“Conklin Real Estate represented us in our lease negotiations at Chase Tower. The lease process is a very intense process and it’s vital to have someone that knows the marketplace and the players. Bob brought us the information necessary to make an informed decision to renew our lease with the Bank. Chase Tower has been a great location for the last three decades. Our comfort with the location coupled with the Bank’s renewed commitment to the building made this the best option for us. We were very happy with the job Bob did for us and I am recommending him to others.”

“Bob is a Turnkey package. Bob is extremely thorough. His follow through is excellent. He handled everything for us. He made the process of re-negotiating our lease easy. Bob interacted well with the building, our architect and our contractor. We didn’t have to do any of the paperwork – a task we dreaded. With Bob, it was just a matter of drafting documents.”

“I thought Bob was very helpful and efficient. He returned our calls right away and always kept us informed about changes or other information that came available. We looked at ten spaces in one day and found a great space. Not going out looking on our own saved time. Bob helped us convey to landlords what we wanted. We signed a lease today – just a month and two days after we had our market tour. We’re getting an all new buildout and are looking forward to a fresh, new space in a new building. This is the third transaction Bob has completed for our firm. We have been very happy with Conklin Real Estate Services.”
