Customer Buzz
  
Thanks so much to the following clients who have recently provided testimonials which have been added to the Customer Buzz page of our website.
 
"Bob Gibbons helped us to find the perfect space for our growing business. His ability to understand our needs and translate that to number of square feet was impressive. We ended up with exactly what we needed. Bob did a great job of negotiating the contract, also, so that we ended up with the perfect lease for our business. I highly recommend working with Bob Gibbons."

              Minette Riordan, Scissortail Publishing
 
"Bob has helped our company find office space more than once. Each time with great results. Our company is growing fast and having Bob as part of our resources is imperative. He found the right locations at the right price. Atomic will be turning to Bob once again in about 12-18 months for an even bigger office space."

              Stephen Brown, Atomic Design & Consulting

"We used Bob to negotiate our lease renewal. The landlord had already sent us the renewal offer with only a slight increase. Everything looked fine, and we were going to sign it. Luckily, I talked to Bob first. To begin with his services were "free" to me as the landlord pays his commission. For that cost he got us a significant reduction in our rent, and some upgrades and repairs done on our space. He continues to review our lease on a quarterly basis and let us know of any important events. Bob's experience and professionalism have been an asset to our agency resulting in thousands of dollars saved over the term of our lease."
