Testimonials for Bill Falagaris
On behalf of Newalta, I am pleased to offer a full recommendation for the services Bill Falagaris of Barclay Street Real Estate provides to our organization. Newalta is Canada’s leading industrial waste management and environmental services company with 2,000 people and more than 80 facilities. We have been working with Bill since 1989. As we have expanded across the country and increased our corporate workforce in Calgary to service this national network, we have repeatedly required leasing, purchasing and advisory services. Most recently this included Bill obtaining new office space for our corporate workers and leasing out all the redundant space we had accumulated in five other buildings in Calgary’s downtown core, with no trailing liability to Newalta. We are now located in one main office park in the city’s Beltline District, housing all 400 of our corporate personnel. We arrived here in no small part due to Bill’s influence, market knowledge and tenacious attitude over the years. We consider Bill to be extremely professional, independent and capable in representing our interests.
Yours truly,
Craig Wilkie
Executive Vice President,
NEWALTA
I am pleased to provide this letter of reference regarding the office leasing services provided by Bill Falagaris. I have been working with Bill since approximately 1995, leasing vacant space and facilitating renewals of office leases in the many office buildings that I have been involved with over that time in an ownership capacity. Bill has exhibited innovative, sound business practices and judgment in completing lease transactions in our portfolio totalling over 500,000 square feet. In addition, his market knowledge and the tenacious attitude he has displayed over the years has helped to keep buildings, like the HSBC Bank Building, 100% leased over time and, most importantly in today’s challenging market. I consider Bill to be extremely capable, professional and independent when representing our interests. Please contact me if you should have any questions or would like to discuss this reference further.
Sincerely,
Ronald P. Mathison,
Chairman
I am writing this letter to express my satisfaction with the commercial real estate services provided by Barclay Street, and in particular, Eugene Elhady and Bill Falagaris. Our company engaged Barclay Street to help find a suitable office space in downtown Calgary. After an initial meeting in which we explained our requirements, Eugene and Bill were quick to high-grade the potential spaces that would meet our needs. After reviewing multiple spaces, all of which were good options, Eugene and Bill were instrumental in negotiating a superb office lease that fully met our original criterion. Throughout the process, Eugene and Bill were attentive to our needs, timely and professional. We are thankful to have worked with Barclay Street as we are now located in a fantastic space, due in large part to Eugene and Bill’s hard work and dedication.
Sincerely,
Raymond Sully,
Chief Operating Officer
