Brown Commercial completes four Chicago industrial deals

March 20, 2026 — Brown Commercial Group negotiated four Chicago industrial deals, helping to fill spaces for private landlords. In a short period of time, the spaces were filled to growing small businesses looking to expand their industrial footprints. Broker Luke Dummitt represented both landlord and tenant in two transactions at 195 Kendall Point Drive in Oswego, IL.

Dummitt also represented the landlord in leasing space at 1585 Beverly Court in Aurora, IL to a growing local business. In the final transaction, Dummitt represented a private investor in leasing space at 2760 Beverly Drive in Aurora, IL to a private business. Brown Commercial Vice President Jim Pietrarosso represented the tenant in the transaction.

“Chicago’s industries market continues to attract small to mid-sized business looking to expand their operations in strategic suburban locations,” said Dummitt. “These transactions illustrate the steady demand we are seeing in Chicago’s suburban industrial market.”
