"Joe, It is with appreciation and respect that I commend you for your recent work finding and negotiating on our behalf the purchase of a 27,000 square foot facility on 5 acres to relocate our Power Sports Operation.

Throughout the process of researching and evaluating properties, the high level of quality service and support we received from you was excellent.  During this process, you intently focused on our requirements, always ensuring that the properties would fit our needs. The transaction was complicated in the fact that you skillfully renegotiated our existing building lease on a short-term basis while simultaneously negotiating the new building purchase. This property gave us a chance to own rather than lease and will truly benefit our customers!

You always looked out for the best interest of our company as your expertise and counsel was invaluable to us. On behalf of everyone at Cabela’s, thank you Joe for your hard work to make this happen. We truly appreciate all the effort that went into finding and negotiating this property for Cabela’s. It is without reservation that I would recommend your expertise and the services of Colliers International.”
