The guy who owns the building answers the phone.

Kevin Buxton is an industrial real estate specialist and the Managing Director of Southpaw Capital. He’s spent his career on one product type — the small-bay industrial buildings that Florida’s contractors, shops, and operators actually run their businesses from.

He doesn’t just broker that kind of space. He owns it. This Melbourne building is Kevin’s — which means when you ask about a bay, you’re not reaching a listing agent working for someone else’s landlord. You’re talking to the landlord, and he’s motivated to fill his own building with tenants who’ll stay.

Kevin is a Florida-licensed commercial real estate professional with 30,000+ square feet of industrial transactions closed, including a 30,411 SF small-bay portfolio deal in Orlando. If you follow the industry, you may also know him as a Battle of the Bids winner — a national commercial real estate pitch competition.

His leasing philosophy fits on a napkin: quote straight, move fast, keep good tenants happy. No junk fees, no broker chains, no waiting a week for a callback that should’ve taken an hour.

Tell him what you’re running. If his building fits, he’ll tell you what’s open. If it doesn’t, he’ll tell you that too.
