Testimonials
what our clients are saying about their BEI experience:

I worked for the St. Charles Chamber of Commerce for a number of years and our office was in a downtown St. Charles building owned by BEI Properties. We had a great experience, the staff was extremely professional and helpful. BEI Properties is very community oriented company they would sponsor events and help support their tenants any way they could!

Amanda Stephens

As a growing 501(c)3 charity, we needed a space customized to our needs. This included not only a loading dock, but proximity to my home and the ability to grow in space without having to leave the physical location. This amazing team came through and has continued to come through year in and year out. Even as we grew, and we needed more customized space, the team was incredibly accommodating. Maintenance issue, no concerns they were there immediately. Hats off to the management and the incredible talented group of people there.

Comic Books For Kids!

Highly recommend!  BEI played a pivotal role in helping our startup business get off the ground and provided support as we grew into a larger space.  I’ve also turned to their leadership for business guidance which has been invaluable for our success.  Additionally, BEI manages a small apartment building for us, offering 24/7 on-call services for our tenants with efficiency and kindness.  They’ve made owning a rental property stress-free.  After 8 years of working with them, the team at BEI is not only professional but also some of the kindest, most wonderful people you’ll meet.

We have been with BEI since 2019.  The partnership is exceptional.  Staff at all levels are extremely professional and personable.  When the time came to expand in 2022, there was no question we were in good hands.

Red Hive Market

As a special education administrator, I worked closely with BEI and their director of property management, Wendy Franco.  We rent several spaces from them to house our school program.  Wendy has bent over backwards to help us make the space functional for our students and staff.  BEI is a community focused company that treats their tenants well and is efficient with their processes.  We will continue to look to them to support our ever evolving needs with securing safe and appropriate spaces for our programming.

Brad Schreiner of BEI is one of the best.  He knows the market inside and out, and he is honest and treats his clients the way you would hope.  I highly recommend Brad if you need to buy, sell or lease commercial space.
