Nothing says more about Guidance’s integrity, follow-through, and results, than the words of our clients.

Doug Crozier

CEO, The Solomon Foundation

Considering all of the curve balls we threw your way, you never wavered, complained or rolled your eyes at us. And in the end your process got us where we needed to be - we saved money and received the needed tenant improvements to make our space function optimally.

Front Range Community College

In your many roles representing the building’s buyer and as the project construction manager, you also took very good care of our needs as a tenant – hearing our concerns and finding the most workable, cost-effective solutions.

Your follow-up and thoroughness were really outstanding! We felt like you were acting as our internal real estate department. You were our advocate and whenever you said you would do something, you delivered.

Jay Kirksey

Vice President - Human Resources, ADT Security Services

ADT Security Services

This project entailed redevelopment of a 129,000 square foot retail center into a regional headquarters and call center for Alert Centre, a national security firm. Fortune 500 Company, ADT Security Services unexpectedly acquired the firm, and decided to move a portion of its home office operations to Denver and expand the monitoring/call center there.

Kerr McGee Corporation

The broker is an extension of my reputation; other brokers were unresponsive or patronizing. I had instant access to Norm, the principal of the company, who was a great mentor and provided the education I needed to be effective in negotiations. He listened and understood my need to provide positive results to management.

Ramsey Fahel

Director of Special Projects, Currently President, Anadarko China

... your thorough understanding of contract language and your patience to sort through all of the fine details and help me understand them was both inspiring and essential to insure our company was making the right decision.

Wolf Electronix

I appreciated that you were able to develop a number of suitable options on fairly short notice, especially after we encountered problems with the tenant trying to sublease their space in Gunbarrel. When these negotiations stalled, you were quickly able to develop a number of alternative options (and) you negotiated a lease with very favorable rates and terms.

Jim Trent Sr.

CEO, Wolf Electronix

Thank you for your professionalism and patience...finding an appropriate site which best represented our company's image and location needs was a lengthy challenge for all of us, and for which I feel we could have not accomplished without your market knowledge and contacts.

Your strategies were effective, your advice was sound and your expertise lent credibility to our project. Your reputation and professional approach gave us access to top-notch architects (and) general contractors.

Mia and Bob Jasper

Principals, The Paradigm Health Club

The Paradigm Health Club

We were initially engaged by the principals of The Paradigm Health Club to help them locate and lease a facility for their planned athletic club to be located in Louisville, Colorado. The facility requirements were challenging: a special-use building with large amounts of parking, high ceilings, heavy HVAC and specialized interior build-out, and the potential club location was critical because visibility and accessibility were key issues

Prima Energy Corporation

In less than two months they located our space, aided in negotiating the lease and made sure that the necessary build-out was completed in time to accommodate our move-in date.

Dick Lewis

President, Prima Energy Corporation

We met with Prima Energy for the first time on September 1st. They had a 90-day deadline to expand or relocate, and we helped them relocate to their new offices by December 1st.

...Norm DeHart (has) provided impeccable service in the real estate arena for both Pearl Izumi and Rodeer Systems...very responsive to our needs, and very familiar with the different markets in the various cities...consistent, cooperative, and extremely motivated in helping us achieve the real estate goals of the organization.

Gateway Funding Diversified Mortgage Services

Norm educated me on the first call. He did a good job describing the different kinds of brokers. I did not know about tenant reps.

Deborah Salazar

You present with integrity.  I trust you not to get me into a bad situation with a difficult landlord.

Stride & Associates, Inc.

As a newcomer to the area, Stride benefited greatly from (their) knowledge of the local business landscape, understanding of the current business climate and facility at identifying appropriate properties to consider. The last of these points came from their ability to listen. They took the time to understand my views on what would be important to Stride in not just selecting a site, but in succeeding in a given location.
