We were very satisfied with the amount of real estate information and knowledge presented by Ian that allowed us to determine the proper value of the buildings and resulted in the successful completion of the sale. Mr. Bertolina followed all sales leads and presented all of the many inquiries resulting from his advertisements in local and national media which allowed contacts with multiple potential buyers. He also coordinated contacts and discussions with other real estate brokers to ensure that our building specifications were relayed to interested buyers and followed progress of the sale to the day of closing. We highly recommend Bertolina Commercial Real Estate Services for your real estate needs.
During the time that we worked together, I was very impressed with your command of the Charlotte commercial real estate market. You quickly knew where we would find the best value for our needs, and what to expect once we arrived. The professional rapport that you have developed over the years opened doors, enabling us to schedule efficiently and gaining us priority treatment. Your communication and follow-up was always excellent. Over the years, I have moved a business office three times and you by far have been the most professional and diligent commercial real estate agent that I have worked with. Your long relationship with ASCO, dating from 1995 when you found the Fort Mill location for us, has been advantageous for our company and I have been the most recent beneficiary of your expertise.
I wanted to thank you again for the very successful and expeditious sale of my client’s commercial property in Charlotte. I had received a referral to you from another broker, and your performance has borne out their recommendation.

I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone in need of commercial brokerage services in your area. Please feel free to share this letter with others to whom you feel it might be useful.
From listing to close Ian was responsive and friendly. My partner and I have over 50 years combined residential, real estate experience yet wanted a professional, commercial broker to meet our high expectations. We hired Ian.

My father and I appreciate all your hard work on the sale of our commercial property in Charlotte. We know what a tough sell you were up against as the building required at least $75,000 in repairs and updating. Meanwhile, to compound things, we had to overcome multiple break-ins that caused a further degree of difficulty to sell a damaged structure due to copper theft. We certainly hope to work with you in the near future! Thank you again for your good service and be well.
I wanted to take the time to thank you for the help you provided with the recent sale of 110 114 Knob Hill Road. From the beginning, your experience and expertise helped us every step of the way. With two buildings on the site I know this was not a typical sale. However, even though it was complicated your perseverance made the difference, and in the end the results exceeded my expectations. I also appreciated that you took the time, from the very start, to explain your process and strategy. That really put me at ease from day one. You kept me in the loop as you had potential buyers interested. Based on the results and your hands-on approach, I’ll have no problem referring you in the future for similar services. Thanks again for being a broker I can count on.
