Property Management
Tuscany Realty Group is a well-established company that takes property management to a new level of service. Building owners that are busy with other endeavors quickly find that we are easy to work with, honest and on top of our game. We have a proven track record of managing the day-to-day operations of shopping centers, office buildings, and industrial space. More importantly, we spend a lot of time finding tenants, collecting rent, paying bills and dispersing funds to Landlords.
Property Management is hard work.
We realize this and take it on with enthusiasm for our clients and tenants. There is a lot said for giving superior service to everyone asking for and demanding perfection.
As a former commercial developer, we understand what it takes to properly manage a property. We run comps, interview current tenants, make recommendations to owners that will help turn around or lease up a property. We constantly strive to think outside of the box to help our clients maintain current tenants but also make the property appealing to new tenants. We understand and employ the art of negotiation to reach a middle ground between Owners and Tenants.
Our advertising is unsurpassed by even the largest companies. We use state-of-the-art advertising to reach tenants of all sizes and regularly research companies to find lease expirations and contact them directly to see if there might be a fit in the building that we manage for you.
Like any business, we have people to market, manage and run accounting. We take the business seriously and our current clients think we go above and beyond the call to satisfy them. What else do you need in a property management company? We are the best of the best. Call us for an appointment, we will meet with you and lay out a marketing and management plan for your review. It doesn’t cost a dime to call us and you could be losing thousands of dollars trying to manage a property yourself or with another company that doesn’t have the experience that we have.
We look forward to hearing from you.

Consulting Services
Prepare for Sale of the Business – You have worked hard to build your business and now you want to sell it. Will you get fair value for your efforts? Determining the value of a business is often the first step in the process of selling a business. But it shouldn’t stop there. If your business has multiple segments do you understand how much profit is being contributed by each of these segments? This is a very important element of the strategy of selling your business. We can help you analyze your business to maximize its value. We can also identify sources of value and areas of your business that can be improved. For example, does the business have excess assets that can be sold before the sale of the business without impacting the value of the business?
Retirement/Exit Strategy Planning– Most business owners do not plan ahead for the time when they will decide to sell their business. Often when they make up their mind to sell, the business isn’t worth what they had hoped. Don’t wait until a few months before you plan to retire to plan your exit strategy. Your succession planning should begin well in advance of your planned exit from the business. Your planning should actually begin on day one! A formal plan for the transfer of ownership should be high on your priorities. Don’t leave your spouse or heirs in the position of having to make the biggest business/financial decision of their lives without a comprehensive plan.
Cash Flow Problems– Probably the number one reason for businesses needing assistance. Counter to many people’s intuition, a growing business normally requires more cash than a dying business so there is no shame in asking for help.
Obtaining Loans & Financing– Applying for bank loans or financing for your business can be frustrating and time-consuming. Through our preferred partner program we have Commercial Loan Consultants who work with you to navigate the SBA, Patriot Express or Conventional.
Loan Processes
Declining Sales/Profits– A common issue in these difficult times. Many companies are seeing higher prices for raw materials and labor at the same time as customers are resisting any price increases. We can help you develop and implement a strategy to return the profitability to your company.
The Desire to Grow the Business– We can help you analyze your business to determine which segment of your business is the most profitable and thereby determine the best and most profitable path to growth. We can develop a Sales and Marketing plan. We can even help you get your company listed as a vendor to the Federal Government under the Small
Business Set-Aside Program
Employee Issues– Are you running your business or is your business running you? How do you motivate employees so that they become self-managing and self-directing work teams with their goals aligned with yours? We have experience developing Employee Motivation Plans for hundreds of companies.
Interim Management– We have experienced managers and contacts in many different industries. We can help you with interim management whether it is to fill a short-term need or for an employee illness or for a longer-term need such as while you search for a candidate to fill a permanent position.
Lower Margins/ Increased Competition– Are your margins being squeezed by your customers or your competition? Are your competitors outsourcing overseas? Are there more competitors moving into your business.
Strategic Planning/Business Plan Development– As the old phrase goes “If you don’t know where you’re going it doesn’t matter how you get there.” Every business needs a plan and, increasingly, lenders require a business plan prior to approving a business loan or a credit line. Every company should have a Strategic Plan that is reviewed regularly. Our consultant can help you develop a plan including performing relevant market research for your industry in your marketplace.
Intermediary Services
Why use an Intermediary?
The business owner is an expert at running the business but may not be as knowledgeable about the selling process. An intermediary can assist the business owner to reach their goals of a successful transaction.
Negotiator – Procrastination and delay are critical factors when structuring a deal. Therefore, a business broker will continually move the process forward with qualified buyers, financing resources, and ancillary associations to the deal such as CPAs and attorneys. a business broker is in a better position to perform this function than the owner as he/she is focused on the life cycle of the deal. The owner will be allowed to focus on operating a profitable business.
Advisor – As an intermediary, a business broker will provide the business owner with strategic information regarding market timing, market conditions, market price, financing options, structuring the transaction and other information that is advantageous to the owner’s resources.
Facilitator – Selling a business is often emotional for the business owner. An intermediary will act on behalf of the owner and will establish a strong negotiating position without compromising the goodwill and relationship between the principal parties. An intermediary will increase the opportunity to receive “the best price” for the business.
Resources – A business broker is a skilled professional in the mergers and acquisitions world and has established relationships with many professional organizations which are required to complete the transfer of ownership. These relationships will prove to be extremely beneficial to the business owner and the buyers.
Confidentiality – An owner could experience disastrous results by“leaking” that the business is for sale. Employees, customers, suppliers and competitors’relationships could be damaged causing an adverse condition hurting the potential sale. A business broker will preserve the confidentiality of the selling company during the process of marketing the business and only share information on a “need to know” basis.

Mergers & Acquisitions
If the buyer of your business is likely to be another company or a private equity group, then our Mergers & Acquisitions (M & A) Division can be of most help to you. Most of these buyers have people with significant experience acquiring privately-held companies such as yours. Having our M & A Division on your side helps steady the negotiating table and levels the playing field.
Wealthy Individual Buyers– Many wealthy individuals band loosely together with others to form what appears similar to the organized private equity groups. Many wealthy individuals bring significant management skills as well as access to capital beyond their own financial capacity. Most are interested in making investments in privately-held businesses such as yours and being involved at the board level to help the company with financing, strategy, and marketing issues. They frequently have significant experience acquiring businesses. Having our Mergers & Acquisitions Division involved helps you level the playing field.
Corporate Buyers– In addition to the many corporate buyers who maintain contact with our Business Mergers and Acquisitions Division, we bring you the training and experience to know how to identify other corporate buyers who may be interested in acquiring your business. We know how to make confidential inquiries to corporate buyers without disclosing your company’s identity.
Our experience leads us to believe an auction process does not maintain the confidentiality most sellers like yourself desire. It can reduce the implicit value of your company if so many buyers look at your business that it becomes over-shopped. We prefer to help even the most jaded corporate buyer discover the untouched diamond in your business. Only experienced business mergers and acquisitions experts can accomplish this in an effective manner.
Although most corporate buyers are interested only in purchasing 100% of businesses such as yours, some are interested in forming strategic alliances that may also involve an equity investment with a formula agreed to in advance which allows them to purchase 100% at a later time. Our Business Mergers & Acquisitions Division can help you make contact and negotiate a strategic alliance.
Private Equity Groups – Our Mergers and Acquisition (M & A) Division is focused upon companies with revenues from $2.5 Million to $100 Million. They are the business brokers who maintain contact with the hundreds of Private Equity Groups who have raised many millions of dollars from pension funds and institutional investors for the sole purpose of investing in privately-held businesses such as yours. In addition to looking for Platform Companies that fit their published investment strategies, they are also looking for add-on acquisitions for the companies already in their portfolio. While many of the Private Equity Groups may have raised several hundred million in capital, some have raised billions and eclipse some “Fortune 500” companies in size.
Although many Private Equity Groups are primarily interested in purchasing 100% of companies, some also make recapitalization investments where the present owner sells only a portion of their stock and remains as top management of the company with a planned future retirement. This allows you to take some cash out of your business now and sell the balance of your ownership when you retire.
