Facebook Pixel Tyler Huntington | Pickett Sprouse Commercial Real Estate

If you’ve ever been to a Durham Bulls game, or have lived in Carrboro, Apex, or Raleigh, you’re probably familiar with Tyler’s Taproom, a small local chain of restaurants that is now closed but previously had a presence in all of the Triangle’s coolest locations. Tyler Huntington is that Tyler. After more than 30 years in the restaurant industry and with the experience of founding and owning six successful restaurants, he has turned his attention to helping other business owners find the perfect location to achieve their dreams.

Tyler has a wealth of experience in identifying ideal locations, buying and renovating historic buildings, negotiating leases, and working with conventional lenders, the Small Business Administration, crowd funding, and private lenders. One of his strengths in site selection is being able to envision the potential and best use of a property others might not see. Once the time comes, he also knows how to help sell restaurants and other types of commercial buildings to get the greatest return possible on your investment.

When he’s taking a break from real estate, Tyler spends his spare time with his wife and children, attending Ultimate Frisbee games, woodworking, fly fishing, and cooking.

Reviews

“Tyler's knowledge of the restaurant and brewing industries was a fundamental advantage in securing our location. He's able to work with you to create a comprehensive list of wants/needs and parse through available locations ahead of time, making sure you only see what you need to see. He's also going to go to bat for you to secure a good deal, and he's very well versed in many different areas and neighborhoods, knows the right questions to ask and the big ticket items to check on the property, so assessing locations becomes very easy with him. He won't rest until you find a location that truly fits, either. I regularly recommend him to anyone who asks, and we will absolutely be working with him again in the future.”

“Tyler is an invaluable ally in the search for your next, best place. He took our needs to heart and showed us every potential space until we were leased and satisfied. And then he followed up to make sure all had proceeded as promised.”

Robbie Roberts, Joe Van Gogh, Inc.

“Tyler was always responsive, ethical, patient, and best of all, honest in the arduous process of securing a restaurant lease for us.”

“I have worked with multiple commercial realtors during my time as a multi-unit restaurant owner. Until I teamed up with Tyler I have not been able to find a realtor that truly cares about my interests. Tyler has been a true breath of fresh air! He is incredibly responsive to any and all my needs as a growing restaurateur.”
