Real Estate Titan Bob Knakal, BKREA Founder, Chairman & CEO shares lessons from more than four decades in commercial real estate at the San Antonio/South Texas CCIM Chapter’s annual industry gathering
— Bob Knakal, Founder, Chairman & CEO of BKREA, delivered the featured keynote presentation at the 35th Annual San Antonio/South Texas CCIM Chapter Symposium on Wednesday, October 21, at the Security Service Event Center in San Antonio, Texas. Centered on the theme “Market Mastery: Opportunity, Discipline, and the Next Cycle of Commercial Real Estate,” the symposium brought together commercial real estate professionals for an afternoon of industry education, networking, and insights into the forces shaping the market.
Knakal’s featured presentation, which ran from 1:15 to 2:15 p.m., drew on more than 42 years of experience in commercial real estate, offering attendees a perspective shaped by decades of navigating changing market cycles, negotiating complex transactions, and building successful brokerage businesses. His appearance provided the audience with an opportunity to learn from a veteran of the New York City investment sales market whose career has been defined by specialization, discipline, and a commitment to understanding real estate at the individual-building level.

The symposium is a signature annual event hosted by the San Antonio/South Texas CCIM Chapter, part of the broader CCIM professional network. The chapter brings together CCIM designees, candidates, and affiliate members to exchange market intelligence, develop professional relationships, strengthen industry expertise, and identify opportunities to better serve their clients. The annual symposium builds on that mission by providing a forum for commercial real estate professionals to engage with industry leaders and gain practical knowledge applicable to their businesses. The 2026 program also offered three hours of continuing education.
Knakal’s keynote was met with an enthusiastic response from event organizers and attendees. Following the symposium, organizers thanked him for helping make the event especially memorable, noting that the audience was impressed by his presentation and the valuable takeaways he provided. The reception underscored the importance of bringing experienced industry leaders together to share their knowledge, challenge conventional thinking, and encourage meaningful conversations about the future of commercial real estate.
