“John’s expertise, continued follow up, and use of local connections helped us bring this deal to fruition. It was a pleasure working with John as his tenacity and dedication were true assets in closing this deal.” 

“John remained focused and goal-oriented throughout the entire process. I could always count on him to follow up as needed and reaching out to the necessary channels to keep things on track. I appreciated his expertise and attention to detail.”

“We are very impressed with John’s ethics and his work to find us a highly qualified local investor who we look forward to have a long-term relationship with. A sale leaseback made a lot of sense to Toroid and will enable us to make investments for the future. In light of the current situation , covid-19, John managed to stay laser focused and tie all loose ends together. Not an easy task. Thank you Detective McClellan”

“I truly appreciated Kelly’s guidance and real estate expertise provided through every step of the sale process. Whether it was facilitating inspections, handling complicated negotiations, or following up on unanswered questions, she kept the ball rolling and made sure all details were managed in an organized manner.”

“We appreciate John’s guidance and expertise through the process of purchasing our new building and selling both of our former properties. We were impressed that John was able to sell not only one, but both of our former buildings in a timely manner, within months of purchasing our new building. With John’s help we were able to make a seamless transition into our new location on Snow Hill Rd. If you are buying, selling, or leasing commercial real estate, we would highly recommend using John as your Advisor.”

“I was pleased to be able to work with the McClellan Team on the Winterplace office sale. Kelly and John remained in constant communication with me, always following up, and offered their real estate expertise through every step of the process. Their experience brought me a well-qualified buyer that was a perfect fit for this property”

“I was initially unsure if I wanted to continue leasing space, or purchase a new building. I had never purchased a piece of commercial property before and John made the process seamless and thoroughly explained critical details every step of the way. Through John’s market knowledge and expertise, we were able to secure a fantastic free standing building that has been extremely beneficial to my firm. John helped me realize the potential of owning my own building and the positive effects it has had on my business.”

“John was extremely diligent in his efforts to list and sell my industrial building. With just under two weeks on the market, John was able to identify multiple prospects and put the property under contract. We encountered some title issues however John’s knowledge and connections got us through a potentially devastating problem. John followed through every step of the way to ensure any obstacles were overcome and a timely settlement was reached. I appreciate John’s expertise and efforts throughout the entire process.”
