About us
With licensed real estate and business brokers across Texas, we serve both the restaurateur and the real estate developer — bringing 25+ years of hospitality experience to every deal.
bigInk was founded on a simple idea: restaurant real estate should be handled by people who have run restaurants. We have spent more than 25 years in the hospitality industry, and we keep strong relationships with local, regional and national operators and chefs.
We specialize in site selection, strategic launch and rollout of concepts, lease and contract negotiation, property listing, landlord and developer consultation and representation, business brokerage, and even operations financing.
Let us be your one-stop shop to help get your business off the ground and find the right location — or the perfect tenant. We can help relocate, expand, sell or liquidate your business, as well as fill your shopping center with the appropriate mix of hospitality.

Relocate, expand, sell or liquidate a business — including operations financing support.
