Testimonials
“We worked
closely with Cambridge Hanover putting together a simultaneous purchase and
partial lease of a 220,000 sq. ft. distribution facility in Central New Jersey.
Although, we had an excellent credit tenant in hand, the buyer under contract
could not perform. Fortunately, we found Cambridge Hanover who reacted quickly
and was able to complete their contract, lease negotiations and due diligence
within thirty days, enabling the tenant to obtain the space they wanted.
Cambridge Hanover ended up with a solid investment having an immediate income
stream as well as additional upside potential. I am happy to report that as
listing broker we were compensated on both the sale and the lease and kept the
listing on the balance of the vacant space. A
truly “win-win” situation for all parties.”

“Cambridge Hanover acquired one of
our Bestfoods Baking Business surplus office/manufacturing/distribution
facilities that also contained one of our very popular bakery retail outlet
stores. We had already relocated the manufacturing operations to other plants,
but wanted to retain the 100,000 sq. ft. office and depot/outlet component of
the facility as the location continued to work well for us for those functions.
They structured a 15 year lease for the portion of the property we wanted to
hold on to, and rehabbed the office area while we were still in occupancy. The
balance of the complex was converted into a high-tech flex building for leasing
to third parties. Cambridge Hanover closed and renovated the property on an
‘all cash’ basis, and had the ability to handle all of the
permitting, lease negotiation and construction issues.”

“I have worked
with Cambridge Hanover for over ten years. I am still amazed at their focused
acquisition criteria. Due to that focus, they are one of the most responsive
investors I have dealt with. Cambridge Hanover has always shown a great deal of
respect for the brokerage industry and has protected me
accordingly.”

“Let me start off by saying
that most importantly, Cambridge Hanover did what they said they were going to
do with respect to all aspects of the transaction. The process went very
smoothly and without incident. The brokerage community should be happy to know
that Cambridge Hanover performs, pays market commissions on time and rewards
its brokers with additional listing opportunities.”

“We worked closely with Cambridge Hanover in the sale of
our Gateway Lakes properties located in St. Petersburg, FL. They worked
conscientiously throughout the due diligence process and exemplified
professionalism. They took the initiative to contact me directly when the
typical modes of communication between our counsels began to falter. Their
efforts resulted in our bringing the transaction to fruition and on
schedule.”

“So many buyers get under
contract with no intention of closing unless everything lines up right or they
can re-trade. Even if they close, it is often a painful and time consuming
experience for both the seller and the broker. I have been involved in several
deals with Cambridge Hanover and when they get under contract — no games
— they close.”

“After almost ten years in
our current facility I can honestly say that Cambridge Hanover has been a
pleasure to work with and we would most likely not be here without their
diligence and effort. Upon finding this property which precisely met our needs
Cambridge Hanover purchased the property and structured a short term lease
which gave us the flexibility we needed to effectively operate. They were not
only accommodating but did everything possible to make the deal work. We have
subsequently restructured the lease to extend the term in exchange for lower
monthly lease payments which not only gave us security for the future but
improved our cost structure. We have enjoyed an extremely good relationship
with this firm and highly recommend them based on this long-standing
relationship.”

“Cambridge Hanover provides the broker with a quick answer on their level of interest; in most cases during the initial deal review. Combine that with their financial capabilities and support of the brokerage community and they become the top of mind buyer for my deals.”

“Cambridge Hanover is a broker's dream to work with. They are financially strong; know what they want; are always immediately accessible; make decisions at light speed; they stand on their word — they don't retrade deals; and they are uncompromisingly loyal to the brokers they work with. They have all the expertise and resources needed in difficult deals, and proved it in a complicated deal I sold them in Columbus with an impossible seller.”
