WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
We are proud of the people we work for and they are thankful for the work we have done for them.
When we first met, I was not interested in talking to yet another commercial real estate broker trying to sell my community. I apologize. The best thing about our meeting was your professionalism and resilience to find a buyer. AND YOU FOUND TWO!!! I am glad the last one stuck and you accomplished your goal. It was a true pleasure to meet and work with you. Thank you very much for the top shelf goody basket and champagne. And thank you very much for selling my community. I don’t meet many true gentlemen and have the privilege to work with them. But I just did!
Greg Pavlisin and family
Mobile Home Community Investor/Owner
I first met Tom Parks 30 years ago when he acted as Buyer’s Broker for our first manufactured housing community purchase. Tom and his team provided excellent depth of services including site selection, underwriting and transaction negotiation on that and subsequent deals. Those traits have been Tom’s marker over the years since. I highly recommend Tom Parks because he has shown me over 30 years that he has the skill set to bring together the talent and services required to navigate complex transactions and bring them to successful conclusions.
