Broker Testimonials

"I am writing to thank you for your much appreciated assistance in the sale transaction of Les Façades de la Gare. As you know, this transaction was lengthy and we encountered many obstacles. As Property Manager, you were a valuable asset and a wealth of knowledge to help find solutions and overcome the challenges as they arose. This is not the first sale transaction we finalize in which Magil Laurentienne is the firm managing the property. As I have mentioned before, the institutional quality reporting, including budgets, financials, and monthly management reports have always been a valuable instrument in completing such transactions. In all cases, the purchasers and I, as underwriting broker, greatly appreciate the accuracy and detail of the information provided. During the extended marketing period and subsequent due diligence period, Magil's successful leasing efforts ensured the NOI was maintained, while new leasing kept the buyer's interest. Furthermore, I could always count on your professionalism during tours, for which the quality of Magil's management services was evident, as the property was impeccably clean and very well maintained. It was a pleasure working with you in this sale transaction. Thank you once again, for your assistance."

Tenant Testimonials

"On behalf of ACI, we would like to thank you for providing us with excellent service during the course of our collaboration.

From start to end, we were extremely pleased with the services provided to AC1 by you and the entire Magil Laurentienne team. Firstly, your efforts to minimize our costs did not go unnoticed. Secondly, we greatly appreciated your interventions to ensure that the best interests of ACI prevailed throughout the project; in fact, they were instrumental in helping us achieve our project targets and reduced the pressure on the ACI side. Furthermore, although we were based on another continent, i.e. Geneva, Switzerland, a suitable level of communication was achieved during all phases of the project which greatly facilitated our role.

All Magil Laurentienne staff with whom the ACI team came into contact with, for example security and cleaning services, demonstrated a high level of professionalism. Without exception, they were polite and ahead of our every need. This was much appreciated by the ACI staff.

Last but not least, we were especially impressed that everything was delivered on time as promised despite aggressive deadlines. Such a well managed project made our collaboration with you a pleasure and a success. In closing, we would not hesitate to recommend Magil Laurentienne to anyone seeking a competent and professional business partner."
