Testimonials
“When we decided to sell this property, we knew we could reallocate funds to more efficient retail operations, and decided to do so through a disciplined disposition process. We selected Jeremiah and his team because we were convinced that they could achieve full value and a smooth closing. We were impressed with their ability to get the asset in front of a broad audience of qualified buyers so quickly, identify the lead candidates, and to efficiently advance the deal to ensure closing by end of Q2 2019. We would be happy to work with Jeremiah again.”
David Bianchi, Vice President Real Estate Development, Canadian Tire Corporation Limited
