History
BECO, LLC was founded by Burt Cutright and Eric Olson, uniquely savvy entrepreneurs who joined forces in 1990 with one goal in mind – to provide innovative and outstanding value to their customers.
Based in Chesapeake, Virginia, Burt and Eric discovered that they shared diverse professional passions and talents, specific to quality –
- residential construction
- engineering design
- management of real estate assets
- customer service and stakeholder interaction
Through an unfailing dedication to building better communities, Burt and Eric – and indeed the entire team at BECO – have tirelessly worked to establish the firm as a premier provider of unparalleled real estate products and services.
From milestones like our award-winning Harbour Breeze Lifestyle Apartments in 2002, to our expanding commercial building design and construction practice, BECO’s reach has expanded beyond Hampton Roads, now flourishing throughout the Commonwealth.
Today, BECO owns and manages a diverse and respected portfolio of commercial and residential assets. Guided by its founders, BECO’s growth, success, and fervent commitment to quality – in its properties, in its people, and to our communities – has never waned.

Mission
Improving Communities with Quality Construction
At the heart of our work is the commitment to build quality homes that strengthen communities and this commitment extends from the way we treat clients and employees to the passion we put into the projects we build. Our mission is to enhance the lives of individuals and families by creating safe, sustainable, and beautiful living spaces that foster connections, promote well-being, and inspire growth.
Quality construction can have a significant impact on communities by attracting and retaining residents, increasing property values, and creating a sense of pride and belonging for residents.
Designed with the needs of the community in mind, our projects include features such as parks, dog walks, clubhouses, and walkways that encourage physical activity and social connections. Promoting healthy living and social interaction builds stronger, more vibrant communities.
As builders and developers, it is our responsibility to invest in construction that improves people’s lives and foster a sense of community pride and belonging.
Values
We believe that quality construction is more than just erecting buildings; it is about building relationships, fostering trust, and investing in people. Our values reflect this belief.
Commitment
BECO is committed to quality, innovation, and superior customer experiences. Moreover, our highest priority is our steadfast commitment to all of our stakeholders – our staff, our clients, and the people of the communities that we serve.
Integrity
BECO believes the best customer experiences are achieved when a greater purpose is served. Within each project and business endeavor, each customer and staff interaction, each email and phone call – we extol the virtues of ethics and integrity.
Community
BECO values community. We believe that by fueling a community’s vitality, we help build its future. BECO is committed to building vibrant, strong, healthy communities that promote social and economic growth; and to the people of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
