Thank you also for your contribution to solving our building needs. From your first presentation to your last visit, your concern and professionalism helped us make sense of a complex, and sometimes discouraging, process. We’re delighted with the results. The new building is everything we hoped for when we started looking a year ago.
Thank you again for your efforts with selling our Charlotte facility. I appreciated your patience and guidance as we resolved the many difficult issues the building presented us during the sales process. Now the contracts are closed and I would not hesitate to recommend your service to any future commercial property sellers.
I want to take this opportunity to thank you for all you did to assist us in relocating our office in Charlotte. You were always available, and always very accommodating when it came to coordinating details for me. It was definitely not an easy task tracking me down as I traveled the country. I must say, you never gave up, and persevered through many adversities. It came together, and thanks to you, we have a very satisfied staff.
Please be informed that Ian J. Bertolina of Bertolina Commercial Real Estate Services. Inc., was contracted to represent Braunco Inc., on the sale of om two (2) former manufacturing buildings and land, located in Mooresville North Carolina. 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.

I would like to place on record your most helpful assistance from the beginning when we decided to look for a larger location. It was with your assistance that we finally decided to move to Arrowridge Boulevard and we much appreciated your positive help in arranging the Lease for us on favorable terms and then ensuring that the layout of the new premises was to the required design and standards.
Just a note to thank you for bringing TechnoCom Business Systems, Inc. to Independence Pointe. The patience you showed with Jim is a real credit to your professionalism, and your credibility and market knowledge helped convince Jim that our Park meshed perfectly with his corporate objectives. It is always an added pleasure in business when the parties involved come away with a feeling of personal friendship, and that has certainly been the case for me. I have sincerely enjoyed working with you on this deal, and put high value on the friendship we have begun to develop. Let’s not forget that over the coming months! I’m also glad we were able to play golf after so many months of negotiating this deal. What a great way to end this portion of the transaction. Ian, if I can be of help to you in any way, please don’t hesitate to call I really hope we’ll have the opportunity to work together soon on another deal. Again, THANKS, for the confidence shown in us, and the way in which you orchestrated this deal, staying with us both from start to finish.
I’ve known Ian for many years and was thrilled with the prospect of selling our multi-building campus through his firm. We listed the property on his website and with his many contacts in the industry, we had interest right away. The negotiation was handled in a quick and professional manner and exceeded my expectations. We had an acceptable offer within the first 30 days that was very close to our asking price and we were able to close the deal without any complications or stress on either the buyer or seller’s side. I would recommend Ian to handle your commercial real estate needs and will use him again if the opportunity arises.
