Robertson Properties Group

“We are extremely impressed with Reza, Ramez and the other team members at REZA Investment Group. Their team executed a disposition for us despite several difficult challenges. These challenges included a very tight time frame for closing the transaction given a 1031 reverse exchange deadline, and less than ideal market conditions which arguably impacted financing feasibility and the number of qualified buyers. Ramez (and team) were attentive, and stayed closely connected during the entire disposition process – from marketing the asset to sourcing a qualified buyer, and helping us address a variety of due diligence questions. The team members are undoubtedly dedicated and highly skilled professionals who have earned our trust and confidence.”

GWP Real Estate

“Reza and his team recently handled the disposition of a $70 Million shopping center for our company. What surprised us most when we approached them to sell the property was their recommendation to not sell the asset due to its long term potential. They truly put their clients’ needs first. They exhibited superior deal-making and problem solving skills during the various tenuous phases of negotiations of the transaction. Because of their cooperative approach in working with other brokers, the property was widely exposed and we were able to transact at an even higher price. The REZA team seamlessly handled the entire process from their thorough underwriting and due diligence of the asset to administering methodical buyer interviews and achieving a top market price. They have worked with our firm on several additional projects in Nevada and California and it is always a true pleasure to work with them, as they are always genuine and have a deep understanding of the market.”

Formerly GE Capital Real Estate

“REZA Investment Group assisted us with the disposition of a $90MM retail property, which GE had a non-performing loan on. With a very complicated and challenging ownership structure, REZA was brought in specifically because of their prior direct dealings with all stakeholders within the ownership and the financing of the asset. The assignment required a broker that could be relied upon to provide the skills, integrity and transparency to a situation that demanded it. REZA worked diligently through numerous deal-related challenges to close what was one of the more complex deals I have ever seen. They were able to satisfy the differing objectives within the ownership and exposed the property to a very broad spectrum of capable potential investors. REZA was a delight to work with at all times, and their hands-on approach and instant accessibility throughout were instrumental in getting the sale to successfully close at a price which delighted all parties.”
