BNI Action Alliance - Cornelius, NC

08/05/2026

We had a great presentation this morning from Reid Bachand with KW Commercial | National Advisory Team! (https://kwcnational.com)

Reid shared why commercial real estate is about much more than finding a building.

His team works exclusively for tenants, helping businesses make smarter decisions when it’s time to renew a lease, relocate, expand, consolidate locations, or secure office, retail, medical, or industrial/warehouse space. Because they don’t represent landlords, their advice is focused solely on protecting the tenant’s interests through stronger negotiations, lower occupancy costs, and long-term real estate strategies that support business growth.

Thank you, Reid, for sharing your expertise with our members and demonstrating how the right commercial real estate strategy can have a major impact on a company’s future. We appreciate you being a valued member of BNI Action Alliance and look forward to seeing the continued success you bring to businesses throughout our community.

If your business has a lease coming up for renewal, is considering a move, needs warehouse or industrial space, or is planning to expand, Reid is a conversation worth having.

A huge thank you to Kathy Closs Byrnes for taking the time to lead an outstanding AI training session for our chapter this morning.

Today’s meeting was a special members-only workshop focused on helping our chapter better understand how AI can be used to work smarter, serve clients better, and grow our businesses. The insights, practical examples, and open discussion made it incredibly valuable.

We appreciate you sharing your knowledge and investing in the success of our members, Kathy.

Thank you for helping our chapter stay ahead of the curve! 👏
