Mark Tinus
Partnering with the NAI Ohio Equities Industrial Property Team was a gamechanger for us. They quickly understood our challenges and recommended a smart pivot from leasing to selling. Their proactive approach and market expertise resulted in multiple offers within two weeks and a successful closing just 55 days after listing. This allowed us to focus on our core business without the burden of managing real estate. We couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome.

Gilbert Bundy, CEO

We would like to thank Curt Berlin and the Industrial Property Team for their services in the successful marketing of one of our industrial properties in Ohio. Curt played a pivotal role in guiding the NAI Ohio Equities Industrial Property Team through a highly competitive market to secure a buyer for the large facility in just seven weeks. Curt's deep industry knowledge and commitment to innovation were evident in the Industrial Property Team's marketing approach. Their back-to-basics approach of identifying and targeting the largest employers and manufacturing companies in the area, then contacting them using Al-driven prospecting, targeted outreach via Zoomlnfo, and a multi-channel communication strategy, led to a fully executed Letter of Intent in record time. Beyond this project, Curt has been a trusted advisor to Bundy Baking Solutions for many years, consistently delivering value through his expertise in industrial real estate. He has consulted with Bundy on multiple locations across the country, where his expertise and reach have helped them make confident real estate decisions. The Industrial Property Team's dedication, professionalism, and results-driven approach continue to set a benchmark in the industrial property sector.

Working with the NAI Ohio Equities Industrial Property Team was a seamless experience from start to finish. Their proactive approach, from coordinating contractors for critical improvements to identifying a tenant that aligned with our timeline, was instrumental in repositioning the property. Their market knowledge and persistence led to a successful lease with Columbus Memorials, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome.

Forrest Passerin, Managing Partner
F5 Facilities
The NAI Ohio Equities Industrial Property Team demonstrated incredible patience, persistence, and market knowledge throughout our transition. Even when our initial sale fell through, they quickly regrouped, brought the property back to market, and secured a qualified buyer. Their efforts ultimately reduced our occupancy costs by 79% and ensured a smooth relocation. We’re grateful for their professionalism and unwavering support.

Hanley Energy
Matt and the Industrial Property Team were instrumental in helping us find the perfect space in the ideal location. Due to the remaining term of our current lease, we also needed to find a tenant to sublease our space. Not only did they successfully find a tenant, but they also negotiated directly with our landlord to arrange a lease buyout on our behalf. The Industrial Property Team maintained excellent communication throughout the entire process, clearly explaining each step along the way.

Curt Berlin has been an invaluable partner in our expansion efforts in Columbus, OH. He played a key role in helping us secure our initial 50,000 sq. ft. facility and later assisted in leasing an additional 48,000 sq. ft. when we needed more space. The initial property was being listed as a lease opportunity, but with his guidance we were able to turn it into a purchase with the previous owners. Curt has a keen sense of the market, understanding not only what properties are available but also their true value. His insight into pricing and negotiations ensured we made smart, strategic decisions. His professionalism, efficiency, and market expertise make him a top-tier real estate professional.

Matt and the Industrial Property Team have been invaluable partners in our growth journey. Four years ago, they helped us find and lease our very first space in Columbus. Now, they’ve guided us through the exciting process of doubling our size and securing a freestanding building for our operations. Their expertise was especially evident when navigating a complex lease buyout with our existing landlord, making what could have been a daunting process seamless and stress-free. We couldn’t have done it without their dedication and professionalism!

NAI (Blake DeCrane, SIOR) are wonderful partners of ours at A Carpenter's Son. They've been a huge help in finding us warehouse/shop space and their follow up and communication is second to none. I'd highly recommend them for any commercial real estate needs.


Mollie Elliot, Lead Buyer
Honda Logistics
We have worked with Curt since 2012 and he has helped negotiate two new leases. Each time he understood our need to be in a specific geographic area and knew there were limited options that would fit our requirement. He completed an extensive search, organized the data, and prepared it so it was easy for me to review. Once a building was chosen, he assisted in the lease negotiation. His market knowledge is invaluable and key to us feeling confident in our decisions. I would be happy to recommend him to anyone with industrial needs in the area.

Ben Struewing, Vice President - Leasing, Sales & Acquisitions
Hackman Capital Partners
The NAI Ohio Equities Industrial Team has done an excellent job for us. After purchasing Southeast Industrial Park, our goal has been to sell the buildings individually. Their team has clearly communicated our objectives to the brokerage community and end users. Through an aggressive marketing effort they have been able to sell 13 of the 18 buildings in the park. We appreciate their determined and honest approach to business.

Dear Curt, As we wrap up our year and begin to think about the calendar year 2016, I would like to again sincerely thank you for your excellent service over the last 17 plus years. Over this period of time, you have represented us with several building acquisitions, both in Ohio and across the country, and with each new project, you have always taken the time to understand our thoughts and negotiate with our interests in mind. Honestly, it is very comforting to work with someone you can trust and who works so hard to achieve the goals we target. I sincerely appreciate the partnership and drive you bring with each new project. Curt, please also know that without question, I would highly recommend you to anyone looking to complete a real estate project anywhere in the country.

Matt Osowski and the Industrial Property Team did a great job assisting us with our expansion into the Columbus, Ohio, Market. We had our sights set on a location but our timing was moved up due to our client’s needs. We found that this space would not be ready in time to meet with our client’s timeline, but Matt and his team adjusted quickly to find us a new property that was able to meet the timing demand. Matt’s market knowledge and ability to adapt helped us secure a great warehouse/distribution facility in Columbus.

James C. Lintrol, EVP
Oscar W. Larson Co
Matt Osowski and his team were very knowledgeable about the market and were able to provide us with all the options possible for our relocation. After several tours, Matt identified a space that was on the market, however, the landlord did not want to split the space to our suitable size. We toured the space and worked diligently with the landlord to find an agreement that worked for both parties. Matt understood our needs and was able to clearly explain the landlord's objective to reach a common ground.

Chris Warren, Director of Operations
Bark Eats
I had the pleasure of working with Matt Osowski and Ohio Equities for the past two months looking for the perfect spot for our growing business/warehouse needs. Not only did Matt go above and beyond in finding the right spot for us but was very patient and honest when it came to what fit best for our business and long-term needs. His knowledge of the Columbus area, overall state of the industry, and advice throughout the negotiation was first class. Matt always made himself available when needed and was very thorough from start to end. Will definitely be referring him and his agency to others looking for a best in class commercial real-estate experience.

Steven Jackson, CEO
Star Leasing Company
The Industrial Property Team from NAI Ohio Equities were great advisors throughout the entire sale/leaseback process. This transaction was unique in that it was a multi-market assignment and closed in the midst of a global pandemic. Despite these challenges, the team was able to help get this deal to the finish line.

Jill Evans, Portfolio Manager
The Meritex Company
I have had the great fortune to work with Matt Osowski as our leasing agent at several properties in Columbus, Ohio. Because of his tenacity, hard work and understanding of our product type and tenants, we achieved 100% occupancy in this market.

Jay Fairfield, Chairman & CEO
HF Group
NAI-OE and Matt Osowski were extremely patient, helpful and determined to find us the right location and landlord for our special project. The unique requirements and specifications for our space meant that the number of available sites were limited, Matt was never deterred in his efforts and I can’t thank him and NAI enough!

Todd Damon, President
Axiom Precision
The exact size building we were seeking, in an ideal location, and nearly-new condition... It was perfect... but everyone else thought so too. It all happened very quickly with many realtors and bidders involved. I'm convinced that any other team would have lost the deal. Instead, we had a signed contract in hand before other buyers even realized, and closed in 28 days! Matt, Curt and the NAI Ohio Equities team played an instrumental role in providing the Axiom Tool Group with our new facility.

Todd Sill, CEO
InnoPak
We were very happy with the Industrial Property Team and the Sale-Leaseback process. It was only 120 days from our initial meeting until the deal was closed. From our financial analysis to negotiation of the Purchase Contract and Lease, the Industrial Property Team guided us seamlessly through the entire process.

We had an excellent experience with NAI Ohio Equities after purchasing three commercial properties. In particular, Matt Osowski went above and beyond in helping us with due diligence and purchase of a building/warehouse that had some issues to resolve. He drove the effort! We look forward to working with him in future sales or purchases.

Kevin O'Conner, Investment Owner
Matthew Osowski acted as a buyer agent for our commercial flex space. As an investor, I appreciated Matt's insight to assure that I did not overlook anything and that I went into the investment with as much information as possible.
