More testimonials for Steven Josovitz

Steve, I just wanted to write a note to thank you for all your help. I was in a terrible situation and you came up with an amazing performance. I never thought my problem would get solved, but you came up with a solution that stopped the losses and was a big winner for the buyer. I want to thank you for all the support you gave me through the process. I really appreciate how you took a personal interest in me and worked tirelessly for what was, let’s face it, not that big of a fee. Thanks again for your help. If anyone ever needs a reference, please use me.

Steve provided an excellent selling experience. His high energy and aggressive style complimented by a focused and efficient marketing plan produced great results. Steve’s passion, experience and shear determination set him apart from other brokers.

Thanks for the Kudos, but I must confess that you put forward a good listing that was fairly priced and which we were able to easily qualify. There are two sides to the equation – I appreciate the straightforward, no nonsense approach to getting managing the seller and getting the deal sealed. If we all did this – we would get a lot more deals done. I too hope we have the opportunity to do more deals together. Best regards.

Hi Steve – I want to thank you once again for securing a Tenant for the Sunset Grille property in Covington, Georgia. As you know the Landlord needed to get someone in there quickly. As soon as he told me that the existing Tenant was struggling and on the verge of leaving I knew there was only one Broker that could help find a qualified, experienced restaurant operator quickly—–Steve Josovitz.
You can count on additional referrals from me in the future. Best Regards.

My experience with Steve Josovitz and The Shumacher Group was very positive. My group leased a space that he was listing and he and his firm really added value thanks to their high level of industry knowledge. I am also impressed with the amount of repeat business that he and his firm have generated. Clearly, they are doing something very right.

I had the pleasure of working on three previous occasions with Mr. Steven Josovitz, and was impressed with his level of integrity, as well as with the timely manner in which he expedited our business transactions. I am looking forward to conducting our fourth business transaction with him.

We purchased our first restaurant in the Atlanta area with The Shumacher Group and were thrilled with the services of Steve Josovitz through the entire undertaking. It’s quite refreshing to still be able to do business with people of integrity and talent who are able to empathize with their Client’s needs.

I will keep this praise short and sweet, just like the multiple deals I have done with Steve Josovitz. Although Steve is a very busy man, he always finds time to accommodate my schedule to do property showings and carry out due diligence. It has always been a fast, smooth process from my decision to obtain a specific property till the time the acquisition is actually completed. On the occasion where there was much red tape to get through to obtain a property, the Shumacher Group fought in the best interest of all parties involved to reach a fair and fast settlement and transaction. Steve Josovitz and the Shumacher Group perform and deliver with the utmost integrity and professionalism. Finally, what i appreciate most about Steve Josovitz is that although he is a big dog at a big company with big clients, he took me on when i was a small “nobody” and showed me the courtesy of respect and now that I am “somebody” I acknowledge and appreciate his role in my evolution.

It was good working with you again with the purchase of Agnes & Muriels Restaurant. Can you believe it was 1999 when I bought Goldberg’s Bagel and Deli Co. with you? Keep up the good work. Sincerely,

Just wanted to let you know how much I really do appreciate all of your help! Of course you were definitely trying to make the sale, but it seemed as if you were more like a social worker trying to find a good home for a child that was up for adoption. You really cared about the business and wanted to make sure that I was right for it and it was right for me. I am not sure if I bought the restaurant or adopted it!
There were a couple of times when I had my doubts if we could work out the deal, and that’s when you really earned your keep. “Calm” is probably not a word that is usually used in the same sentence with your name, but when I was getting stressed with the details, you kept me calm and helped me get through all the hurdles. Efficient, professional -and certainly one of a kind-you win my award for best deal-maker in the business!
I hope you will stay in touch and visit us often at Voila! All my best,
Donna Ruppert

Thank you so very much for all you did.You really went out on the limb for me and I greatly appreciate that regarding the termination..I know the only reason I got the termination was due to your strong contacts.You more than earned your commission for this task alone, and both my husband and I are grateful and would only, only use you again to sell any of our businesses.We hope to grow alot and then one day, let you sell it all.You are the best in your field and it pays to use the best! I was going through a very stressful time due to my Mother’s illness and knowing I had you working with the landlord and protecting our interest was very important to us. Thanks again.

Steve Josovitz at The Shumacher Group was the only Restaurant Broker we would trust to sell DuPree’s that we have owned and operated in Midtown for over fifteen years. He had Buyers from the first day and we closed just weeks later. There is no other Broker we know that has such incredible follow through, honesty and integrity and really shows a 100% commitment to his Buyers and Sellers. Amazing!!!
John DuPree

Thank you for your help in the sale of my restaurants over the last couple of years. Because of your experience and contacts you were able to bring qualified buyers to the table. Steve Josovitz had a natural ability to ‘close’ the deal. It must be that New York charm. When you needed to be in action…you were in action.

We have had the pleasure of dealing with Steve Josovitz while trying to locate a restaurant to lease after after relocating from the Cayman Islands to Atlanta. We found Steve to be very knowledeable about Atlanta and particulary its resturant industry. He was very professional in aiding us with lease negotiations and even helped us find a very competent attorney. Steve is well versed in all areas of the restaurant real estate market and should succeed on every level.
