"This [valuation report] looks great.   I can see arguments both for higher and lower valuations.  Your conclusion seems quite reasonable.   A few more years of solid performance and it appears we will reach a very different conclusion about our worth.   Your report is not only very informative and helpful, but also a short in the arm.   Thanks again for your thorough, professional work and rapid response.   I look forward to our paths crossing again. "

"I wanted to take a moment to thank your company and specifically Lenny Nelson for his diligent efforts in assisting me during my recent quest to purchase a homeowners association management company.   I found Lenny to be persistent in his pursuit of a company that would fit my needs, but at the same time always careful to put my interests as his client first.   His honesty and "tell it like it is" attitude were refreshing and a pleasure to work with.   Although our efforts to purchase a business ultimately did not come to fruition, it was time well spent as I have found in Lenny a trusted ally and a solid resource.   I will not hesitate to utilize your company and Lenny in the future should I again have a need for business brokerage services."

"Our mediation succeeded, in large measure because of your obviously extensive preparation, your insights into the true needs of the disputing parties, and your ability to communicate with your clients about the economic risks of going forward with litigation.   Your background in business and in law, and your perspective on economic realities, in my view, provides you with unique qualifications as a receiver of troubled business enterprises.   It was my pleasure and privilege to work with you."

"When we were considering Art Berry as receiver for our 20 unit townhouse project, Art's resume of Real Estate, Law, Business Management, Banking, and Brokerage indicated that he has a unique skill set.
  In practice Art has shown that he can effectively apply all areas of his skill set in a practical and effective manner.   Art's organization is highly productive and staffed with very experienced and proactive individuals.   Lastly but most importantly Art has great energy and drive to push all aspects forward in a timely manner.   I would be happy to provide any feedback on Art or his organization for potential future receiverships."

"It is my pleasure to recommend the service of Art Berry to your institution.
  I have had the pleasure of observing Art's outstanding experience and performance in the areas of acting as receiver/trustee, business valuations and problem loan resolutions over the last several years.   In particular, over the last several months, Art has acted as the court appointed Receiver for a multi-million dollar townhome project in Boise, Idaho.   The case has required the ability to deal with outstanding litigation with contractors, vendors and homeowners associations.   It has required a knowledge of the construction industry, litigation strategy, real estate development and sales, employment of contractors and engagement of real estate brokers.   In every facet, Art has demonstrated a highly effective and timely style to resolve this problem credit.   It is without reservation that I recommend Art Berry to you."  READ entire letter.

"Art Berry is serving very successfully as a receiver in a troubled real estate project with which we are involved as a lender.
 The project is a 23 unit live/work townhome development in Boise, Idaho, near the riverfront. Twenty units were unsold and no sales had occurred in the 18 months prior to Art's appointment in mid February 2010.   Art brought a great deal of energy, wisdom and solid decision making to our project and I have no doubt he will attack whatever assignment given him with the same vigor, enthusiasm and wisdom.   I can think of no one I would give a higher recommendation than Arthur Berry."  READ entire letter.

"...This sale/purchase has been like pulling teeth as we're sure you will agree. Your firm, yourself, your office staff and especially Mr. Ronald Winkler, remained professional, helpful and ethical throughout this ordeal, which was the main reason we stayed the course and saw this through. We truly appreciate all the effort you put forth for us and our corporation. Mr. Winkler especially deserves special mention. From day one, he conducted himself in a totally professional and ethical manner. He represented your firm in an exemplary manner and was totally straight-forward and honest and never once did he insult our intelligence or try to guide our decisions by giving us 'legal advice." He simply told it like it was. Without your reputable firm behind us, we would have thrown up our hands in disgust and declared a 'sale fail' and walked away. We are confident we will be successful in our new business."
