail brokerage firm in Arizona, for at least three consecutive years. StartUs+1

They are also the exclusive Arizona affiliate/member of the Retail Brokers Network, a national network comprised of top-tier retail brokerage firms across the U.S. StartUs+1

Integrated Platform & Capabilities

De Rito Partners is not simply a brokerage shop. Their platform is structured around multiple complementary business units, enabling a full lifecycle of retail real-estate services:

Development / Redevelopment: Through entities such as De Rito Partners Development, Inc., the firm engages in the acquisition, redevelopment and ground-up creation of retail, mixed-use and automotive dealership properties. For example, they have developed dozens of retail/auto-oriented assets totaling millions of square feet. LoopNet+2srpmic-nsn.gov+2

Property Management: Their property-management arm serves retail portfolios (owning or third-party) focused on asset enhancement, tenant retention and operational oversight. srpmic-nsn.gov+1

Investment & Land Development: They also invest in value-added retail properties and ground-up neighborhood/grocery-anchored centers via separate entities within the group. srpmic-nsn.gov+1

Key Metrics & Market Footprint

Their development wing has developed more than 5 million square feet of retail and automotive properties in the Phoenix/Greater Phoenix market. srpmic-nsn.gov+1

Their brokerage arm has exclusive listings or client representation across hundreds of shopping centers and large retail portfolios in Arizona. www.slideshare.net

Their strong regional focus is the Phoenix metropolitan area and greater Arizona region, though their participation in the Retail Brokers Network gives them access to national-level tenant‐ and site- selection tasks.

Why this is meaningful for clients

Landlords/owners benefit from a firm with deep retail-market insight, strong tenant-representation capabilities (which helps attract quality brands), and an integrated platform (so they can handle leasing, redevelopment and management in-house).

Retailers/tenants gain access to a firm skilled in site-selection and lease negotiation, backed by local market intelligence and national network reach via their network membership.

The firm’s repeated industry recognition indicates a track record and reputation in the Arizona retail real-estate space, which helps with credibility when negotiating deals.

Strategic Differentiators

Their exclusive membership in a national retail-brokerage network gives them scale and market‐reach beyond just the local Arizona market.

Their multi‐entity structure allows flexibility to serve various client needs—from new center development, to repositioning existing centers, to leasing and tenant procurement.

Their dual strength in both landlord- and tenant-representation ensures they see both sides of deals, which can help in structuring solutions that work for both property owners and retailers.

Their long history (since 1992) means they bring institutional memory, established relationships, and market-data continuity.
