St. Louis.

NAI DESCO was founded in 2000 when a group of experienced brokers partnered with the Schnuck family to launch a new, independent commercial real estate firm rooted in the legacy of DESCO Group. Today, we’re a locally owned leader in the St. Louis region, with offices in Missouri and Illinois, and global reach through our affiliation with NAI Global—the world’s largest network of independent CRE providers. Our name reflects that dual foundation: NAI for New America International, and DESCO for the Schnuck brothers’ development legacy.

Since the year 2000, NAI DESCO has served the St. Louis region with a reputation built on integrity, deep market knowledge, and long-term relationships. Our firm has grown alongside the city, evolving from a local brokerage firm to a full-service commercial real estate provider with a regional presence.

NAI DESCO’s team of more than 20 brokers brings over 400 years of combined experience in commercial real estate. With deep St. Louis market knowledge and the global reach of the NAI network, we deliver strategic, results-driven solutions across all property types.

We provide full-service commercial real estate solutions across office, industrial, retail, land, and medical property types. Whether you need tenant representation, property leasing, investment sales, or consulting, our brokers deliver results tailored to your business goals.

As the St. Louis affiliate of NAI Global, we combine deep market knowledge with access to 300+ offices worldwide. This gives our clients the advantage of local service backed by global strength—whether you’re leasing a single property or managing a national portfolio.
