Newmark announces David Claros has joined the firm as an Executive Managing Director in its Houston office, adding to the firm's growing Land Services team in Texas. In his role, Claros will focus on industrial land and investment sales across Texas metropolitan areas including Houston, Austin-San Antonio and Dallas-Fort Worth. He will report to Ran Holman, Executive Vice President and Texas Market Leader.

"We are thrilled to welcome David to our team as he represents another significant addition to our esteemed Land Services division in Texas," said Holman. "David's deep expertise and impressive track record in industrial land transactions will be invaluable as we continue to grow and enhance our offerings in the region."

Claros brings over a decade of experience spearheading industrial land acquisitions, dispositions and development projects for developers, landowners and investors. In the past five years alone, he has been involved in $500 million worth of industrial land transactions, encompassing more than 1,000 acres across Texas for institutional, corporate and private clients. He joins Newmark following the recent addition of land sales expert Meredith Cullen in Houston.

Prior to joining Newmark, Claros served as a Senior Director at Dosch Marshall Real Estate (DMRE), where he was responsible for developing and growing DMRE's Industrial Land Team in Texas. Previously, he was a Senior Associate at Caldwell Companies, where he specialized in land and industrial buyer-tenant representation, and served as a General Manager for Palm Harbor Homes in Bryan-College Station.

"I was drawn to Newmark's robust full-service platform and exceptional cross-functionality, which allow me to meet clients' varied needs seamlessly," said Claros. "I look forward to collaborating with local land sales experts like Meredith and working across diverse teams, particularly Industrial Capital Markets, to leverage the firm's cross-functional capabilities and drive innovation and growth in the Texas market."
