Donald Teel – Arizona Commercial Real Estate
Donald Teel has nearly 4-decades of history in commercial real estate. Donald Teel has owned and operated successful full-service residential and commercial brokerage firms under well-known brand names such as Prudential and of late, Arizona Commercial, where he was President & CEO until selling in 2014.
In fact, Donald was a part of the first Prudential Real Estate Affiliates in west Phoenix, Arizona in 1990, becoming General Manager in 1991. In 1994 Donald purchased Prudential Client Realty in Prescott, Arizona and merged the firm with Prudential Excel Realty in Flagstaff. Eventually, in 1997, he purchased Prudential Foothills Real Estate in Sedona and consolidated the multi-city operation under that name.
In 2005 Donald sold his firm which had grown into 14 central and northern Arizona markets.
After a hiatus from the industry, Donald was recruited by Arizona Commercial, becoming its president and CEO. In 2010 Donald was asked by the Yavapai Prescott Indian Tribe (“YPIT”) to help it consolidate and manage its commercial real estate which at the time consisted of Sundog Business Park and the Prescott Resort, among other holdings. He negotiated the acquisition of Frontier Village, a 685,000-square-foot retail power center, for YPIT. He hired and directed a staff that included marketing, administration, and accounting before departing in 2014 to return to Arizona Commercial. That same year, Donald co-founded Commercial Properties Northern Arizona with JT Purvis.
Mr. Teel’s experience spans 35+ years and he has amassed an impressive track record in commercial retail, office, and property management. His leasing and sales include some of the market’s more significant commercial assets, including retail shopping centers, medical offices, drive-through restaurants, and industrial, and development projects.
Donald is currently a Senior Sales Associate at Arizona Commercial Real Estate, whose owners Matt and Lacey Fish recently acquired Arizona Commercial Real Estate, making their firm central and northern Arizona’s top full-service commercial brokerage and property management.
Donald Teel is committed to delivering the highest level of commercial real estate investment expertise to each client. Whether you are a first-time investor or a seasoned property owner in need of management, leasing, exchanges, development, or tenant representation he and his team can help.
