“Your assistance in this process has been invaluable, and I truly appreciate your help. Thank you, Sheryl; I couldn’t have done it without you.”

Lee D. Mackay

Attorney at Law

Nevers Palazzo Packard Wildermuth & Wynner, PC

“Congratulations on closing the transaction. It was a pleasure to work with you on this transaction. Your attention to detail, focus and involvement with the client was impressive and helped make this unique transaction happen and kept it on track to close on time. I was impressed with your various professional relationships that added value and peace of mind to the client.”

Renata Stone, MBA

“I highly recommend working with Sheryl for any tenant-related commercial real estate needs. From my first interaction with her, she was exceptionally impressive. She went through my lease, found several key aspects that could have been negotiated more effectively, and gave me an outstanding analysis of my lease. I cannot stress how important it is to have a lease reviewed by someone like Sheryl. Negotiating on my own would have yielded a higher risk lease with much less favorable terms. Her communication the entire step of the way was no less than five-star customer service.”

Kim Fernstrom

Griffin Lotz & Holzman

“I would like to highly recommend Sheryl Mazirow and her Lease Administration and Management Services to any tenant who finds themselves overwhelmed with a huge, expensive lease document that needs expertise to ensure you are not overpaying your Landlord for rent, OPEX, CAM, parking, etc. After a long-protracted lease negotiation with a corporate Landlord that Sheryl guided us through, she offered her services to administer our Lease and within 2 months of retaining Sheryl, we have already saved thousands of dollars and more than made up for the monthly fee her service costs.
I now have peace of mind that we are paying out and receiving all the services we negotiated for in the lease. 5 Star Rating!!!”

“I wanted to reach out and let you know how much we appreciate all of your efforts and intensity with our lease negotiations and move. As you know, moving a business isn’t for the timid. Your assistance and patience in the process: visiting prospective sites, entering into contentious negotiations, patiently waiting for the opportunity to strike, and your resourceful nature enabled us to negotiate and move to new headquarters, which are spectacular. Many brokers are on our doorstep each week – seeking out the business that you earned and worked hard to achieve an amazing outcome. We highly recommend your services and are pleased to be affiliated with your company.”

“Sheryl has represented me in relocation and lease negotiations many times over the years. I have always been impressed by her professionalism, knowledge of the area, and determination to serve our best interests through countless rounds of negotiations. Sheryl is a consummate professional, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone in need of a tenant representative.”

“Really Great Employee Benefits has leased three offices in our 20+ years of existence. We used Mazirow Commercial for our second and current office space. The first office lease was a nightmare. I wish I would have met Sheryl 6 years earlier. I would never, ever lease office space without Mazirow Commercial on my team. Their tagline says it all. You need an expert on your side to balance things out. 25¢ can cost you thousands over a lease. I recommend Mazirow to everyone I speak with looking for office space.”

“With my new office location, my attitude has definitely improved while driving into work each day. Every day it rains, I am so happy to be able to park just next door to my office. I no longer have to be a gymnast to get my umbrella open and closed without tracking water into the car, and I look forward to the warm-up in the summer knowing that my car’s interior will stay shaded and cool! When a friend mentioned their practice was soon going to be renegotiating their current lease, I instantly told him I had the right person to help him—I should have known he was already a client of Sheryl’s! She certainly has a reach and reputation to be envied.”

“Another success: our 4th lease with Sheryl Mazirow. Mazirow Commercial commands respect as tough negotiators who know the 101 corridor from LA to Ventura like the backs of their hands. They are amazing at finding that perfect fit for all stages of my companies, from entrepreneurial to a growing success.”

Karen L. Gabler

“When we decided to open our own law firm in 2011, my first call was to Mazirow Commercial. Shery Mazirow and Jeff Baum were instrumental in locating and negotiating a lease for our initial location, and within 30 days of my call, we moved into a beautiful new office with outstanding lease terms. Jeff gave us critical information about physical office and lease agreement issues that never would have occurred to us, but which significantly increased our physical comfort as well as our financial security. I simply wouldn’t consider opening, moving, or renegotiating office space without the help of Mazirow Commercial.”

Jeff Marks

“Jeff Baum and Mazirow not only helped us find the perfect home for our company, they negotiated a very good lease. This was not an easy feat since we were a new business with no credit history. And even after the lease was signed, Jeff has been a valuable resource for us when questions arose during the TI build-out and beyond. Mazirow lets us focus on what we do, and leaves what we don’t know, corporate real estate and lease negotiation, in excellent hands. I couldn’t recommend them more.”

Maya Shulman ESQ.

“Mazirow Commercial Inc. is fantastic at what they do. I have worked with Jeff Baum for 8 years, and he is top-notch. He assisted with the lease agreement for my prior and current offices, providing guidance and support throughout the entire process. He made sure I was getting the best deals possible and made sure the agreements were written properly and in my best interest. I highly recommend Mazirow Commercial Inc. for tenant representation and advisory real estate services.”

“We have appreciated your assistance and guidance over the years in connection with our finding and securing a home for Soltman, Levitt, Flaherty & Wattles (SLFW). Your interest in making sure to look for properties having appropriate professional feel and appearance, as well as to our concerns about office space and layout served us well. Moreover, we thank you for your assistance with review and negotiation of proposals, revisions and strategies in arriving at the best possible deal and situation, practically and financially, for the firm.

“I was introduced to Sheryl through a mutual friend and i was intrigued by the prospect that I could do better in leasing terms with the help of a professional. I contacted Sheryl, who was prompt in her response, gave me detailed responses, and provided the information I needed, including things I should have been considering, but had not considered. I retained Sheryl and we quickly negotiated a renewal to my current lease that exceeded anything I was able to get the in past. Sheryl will be my go-to for commercial leasing, as well as a referral source for those I know in similar circumstances.”
