Our Story

Mike Doherty married his wife Belinda in 1997. At the time, she was an active duty officer in the USAF. They relocated to Luke AFB in Arizona and Mike joined Arch Wireless as a Wireless Data Product Manager.

In 2000, they relocated to Florida and Mike decided to open a pressure washing and painting business. That small business flourished and grew into what we know today as Black Pearl Custom Painting, LLC.
The business was relocated to Tucson, AZ in 2004 and finally to San Antonio, TX  in 2009 where it remains open until this day.

Throughout all of this time Mike began to buy homes, fix them up and rent or sell them. He was successful but found real estate to be a very time consuming and challenging business.

 He regrouped and focused efforts on purchasing small tracts of land to clear for future development. While this venture also proved profitable, he discovered it had a very long and slow business cycle.

In 2019 Mike decided it would be best to serve other landowners in central and south-central Texas by providing land clearing services. It was at this time that Black Pearl REI, LLC was formed. It is our true belief that Mike will continue to service the needs of homeowners and landowners now and well into the future!

 How may we best serve you?
