HOUSTON—While COVID has done a number on metro office leasing, some properties continue to attract high-level tenants. Beltway 8 is one such asset, with a desirable location and institutional-level management by Denver-based EverWest Real Estate Investors.

"The pandemic has had a notable impact on leasing volume in metro Houston, keeping many office users on the sidelines as they wait to make any long-term real estate decisions," said Della Wegman, EverWest managing director.

With this new lease, Sourcepoint Inc. commits to 34,852 square feet, bringing the EverWest property to 100% occupied. Sourcepoint, a provider of technology-based solutions to the US mortgage industry, will use the space for mortgage underwriting, processing and closings. The company, which is already located in Houston, is scheduled to move to the building at 8101 W. Sam Houston Parkway S in late 2020. The new space will house its current Houston operations and provide room for expansion.
