Derrick Schroeder

Twenty one years on the buyer's side of single tenant net lease real estate — nationwide, and always free to the buyer.

FREE Service to the Buyer

Derrick co-founded Solid Investments in 2006 and has spent every year since focused on single tenant NNN real estate — primarily representing private investors, family offices, and 1031 exchange buyers in the acquisition of net lease properties. Many of those same clients return years later as sellers, cycling proceeds into their next 1031 exchange.

That focus has produced 225+ closed transactions and more than $1 billion in career volume, spanning single tenant ground leases to nine-figure industrial portfolios, for clients placing capital in stable, high credit environments nationwide.

Clients return because Derrick stays hands-on from start to finish — guiding buyers through lease and due diligence review alongside legal counsel, coordinating third-party consultants, helping clients evaluate their findings, and leveraging a trusted network of attorneys, lenders, and industry professionals to keep transactions moving toward closing. He also closely tracks interest rates and capital markets — helping clients evaluate pricing, financing, and deal structure based on today’s market conditions rather than where the market was six months ago.

“

Derrick has called Florida home for more than 25 years — the last 14 in Sarasota, where he lives with his wife and 13-year-old son. When he's not closing deals, he's usually coaching his son's flag football team, out on the water, at the beach, or in a hot yoga studio.

Comfortable at Nine Figures

Derrick's deal sheet runs from single tenant ground leases to some of the largest last mile industrial closings in the country — including four Amazon Last Mile logistics facilities totaling more than $189 million in career volume.
