Adam Keith

Dallas Market Manager

Bisnow

Born and raised in South East London, Adam has always been a ken sportsman; representing his high school in Soccer, Rugby and Cricket. He started his working life as a Police Constable in Central London and then moved on to becoming a “Mens Grooming Expert” (which led to him appearing on The Times, The Telegraph, The Independent & GQ). This career path bought Adam to Dallas, Texas where he met his wife and decided to settle down. In Texas, Adam chose to start over or “re-tool”, and pursued a Management Degree at SMU. Once his studies were complete, Adam moved into sales of HVAC where he touched many commercial construction projects. Adam loves the thrill of new challenges, and meeting new people and can't wait to start his career with Bisnow in Dallas.

  2. If any investors, developers are out looking for capital right now, what do they need to know about the changing nature of underwriting or the current lending environment?

  3. Are there any CRE asset classes where you continue to see a solid number of sales and acquisitions?

  4. What is the future for DFW and how do we compare to other primary markets post Corona?

  5. What capital providers stand to benefit in this environment and who has the most flexibility to lend, if anyone?
