HOUSTON—Rex Rogers, a veteran of the Houston real estate scene for 36 years, has died.
“Rex was a really special person,” David L. Cook, executive vice president of Cushman & Wakefield, told GlobeSt.com. “He headed our corporate real estate services activities for 17 years. In addition to his professionalism and real estate expertise, he had an exceptional way of interfacing with our clients. Everyone who worked with him loved him.”
Rogers managed the corporate real estate assets for a variety of clients, including corporations, financial institutions, trusts and pension funds, family-controlled companies and private investors. Most recently, he oversaw the transaction management and day-to-day administration of clients that included Service Corporation International (SCI), Shell Oil Co. and Rental Services Corp. Over the past nine years, Rex and his account team, led by Cook and Jeff Peden, were involved in more than 700 transactions in excess of $360 million.
Prior to joining C&W, Rex was a senior broker for The Horne Co., where he represented firms in site and facility selection, acquisition and disposition. He analyzed markets and developed strategies for clients in land, office, retail and industrial developments, including the 40-project, 3-million-square-foot Hines industrial property portfolio. He also disposed of all industrial real estate holdings in Texas, totaling 475,000 square feet, for Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association.
Rogers was vice president and manager of Rubloff Inc., where he was responsible for the financial performance of its industrial properties group. He also managed the marketing effort, including financial analysis, proposal preparation and contract negotiation for Hines, the nation's largest investment builder. He was also employed by Henry S.
