First Midwest Group is a dynamic, full service real estate development company and business operator with a proud history throughout the Midwest and internationally. Founded in 1984 by Mr. Sunil Puri, First Midwest Group is rooted in its willingness to approach new projects as a long-term owner, distinguishing us from other real estate companies. Intrinsic to that approach is our commitment to high quality construction and design standards in our shopping centers, office parks, hospitality properties, and industrial buildings. Our expertise in site selection within the markets we serve is unsurpassed, and we pride ourselves in establishing strong client and community relationships. As a result, we offer the most visible, attractive, and best-maintained sites in the region. Through the years, we steadily have grown both our portfolio and areas of expertise. A natural extrapolation of our core real estate proficiencies is the inception and acquisition of operating businesses. These include a fuel and convenience store chain, hotels, restaurants, and family entertainment parks. Our diverse business involvement further exemplifies the breadth of knowledge and resources upon which we can draw to serve our clients.

For over 60 years, Batavia Enterprises, Inc. has been meeting the real estate needs of customers throughout the Fox Valley. The company has been recognized and awarded for its restoration of historic buildings in addition to providing new buildings to keep up with market demand. With properties in Batavia, Geneva, St. Charles, West Chicago, and Elburn, BEI offers new and historical buildings for lease in all five categories of the rental market: residential, retail, office, warehousing and manufacturing. BEI also offers development sites in Rockford, Sugar Grove and throughout the Fox Valley along Kirk Road, Route 38, Route 47, Main Street and Randall Road in Batavia. As the firm enters its 56th year, we have acquired over 50 properties in the industrial, retail, office/commercial, and residential markets as well as over 1,000 acres of vacant land throughout the Fox Valley area. With so many properties throughout the Fox Valley, BEI saw the need to update Batavia Enterprises, Inc.’s image and name. While BEI started in Batavia, the company did not want to be recognized as only being in Batavia, but did not want to lose its strong history either, so the transition to “BEI Properties” has been made. BEI Properties has enjoyed its 59 years as a real estate firm and looks forward to continuing its success as the Leasing and Property Management Experts of the Fox Valley.
