Client Testimonials & Letters of Recommendation

DesignGroup

We are now enjoying the fruits of our mutual labors. Our rent reduction went into effect this month. We will be enjoying this expense reduction on our financials for the next ten years.

On behalf of all the Principals at DesignGroup, I wanted to thank you for your assistance and guidance through this process that actually began at the end of last year when we engaged you as our Tenant Representative.

Disciplinary Council of The Supreme Court of the State of Ohio

This is to let you know that I was very pleased with the service you and your company provided in helping us find a new location for our office. As you may recall, at first I was somewhat skeptical of the value of working with a tenant’s representative, but you proved to be an invaluable help to us in this matter.

Progressive Medical, Inc.

It is hard to believe that we have been in our building for almost 7 years. As I have mentioned before, I want to thank you again for working so hard on our behalf. Your experience and guidance directly helped us achieve our short and long term goals. Last year, we were able to triple the size of our initial building thus enabling us to stay at our current location, saving us the additional cost of moving for a third time in 6 years. By utilizing The Schenk Company, Inc. tenant rep services our goals have not only been met … but exceeded!

Lorms & Belfrage, Inc

His services have greatly assisted our company’s ability to provide meaningful analysis for clients having a need for better depth of understanding the economics associated with the ownership of the office and other commercial properties.

• A demonstrated ability to quickly grasp the client’s objectives with an immediate focus on outlining the steps necessary accomplish the stated objectives.

I want to thank you for your wonderful job making my new office happen.Your knowledge of the type of other businesses I would need is a big time saver. The building company, legal, and computer services were especially good fits for my job. I will use your services on future projects and be happy to refer others to you who are planning medical offices.

 

Alternative Solutions HomeCare

As a growing home healthcare agency, Alternative Solutions HomeCare has been through the process of searching for office space 5 times over the past 10 years for each of our branches in three different cities. By far, this last search was the easiest because of you and your tenant representation services.

Dr. Leslie McDougall, DDS

Greg met with me and truly “listened” to the unique needs of the space that was required. I asked him to step “way outside the box” when showing me properties that were traditionally non medical/dental spaces. He was tireless in his search for the perfect space and nearly a year later, I signed a lease on the ideal location fulfilling all of my requirements with regards to square footage, Dublin/Arlington border, professional park, lease with option to buy, and esthetic level. Additionally, Greg provides excellent networking opportunities and even emotional support when the client needs him the most.

American Express Financial Advisors

You managed to get our team of advisors together and give a clear market overview so we could come to a quick decision on where to locate our offices.

Royal Electric Construction Corporation

I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for your efforts on our behalf…There was never a time that I felt you weren’t representing our needs over everything else.

Progressive Medical, Inc.

I want to take a moment to thank you for all you have done regarding our new facilities at 543 McCorkle Blvd. As you know, this is our second construction endeavor in the past 4 years. The first one was a nightmare … this one was a dream.

Not only did you negotiate reduced rent for the next eight years, but we were able to get a new floor installed in our viewing area plus received a check for $6000 we can bank or use for other projects in the gym.

I have found Greg not only professional but very knowledgeable about the real estate industry, very valuable to have on your team as you sort through, very prompt and efficient on to respond within 24 hours on a regular basis, very valuable tool for anyone who has a need for his services.

The McIntyre Company

I found Greg to be very responsive to our needs. We encountered many unforeseen issues and seemingly insurmountable problems. Greg proved his value throughout the process with his dogmatic and persistent pursuit of timely and critical information and documentation that would eventually be the catalyst to successfully close our deal. Greg approaches his position that would eventually be the catalyst to successfully close our deal. Greg approaches his position with a sense of urgency and integrity. He is constantly looking for other ways to bring value and solutions to issues. I enjoyed our working together and highly recommend Greg to perform.

ActionGroup

Greg found us an ideal existing building to put our business triple in size from our current building and meet our future expansion. This purchase saved us considerable time and money. His knowledge of the market was a great asset and was there when we needed it.
