Steven Davis

Managing Partner

Steven Davis founded Retail Investment Group in 1999. The focus of the company is the sale of net-leased investment properties nationwide, most of which are typically freestanding buildings such as restaurants, banks, drug stores, fitness centers, medical facilities, automotive properties, and general retail.

Steven and his team have sold over 90 Denny’s, 40 Hooters, 35 Taco Bells, 20 KFCs, 20 Pizza Huts, 20 Burger Kings, along with Jack in the Box and other national and regional chain properties. They have also closed on transactions with Walgreens, CVS, Bank of America, Chase Bank, LA Fitness, Dollar General, McDonald's, Wendy’s, Arby’s, Popeyes and Advance Auto Parts, to name a few.

Over the past 25 years, Steven has been involved in over 550 transactions totaling over $1 billion in value. These transactions include individual property sales and portfolio transactions, depending on the wants and needs of the client. Investors of these properties include REITs and individual investors. Many of these investors complete 1031 tax-deferred exchanges, where the taxable gain on the sale of a property is deferred by reinvesting the sale proceeds into a like-kind investment within the timeframes established by the IRS. Steven is an expert in this field and specializes in handling these transactions.

Steven grew up on Long Island and moved to Arizona in 1990 to attend Arizona State University, graduating with a degree in Marketing. He lives in Scottsdale with his wife, and they have two daughters who graduated from college. To keep up with his busy life, Steven swims, bikes, lifts weights, and plays pickleball.
