Dixon Commercial Real Estate

What Dixon Commercial Real Estate does

Dixon Commercial Real Estate, Inc. is a privately held, boutique commercial real estate firm founded in 1997 by Thomas Dixon in Miami, Florida (originally operating as Thomas J. Dixon Inc.). The company serves South Florida — principally Miami-Dade County — through a dual-service model. Its brokerage line provides commercial property buying, selling, leasing, and creative re-use advisory for commercial and industrial properties, with revenue earned on commission basis tied to transactions. Its tax-appeal line represents property owners in real estate tax assessment disputes under a contingency-fee structure where fees are calculated as a percentage of the tax savings achieved, and the firm claims 20+ years protecting clients from overpaying on real estate taxes (filing 1,875 petitions for the 2010 tax year and approximately 500 cases preemptively filed for 2017 due to Hurricane Irma).

The firm has no proprietary technology platform and operates with a small team centered on founder Thomas Dixon (MAI designation, University of Florida degrees in Building Construction and Real Estate, 50+ years Miami residency, former 15-year commercial appraiser with Dixon and Friedman) and his son Andrew Dixon, who co-authors the firm's market intelligence. Differentiators are relationship- and expertise-driven rather than technology-driven: Thomas Dixon's local network and institutional roles (2004 Chairman of the Realtor Association of Greater Miami and the Beaches, Director Emeritus of CIASF, IADC 2001 Broker of the Year, Miami Today 2008 Best of Miami) anchor client acquisition and deal flow.

Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, with no intermediary channels; outreach runs through the founder's personal phone line ((305) 443-4966) and email. Marketing is multi-channel but modest in scale: an "Email of the Week" newsletter, the collaborative Dixon-Magenheimer-Sisler (DMS) Report, CIASF Industrial Market Reports published since 1997, plus X and Facebook pages. Revenue mechanics combine transaction commissions on brokerage deals with outcome-based contingency fees on tax appeals, both sourced from a horizontally segmented base of South Florida commercial property owners and investors seeking acquisition, disposition, leasing, or property-tax relief services.
