Empire’s commitment to smooth closings and easy dealings has earned us the respect and appreciation of some of the industry’s leading firms. Below are the sentiments of some of Empire’s recent business partners:
"Davis Development sold Empire the Villas at World Gateway in Orlando, Florida in 2004. The transaction went so well that over the next 3 years Empire purchased from us 8 more apartment communities located in Atlanta, Memphis, Houston, Charlotte and Columbia, South Carolina. Empire's team is easy to work with and all of our transactions closed smoothly without incident. Davis Development values its relationship with Empire and hopes to continue doing deals with Empire in the future."
Fred Hazel, Vice President Lance Chernow, General Counsel Davis Development
"My name is Matthew Friedman and I was the agent who facilitated the closing of the four property portfolio in Toledo, OH. I wanted to personally congratulate you on the closing. This was the first time I’ve worked directly with your organization and I was truly impressed. Empire did exactly what they said they would do from the beginning through the closing. Eli Feller is a class act and I enjoyed working with him, as well as Abe Miller, and look forward to additional deals in the future.
I am confident that Empire will do well with the portfolio and look forward to seeing the value your operations team instills.
I hope to have the opportunity to work with you and your acquisition / disposition team in the future. Best of luck as you continue to grow your family of companies."
Matthew E. Friedman Associate Vice President of Investments/Director Marcus & Millichap Encino, CA
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Empire American Holdings in their acquisition of the Palm Beach Gardens Office Park. As the seller's agent, I was very involved with Simcha Podolsky and the entire Empire acquisiton team throughout the negotiation, due diligence and closing period.
Empire performed a quick due diligence and closed on the terms specified in the contract. Additionally, in a time when the financial markets were not in the best of shape. Empire's ability to get the loan required to close was never in doubt.
I would personally recommend them for any real estate acquisition."
