Jesús Ferrerira has spent more time this season recovering from injuries than on the field, but that has not stopped him from making history with FC Dallas.

With his goal against Austin last week, the forward became the youngest player in MLS history to reach 50 career goals.

“I’m excited to be able to achieve 50 goals at this club, a club I’ve grown up playing in and dreaming about achieving many things,” said Ferreira, who will be with his team in Houston on Saturday to face the Dynamo in another Texas derby.

Ferreira reached the 50-goal mark in just 147 career MLS games, a span in which he’s also logged 30 assists since his 2017 MLS debut.

At 23 years and 139 days old, Ferrera topped the record previously held by current LA Galaxy attacker Diego Fagúndez (23 years, 256 days old).

“It’s a great feeling. My goal is to break records and write my own history, that means a lot to me”, Ferreira said.

Ferreira’s goal last week was just his second this season, in which he had played only 336 minutes.

The absence of FCD’s best scorer in the past two seasons coincides with the team’s current losing record, with just three wins in 11 games.

“We started the season very slow, but I feel like right now we are developing good chemistry, we are starting to score goals, and we want to show our fans that we are a competitive team,” Ferreira said.

FC Dallas’s expectations of winning games increase with Ferreira in the starting lineup to form an explosive offensive duo with the Croatian Petar Mussa.

So far this season, Ferreira and Mussa have only been able to play three games together.

“I think that game by game, training after training, Jesús and I have developed better communication, and that is normal because we are getting to know each other better,” Said Mussa, who is the club’s best scorer with four goals.

The feeling within the FCD is that the presence of Ferreira and Mussa in the starting lineup gives the team a better chance to win.

“Jesús is a significant player for us; his presence in the lineup is important so that he and Mussa can develop a good chemistry. I am sure that Jesús and Petar will give us a lot of joy together,” said FC Dallas midfielder Asier Illarramendi.

With Ferreira and Mussa in good physical condition, FC Dallas will travel to Houston to try to earn their first road victory of the season.

In the Western Conference, FCD is in 12th place with 11 points, while Houston is in eighth with 17.

“The win would be significant, especially because it would be our first away from home. We are a team that usually competes well in Houston, and winning the derby against a direct rival would allow us to climb positions in our conference”, said FC Dallas Coach Nico Estévez.

Like many of his midwestern peers, Bob Mohr left Indiana in the mid-1980s to pursue a commercial real estate career in Dallas. The market was hot, and there was money to be made. But within two years, conditions had drastically changed. Banks were failing, the S&L crisis was taking hold, office buildings that had sprouted up were sitting empty, and no deals were in sight.

The developer for whom Mohr worked wanted to take away his salary and shift him to a commission-only role. Instead, the industry upstart decided to go into business for himself and focus on the emerging specialty of tenant representation. “I worked out of an executive suite someone let me use, and my wife helped me,” Mohr says. “I didn’t have much money to invest in buildings at the time, and I thought that, frankly, tenant reps and corporate folks—nobody wants to hear this—make an obscene amount of money for what they do. You know, you renew a lease and get paid 4 percent of the gross. So, I thought that might be a good area to focus on.”

His first deal was a 3,000-square-foot lease for Christian Broadcasting Network. Initially, business centered around renegotiating agreements for tenants. As the real estate market rebounded, Mohr Partners grew. Clients asked him to do what he did in Dallas in Atlanta and other markets, and the firm evolved to specialize in multi-site, multi-year agreements for national tenants.

By 2017, after 31 years of growing and running his company, Mohr was ready for a fresh challenge and sold the firm to then-president Robert Shibuya in a management buyout. (Shibuya now serves as chairman and CEO and is majority shareholder.) Mohr Partners had 18 offices at the time; today it has 24 and is among the world’s largest tenant-only advisory firms.

“I had done the same thing for so many years, and intellectually, as much as anything, I was ready for something new,” Mohr says. Retirement, however, was not in the cards. He had quietly begun a capital markets side hustle in 2000 and decided to double down on investments via his family office. Things have gone well.

Through Mohr Capital, he has bought and developed projects across the country—retail, industrial, hospitality, and office, and he may expand into student housing, too. In Dallas, he put about $2 million into a 12-story office tower at 4851 LBJ Freeway he bought in 2020 and has nearly filled it up. Among other improvements, he upgraded the building’s cafe and brought in noted Dallas chef James Rowland to run it. “I also used the old Trammell Crow model of hiring a good security guy who knows everyone,” Mohr says.

He’s currently making $7 million in capital improvements to a hotel in Austin and developing a 705,000-square-foot logistics park in Surprise, Arizona. That project, in partnership with Rosewood Property Co., is the first in which he has taken outside equity. Looking ahead, Mohr intends to pursue more hospitality deals. “There are many moving parts, but the yields are so much better if you can hit it right,” he says. He’s also working on a flurry of industrial acquisitions, but intends to proceed with caution on office buys. “Values are down 35 percent,” he says. “There are going to be some great opportunities; you just have to wait for the timing to be right.”
