Scout Realty Group

What Scout Realty Group does

Scout Realty Group is a privately-held commercial real estate brokerage and development firm headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, founded in December 2018 by three principals — Adam Glosier, Jared Hancock, and Chris Zoellner — who collectively bring more than seven decades of combined industry experience. The firm operates four core service lines: tenant representation (multi-site retail rollouts and market penetration), landlord representation (leasing and asset value maximization), development services (ground-up and redevelopment project navigation across entitlements, construction, and risk management), and investment services (acquisition and divestiture analysis). Its customer base is concentrated in enterprise national retailers and institutional property owners, with quantified track records including 40+ Starbucks transactions, 30+ CVS transactions, and 25+ Qdoba transactions, plus shopping center development work spanning 38 states.

The business model is commission-based, with transaction fees negotiated per deal and pricing not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales — direct, relationship-driven engagement with national retail, healthcare, hospitality, and institutional real estate clients — supported by LinkedIn, Facebook, and a website property search tool. Underlying technology is a conventional CRE brokerage platform with market analysis and transaction management capabilities; the firm lists no proprietary technology, AI features, apps, APIs, or integrations. Operations are concentrated in the St. Louis metro and broader Midwest region, with deal activity extending nationally through enterprise tenant mandates. Ownership is concentrated in the three founding partners, with no disclosed external investment, parent company, or subsidiaries.
