Nick Freeman

Nick Freeman serves as a Leasing Specialist within the PBS R6 Office of Leasing, part of the General Services Administration’s Public Buildings Service. In this role, he is responsible for executing strategic real estate leasing transactions to secure nonresidential space for federal agencies across the region. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to acquire cost-effective, mission-critical office and administrative facilities through long-term lease agreements. Freeman specializes in the full lifecycle of lease acquisitions—from market research and site evaluation to lease negotiation and contract administration—ensuring compliance with federal real property regulations and alignment with agency operational requirements. His primary contractor relationship is with Bella Terra LLC, a key player in the nonresidential real estate leasing sector. Freeman maintains a consistent, transactional working relationship with this vendor, leveraging its portfolio of commercial properties to meet federal space needs. While Bella Terra LLC is the dominant partner, his procurement activities reflect a preference for established, large-scale real estate lessors with proven capacity to deliver turnkey leased facilities under GSA leasing authorities. Freeman’s contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of leases awarded under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven focus on securing optimal space solutions rather than socioeconomic targeting, consistent with the nature of real estate leasing where specialized property ownership often limits the pool of qualified vendors. His procurement focus is overwhelmingly centered on NAICS 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings—accounting for 97.7% of his activity. He specializes in procuring leased office and administrative space, with minor activity under NAICS 531190 for other real estate property types. His expertise lies in evaluating building suitability, lease terms, and facility compliance with federal standards, making him a key practitioner in the federal real estate leasing domain.
