Having a creative real estate broker to take you through every step of the process...priceless

May 26, 2008 - Brokerage
Real estate is traditionally seen as a business of numbers and figures. Beyond the numbers exists a world of strategy, emotion, restraint, risk and impulse. Each real estate transaction consists of an array of emotions. Countless buyers and sellers are drawn to a real estate broker for aid, advice and service. Standing out in a sea of competitors is a difficult feat requiring talent, knowledge, passion, ingenuity and experience. For the better part of a decade, American Investment Properties has climbed up the ranks to become the most aggressive brokerage on Long Island. From ever changing market conditions to real estate law and financial institutions, American Investment Properties has the knowledge and experience to guide any transaction through the always present obstacles arising during a deal. Throughout my career, I have upheld an adamant unwillingness to accept that a deal cannot be made. When dealing with two opposing interests in a transaction, there is a constant need to seek out the problem and come up with a creative solution. Every deal consists of a seller who wants the most for their property and a buyer who is looking for the best value. By understanding the value of a property and seeking out the key ways to present that value to a potential buyer, both parties walk away satisfied. We are proficient in assisting both sides of a real estate transaction. I never stop thinking and analyzing. Every detail of a property is studied and scrutinized. I believe the devil is in the details. Every factor is carefully evaluated; from location to selling price to cap rate to the history and background of a property-we do not miss any aspect of the deal. After so many years of analyzing Long Island's commercial properties, all I need is the address of a property and I'll tell you everything you need to know about it. On the other hand, if you ask me what I had for dinner last night, I won't be so quick to respond. American Investment Properties offers our clients an unmatched resource: expertise and experience. Long Island's economy and commercial real estate market is unlike any other in the region. Our focus and commitment to Long Island real estate over the years has secured us the most trusted name on the island. By providing property appraisals, genuine advice, market analysis and the most current information, our clients are assured the best possible information and ultimately the best possible outcomes. American Investment Properties is not only a source for investment opportunities; we are also a source of information. A well informed client is our best client. Being exposed to Long Island's real estate market for 365 days a year immerses us in the field. Our extensive clientele benefits from our understanding of both the local and national markets. American Investment Properties represents both national and local sellers as well as investors. Staying multi-faceted is one of our most unique attributes. Our established clientele makes up our large database of qualified buyers and sellers. We pride ourselves on having the largest phone bill as a result of constantly staying in touch with our clients. Whether informing a client of the deal's progress or calling a buyer to notify them of potential opportunities, we are always in touch with our clients. Our long-term relationships have given us the honor of repeat business. After so many years in business, we appreciate the value of honesty. Our clients appreciate our honesty as well. If a seller is asking too much for their property, we provide sincere and accurate information in an effort to encourage informed decision making. At the end of the day, real estate is what I am truly passionate about. This is a 24 hour a day job and you have to love it to be good at it. I try to surround myself with people who possess the same passion for real estate. I always find myself passing along the knowledge and techniques that have made me successful. American Investment Properties will continue to excel in Long Island's commercial real estate market because we are the best at what we do.
