Client Testimonials: What our customers say about us
“We want to thank you for the great job in selling our 16-unit apartment building in Valley Village within 45 days. We selected Hanes…because of your track record, outstanding personnel, and your saying you would be able to obtain a $26,000 higher sales price than the other brokers. In fact, you were able to obtain four full price offers, even though 6 of the 16 units were master metered bachelors. You found a buyer who paid full price, which allowed us to exchange into a $4 million property in San Diego…We appreciate your professionalism and integrity in selling our building. You were on time for every appointment, kept every promise and did what you said you were going to do. You will be highly recommended.”
- Philip and Carmen Donia
“Thank you for selling my three properties. Before working with you I had never worked with anyone in the real estate field who did everything that was promised and even more.
…I especially appreciated the fact that you never wasted my time with offers from unqualified buyers or offers below the list price. The Variel property was particularly challenging, given the fact that it had a considerable amount of deferred maintenance and was in a difficult neighborhood…Thank you for tying up all the loose ends so that all repairs were made at a reasonable price and with virtually no effort on my part…If you ever need to have a potential client talk to a satisfied customer, please feel free to have them call me.”
- Ann Snyder
“…We purchased our first property through your firm, our second 12 months later and executed a 1031 exchange into a new property 16 months after our first purchase.
We were able to significantly increase the value of the properties we exchanged through your help and timely advice. The property we recently purchased with our exchange is much newer and larger than the previous units and one that should do very well in the long term. The service we have received from Hanes has been excellent. I have heard of others having horror stories during their exchange process. Ours was well orchestrated and well done…Thank you for the excellent service…We look forward to working with Hanes in the future.”

“I am emphatically happy with the sale of the Milwood property in Canoga Park and the purchase of the Adams property in Glendale…The purpose was to simultaneously sell Milwood and place the net proceeds into Adams to achieve a total tax deferral of any gain. You flawlessly accomplished and synchronized these transactions. In the 30 years I have been involved in real estate acquisitions, I have never seen anyone more attractively package property for sale than you. Also, a second exchange involving a 28 unit and 31 unit property only reinforces my previous comments. My father, a self-made businessman, Rabbi and World War II refugee from Lithuania, who lived to the age of 89, regarded you as the most trustworthy, effective and honorable professional he had ever dealt with. I can only second his assessment of you.”

“Thank you for handling the successful exchange of our apartment building located on Glenwood Road in prime northwest Glendale. As we were the original developer of the property back in the mid 80’s, it was particularly hard for us to part with the building…
Your company denotes the highest professionalism and we particularly commend your close attention to detail and process of prescreening potential buyers before recommending we move forward. We were also extremely gratified to complete the sale all cash at the full asking price after receiving multiple offers…
Your assistance on our behalf is as always, greatly appreciated. When we sell a property we interview several realtors, but we always end with choosing Hanes Investment Realty, Inc. because YOU’RE THE BEST.
- Don and Charlene Nelson
“I wanted to let you know that I am extremely pleased with your excellent service and exceptional performance in handling the recent sale of my apartment building…It’s almost hard to believe that only 21 days elapsed from the date of signing the listing agreement to receiving the first full price offer. It’s even more remarkable that you were able to generate two additional offers, both of which were excellent and nearly equal to the first offer! It should be noted that the price you obtained was approximately 7% higher than the best unsolicited, but unqualified, offer that had been presented to me…From listing to closing took 85 days and because of your efforts and great communication with my Nebraska broker, we were able to close on the upleg property here in Columbus the very same day (actually within about 4 hours) of the closing on the Pasadena building. I feel that your knowledge of the market and expertise in qualifying added a great deal of value to this worry-free transaction!”

“On behalf of the Olive Street Partnership, I wanted to thank you and your firm for your exceptional performance in marketing our 19-unit apartment building located on Olive Street in Ventura. Your system of thoroughly qualifying buyers in advance of presenting us with an offer is superb. Your hands-on approach and meticulous attention to detail allowed me to go about my normal business – hassle free. Even more pleasing was the structure of the transaction. Our original intent was to complete a 1031 exchange, but as a secondary option you recommended that we reserve the right to carry back the new first loan at very attractive stair-stepped interest rates. This arrangement kept our options open, not to mention, the offer you obtained at $45,000 over the asking price was excellent.”
