KE Andrews

What KE Andrews does

KE Andrews is a state and local tax consulting firm founded in 1978 and headquartered near Dallas, Texas. The firm specializes in property tax consulting, valuation, credits and incentives, and related advisory services for enterprise clients in commercial real estate — including multi-family, office, retail, industrial, hospitality, healthcare, build-to-rent, and data centers — and across the energy value chain (upstream, midstream, and renewables). With more than 200 professionals and offices in Texas, Georgia, Colorado, and other locations, KE Andrews reports that it manages or represents property portfolios exceeding $205 billion in assessed value, serving as an outsourced partner for tax compliance, appeals, litigation, severance tax, cost segregation, and site selection engagements.

KE Andrews generates revenue primarily through custom, quote-based professional services engagements delivered under multi-year contracts with enterprise clients. In 2022 the firm executed a strategic pivot toward technology-enabled services, acquiring Third Corner (a SaaS company serving the energy industry, which became the unifyi sub-brand) and EDOiQ. These transactions added a proprietary software portfolio — EDOiQ, UnifyiOne (described as AI-powered, integrating Third Corner's Origo product for machine learning and data aggregation), KEA.Pa (check writing), and a Client Dashboard — introducing a recurring subscription revenue layer alongside the traditional professional services model. Distribution is consultative and direct, supported by content marketing, LinkedIn presence, and thought leadership in industry publications.

The firm is privately held with no disclosed parent, venture, or private equity ownership. Leadership tenure averages 25 years, and senior hires have included professionals with Big Four accounting backgrounds (e.g., Jason Larkin as Executive Vice President). KE Andrews has secured precedent-setting outcomes such as a 35% assessed-value reduction upheld by the West Virginia Intermediate Court of Appeals for natural gas liquids pipelines, and was recognized as a Top Workplace D-FW 2025 (ranked 13th for midsize companies) by The Dallas Morning News.
