About Us

A History of Creating Opportunities

Norris, Beggs & Simpson Companies, LLC has been playing a major role in shaping the landscape of commercial real estate since it was founded April 1, 1932, in Portland, Oregon. Beginning as a property management and brokerage company repairing troubled assets during the Great Depression, our services soon expanded into mortgage lending as loan correspondents for major life insurance companies.

In more recent times, NBS Companies has expanded its geographic footprint and added investment management, consulting and market research divisions. NBS Companies is a firm with a long-standing reputation for honest, lasting and profitable relationships for all parties involved, and we have evolved through steady expansion of services for our clients.

Headquartered in Portland, OR, NBS Companies also has offices in Seattle, WA, New York, NY, San Francisco, CA, San Antonio, Texas and Bend, OR and is the holding company for five wholly-owned subsidiaries each with their own strategic partnerships, designed to serve our clients locally, regionally, and nationally.
