EMHOFF ASSOCIATES, LLC

EMHOFF ASSOCIATES, LLC is a brokerage firm concentrating on office and industrial real estate. Jeff Emhoff, SIOR is the President and brings 20 years of experience to the firm. The focus of our company over the past several years has been to provide the highest level of professional corporate real estate brokerage and advisory services to our clients.

In addition we have provided the same level of quality service to a number of entrepreneurial owners and clients in the local Central New York marketplace.

As a complement to our brokerage services, we provide property management, build-to-suit development and a wide range of consulting support. Our strategic alliance/team approach to real estate projects has led to the successful completion of several developments, design-build-to-suit, brokerage and management assignments.

We have developed an outstanding reputation in the marketplace for hard work, honesty and for producing results.

INDUSTRIAL EXPERIENCE AND CAPABILITIES

Our team has successfully leased or sold millions of square feet of manufacturing and warehousing space in Central New York. Through our affiliation with the SIOR worldwide network, the firm has a vast marketing capability which assures the properties represented by EMHOFF ASSOCIATES are fully exposed to the national and international market place. Our team approach extends to providing listing cooperation with the nation's largest real estate firms including Cushman & Wakefield, CB Richard Ellis, Colliers International, ONCOR, Grubb & Ellis and others.

EMHOFF ASSOCIATES has recently represented Miller Brewing Company in the sale of a 1.3 million square foot brewery in Fulton, New York. Now completed, this sale represents the largest industrial building brokered in Central New York during the 1990's.

OFFICE EXPERIENCE AND CAPABILITIES

Our list of tenant representation clients include: ITT Hartford, Equitable, AT&T, Merrill Lynch, ITT Technical Institute, Prudential, AIG and The American Red Cross. Our tenant representation clients benefit from a thorough process management, which includes extensive market research/knowledge, sophisticated financial analysis, in-depth lease analysis, and strong negotiating skills.

Among the companies we have represented in the disposition or lease of office facilities are: Kraft, Carrier Corporation, Icon International, The Equitable, FFC Hospitality Corp. and CrossKeys Development. Again, our SIOR affiliation and our team/alliance approach give us the strongest possible marketing approach when representing office buildings.

EMHOFF ASSOCIATES AND THE "SIOR" CONNECTION
LOCAL EXPERTISE WITH INTERNATIONAL EXPOSURE

The Society of Industrial and Office Realtors (SIOR) is a worldwide network representing the most knowledgeable and professional brokers in the real estate community. With over 2000 members, SIOR provides EMHOFF ASSOCIATES and it's clients with the ability to expose quality properties to the largest possible market, which increases the opportunity to expedite a sale or lease, without losing the "local expertise" which is so valuable to the corporate owner whose headquarters are located elsewhere.

All of the top full service national brokerage firms including Cushman & Wakefield, CB Richard Ellis, Binswanger, Colliers, Grubb & Ellis, etc. have SIOR members. In cases where the client has an alliance with a national brokerage firm and needs to dispose of a property in our market, we often form a brokerage team with the national brokerage firm by providing the local presence and market expertise required to properly market the real estate asset.

In short, EMHOFF ASSOCIATES assures its clients that their properties will be afforded the most thorough and professional marketing plan available not only locally but with a voice that carries far beyond the Central New York region.
