"...Since 1995, we have exclusively used Bob Altman and Brian Warwick to finance our entire shopping center portfolio of 2 million square feet. They have always delivered on what they promise, often exceeding the terms that they initially quote us. I have come to rely on them as a resource, not only to obtain what I know to be the best financing for each given project, but as an integral member of our acquisition team providing unbiased and valuable due diligence on my acquisitions. I respect Bob and Brian for all the deals that they have done for me over the years and also for all the deals that we didn't transact because of their wise advice and market knowledge. They always place the client's interests above all others. The reputation that they have within the financial community and their strong lender relationships has greatly benefited our organization. Having Bob and Brian, who are so focused and abreast of the capital markets, affords me the freedom to focus on other aspects of my business. In addition to my real estate business, I am also the senior partner in a CPA firm. I have enthusiastically recommended them to all of my best real estate clients. It has been rewarding to receive the glowing feedback from my clients who have used them over the years. Bob and Brian have consistently made me look good to my clients, enhancing my value to my clients and ultimately enhancing my business...."

"... Altman Warwick has been a leading broker for Kimco in our urban investment area. The strength and quality of their relationships that they have introduced to Kimco is truly impressive. They fight hard for their clients but do so in a very professional and non-confrontational manner. They have been integral in terms of managing the relationships and expectations of all parties involved in our deals. Bob and Brian operate their business with a highest level of integrity and trust. ..."

"...Winstanley Enterprises LLC is a second generation, family- owned real estate development and investment firm with over 5 million square feet of commercial property located throughout New England. We entrusted Bob Altman and Brian Warwick with the largest and most complex financing transaction in our firm's 45 year history. We awarded them the exclusive assignment to secure a permanent loan on a 510,000 sq. ft. bio-science office building that we redeveloped in downtown New Haven. We chose them because of their accurate assessment of the capital markets with regard to the financing of this project. Bob and Brian delivered exactly what they told us they would and they have earned the reputation within our company as the "go-to guys" on our important financing requirements.

With over $100 million of financing successfully completed by Altman Warwick over the past several years, we are extremely satisfied with their professionalism, loyalty and unswerving dedication. When deal issues arise, Altman Warwick does not resort to taking the lender's side. They have demonstrated to us their commitment to clearly articulating our company's position to the lender and they have skillfully negotiated resolutions to those issues in our company's best interest. ..."

"...I have been doing business with Robert Altman for over 16 years and more recently with Brian Warwick. We have a large real estate law practice and we are often asked by our clients to assist them with their commercial real estate financing requirements. From our first transaction together, financing the fee position on 522 Fifth Avenue in New York, they have been extremely reliable, professional and responsive to our client's needs. They are also very pro-active in terms of finding smart opportunities for our clients to save money. On one recent deal they brought to our client's attention a very advantageous refinance opportunity. Although this was a small refinance of $4.9 million, they remarkably generated an interest savings in excess of $400,000 over the six year term. Needless to say my client was thrilled with what he considered "found money" that went right to his bottom line...."

"...Within a relatively short period of time after we were referred to Bob Altman and Brian Warwick, they were responsible for establishing what has become one of the most important and strategic business relationships in our firm's history. At our first meeting, they quickly and accurately assessed our need for a more programmatic and cost effective way to raise equity capital. They introduced us to an institutional equity source that previously had no exposure to limited service hotels but were aggressively seeking preferred equity investments. Due largely to the strength Altman Warwick's relationship with this institutional investor, they convinced them of the merits of the project and we were approved. As Altman Warwick correctly predicted, the economic benefits that have resulted from this marriage have been eclipsed by the even greater ancillary benefits that we have derived from becoming partners with this highly respected firm...."

"... Altman Warwick has been an important broker for CIBC for the past several years. They do a terrific job managing their clients and their transactions from application to closing. We respect Altman Warwick for how hard they fight for their clients as well as for their honesty, integrity and sense of fairness. We know that when we receive a package from them we can rely on their numbers. Unlike many other mortgage brokers, they will always address potential problems with us upfront so that we can work together to resolve or structure around the issue. They believe, as do we, that it is always best from a client's perspective to have all the deal issues dealt with upfront verses having surprises come up in the later stages of underwriting after the borrower has spent time and money processing an application...."
