Testimonials

“Almost immediately after closing, we moved in to our new office. Now that we are occupying it, we can really appreciate the value of your expert advice identifying and subsequently purchasing the building. It was through you through knowledge of the local real estate market coupled with your vast experience in the intricacies of negotiating which allowed us to sign the contract. Your hand holding was instrumental leading us through the intricacies of the legal, as well as financial hurdles. This made it possible for us to become the proud owners of the building which will be the place of our medical practice for years to come. Thank you very much, Ian.”

“Sarasota Architectural Salvage started out in a small building on the fringe of downtown, and, six month later, I realized we could go a lot bigger.  I didn’t even know this building on Central Avenue existed and I have to credit the Realtor, Ian Black for finding it for me.”- (on his 10,000 SF two story warehouse) Jesse White, Owner, Sarasota Architectural Salvage.” Article in Sarasota Herald Tribune on May 10, 2008
