Gene J. Livens
I’m an expert Real Estate Broker who specializes in Churches, Schools and Non-Profits in the Dallas/Fort Worth real estate area. Since 2001, I’ve been helping my clients buy, sell and rent properties and manage every aspect of the real estate process.
​
I help groups evaluate their options in their decision-making process, and often bring an option to the table that they’ve never even thought of and expertise that they don’t have.
​
Personally, I’ve brokered 105 “special purpose” properties in the past 25 years. I previously was a full-time appraiser, currently, I complete BPO – Broker Price Opinions, which can be a great tool when pricing a property. I may even assist an owner by bringing a tenant to a property if desired.
I had received the Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM) designation by the CCIM Institute, which is one of the leading commercial real estate associations in the world. I was also a State License General Appraiser for numerous years. I had received the coveted MAI designation, which I obtained through the Appraisal Institute. This designation signifies that an appraiser has met rigorous educational, experience, and ethical standards, demonstrating expertise in commercial property valuation and analysis. I am now a retired, non-practicing MAI.
I am a licensed broker and a member of the Texas Association of Realtors. Since I’m a realtor, I have standards that others don’t uphold, and an abundance of market data available at my fingertips.
