Rick Locchead

Rick’s career in retail commercial real estate got its start as an Architectural Designer in the year 2003 at JPRA Architects, one of the country's top retail architectural firms. In 2005, having caught the real estate itch, Rick became the Design Manager at Premier Properties USA, Inc, which provided a vast amount of experience in all aspects of leasing, property management, construction, and development. At Premier, Rick oversaw the design process for the company’s complete portfolio of approximately six million square feet of retail real estate either existing or in different stages of development and construction throughout the country. In 2008, as a victim of our great recession, Rick teamed up with some partners to help build Modis Architects and together they turned a small 5 person firm into a 25+ employee “boutique” design firm. Still having the itch for real estate, in 2016, Rick moved back onto the retail commercial real estate side of the industry by joining Beck Partners and working with national, local, and regional clients in sales and leasing. Accumulated experience allows Rick to uniquely understand both the landlord/owner and the tenant/buyer side of each deal. Rick holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Architecture from Lawrence Technological University in Southfield, MI and is a licensed Real Estate Sales Associate in Florida. He holds the designation of LEED BD+C from the U.S. Green Building Council and is a member of the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC). Rick and his wife Jessica reside in Pensacola, FL.
