O.M.

Business Owner, Winnipeg, MB

Thank you so much for taking on my complicated situation and for seeing me through until the end. I really appreciated your (Dino Alevizos) efforts, patience and support.

E.G.

Property Owner, Winnipeg, MB

I want to thank Mark Scaletta and Rob Scaletta for doing such an outstanding job on handling the sale of our property. We made our decisions based on their expertise and it was smooth sailing after that. They kept us in the loop regularly and before long we had multiple offers and negotiated a sale. I am impressed with their knowledge and professionalism in handling our listing.

D.R.

Investor, Winnipeg, MB

I would like to sincerely thank the entire Shindico team for your many years of service. Over the last eight years that I have been involved I have appreciated your professional management; I have never had to worry about our building, it has always looked well cared for and the tenants appear to have been very happy. Your work to add additional tenants and all the related improvements have added substantial value to the property and were most certainly critical in the purchaser’s decision to make a serious offer.

M.M.

Owner, Pocca Poca, Winnipeg, MB

I sincerely appreciate all the support you have extended to us over the years. Your diligence, dedication, and professionalism made all our interactions productive and positive.

I.C.

Institutional Investor, Winnipeg, MB

Shindico has been our trusted partner for over 25 years, managing one of our key retail properties with excellence and expertise. They have consistently delivered superior returns on our investment, while redeveloping and repositioning the asset to meet the changing market demands. The property has always been maintained in impeccable condition, reflecting Shindico’s high standards and professionalism. We are proud to work with Shindico and highly recommend their services.

Real Estate Broker, Denver, CO

You (Sandy Shindleman) are one of my true heroes in the industry. You have helped tens of thousands of agents improve their lives through your teaching. Your skills as a broker/developer have enhanced every market you have entered.

M.G.

Property Owner, Winnipeg, MB

Mark Scaletta has been the best agent that we have worked with. His aptitude to learn is tremendous and he has a relentless work ethic. He has creative solutions to get deals done and I could not have asked for a better person to work with. He has tremendous integrity and will always portray his thoughts on a deal, regardless of whether it will help him.

Bambini Montessori Preschool Inc., Winnipeg, MB

We'd like to commend Joey Bechard. It was a Saturday night and there was a water leak in our neighboring unit and the water made its way to our unit. Within minutes, Joey called us on our cellphones to get more details on the situation. He made his way to the premises right away and arranged a restoration company to come and dry the damaged area that night itself. Had he not done that, we would not have been able to open for business on Monday. We really appreciated his help with the situation and cannot thank him enough.

C.L.

Avant Insurance Brokers, Winnipeg, MB

I have been really impressed with the way Shindico has responded proactively. It makes us comfortable to be dealing with such a well-run company.

S.S.

Thrive Counselling, Winnipeg, MB

Shindico provided a constant source of information with this experience that was brand new for us. They followed up or returned messages promptly and were there every step of the way, which was a great feeling of support. Thank you again for everything it's been such a positive experience working with you.

A.N.

Medical Clinic & Pharmacy, Winnipeg, MB

Harry DeLeeuw did amazing work to finalize our deal and I have hard time to find the right words to describe all the hard work he did. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and provided guidance every time we needed his advice. His honesty and integrity are beyond limits and by the end, he saved me lots of money. Thank you a million!

L.C.

Property Owner, Winnipeg, MB

Dino Alevizos & Michael Stronger did a fantastic job selling our commercial building. I must say they are "outstanding" in how they handle opportunities.

Pet Valu, Winnipeg, MB

We are pleased with the property management team; it is like night and day compared to other locations we have been in. We always get great response and follow up to our requests.

B.W.

Family Office, Winnipeg, MB

I appreciate the amount of thought and work that has been done in the redevelopment of our property. A remarkable change! I believe the new store front will now make our second-floor space, which we thought of as just excess space, very profitable. I am proud to drive by and say I am an owner.

K.W.

McPhillips Chiropractic, Winnipeg, MB

It is very nice to see how proactive the exterior renovation updates and timelines are being communicated. Rarely do we see this so well-orchestrated, and many projects and owners could learn a lot by following your examples and steps.

Dr. A.A.

Clarity Vision Centre, Winnipeg, MB

Thank you for finding us such a great spot. After doing many real estate transactions with my small development firm, I would say you have been the best to deal with.

S.L.

Long & McQuade, Winnipeg, MB

Long & McQuade was anxious to relocate our Winnipeg South location, wanting to transition from a lease to an ownership position. We acquired some land but after 18 months of work became entangled in some unfortunate development issues. I called Sandy Shindleman and over the next week we negotiated a deal and transformed an old stock commercial building on South Pembina into the nicest music instrument retail store in Canada, maybe even North America. Thank you to Sandy and Shindico for helping us get from there to here!

J.C.

Long & McQuade, Winnipeg, MB

Our company began looking for an ownership position and soon ran into many roadblocks from a development standpoint. We reached out to Sandy Shindleman. A phone call and a week later we found a building and location that exceeded all our expectations. Thank you, Sandy and the entire Shindico team! You truly live by your mission statement and are passionate about helping others succeed!

S.C.

J&R Tile, Winnipeg, MB

We used Dino Alevizos for the purchase of our land and building. Dino has quickly become someone that we can trust and rely on for industry knowledge. We were so impressed with how he handled the purchase transaction that we hired him to pre-lease our building before construction. Amazingly enough, Dino found us the right tenant for our space within 30 days. We are truly impressed with both his professionalism and knowledge.

K.B.

Staples, Richmond Hill, ON

Thanks for being one of my favorite landlords! Your efficiency and fast response are amazing. We genuinely appreciate it!

G.F.

Maple Leaf Construction Ltd., Winnipeg, MB

Having worked with Shindico for more than 35 years, we have built a strong relationship through the vast number of projects we have collaborated on, ranging from maintenance work to full site development. We have always appreciated that our key to success has been by working together and trusting each other’s integrity and values. We believe that Shindico fully stands behind and lives by their motto of “Succeeding by Helping Others Succeed.”, because it has allowed Maple Leaf Construction to Succeed.

A.M.

Artis REIT, Winnipeg, MB

Shindico Realty acted as advisors for a major real estate transaction in Downtown Winnipeg. They demonstrated that an existing property with sub-par revenues and significant physical deficiencies could be overcome with a market-oriented strategy involving a multi-year plan of capital expenditures and market rent adjustments. After four years, we can confirm that the expectations set by Shindico and ourselves have become reality, we both came out as winners here.

R.B.

Sobeys, Winnipeg, MB

I am pleased to be able to advise that Shindico Inc. have been our preferred developer, particularly throughout Manitoba, over the last fifteen years. Their track record has been excellent, and their performance has been exceptional. We have always been pleased with the quality of their construction and their follow-up.

N.B.

Restaurant Owner/Operator, Winnipeg, MB

We have received excellent representation from all parts of the Shindico team. This month, however, we have received what I can only describe what is 'above and beyond' from all aspects of your company with everyone working hard to keep us in business at Polo Park. After almost 25 years in business, I can't remember seeing such a consistent theme of excellence in one company, and only hope we can create the same spirit of commitment in our own.

D.S.

Real Estate Owner, Winnipeg, MB

Shindico provides the three things which I require for managing my assets: (1) unimpeachable ethics, (2) best in class technical professionalism, and (3) nice people.

R.E.

Boston Pizza, Winnipeg, MB

The Shindico properties in which we are a tenant are extremely well maintained and managed. We need our properties to be first class and Shindico delivers.

B.G.

Real Estate Owner/Investor, Winnipeg, MB

Shindico took on management of our old property, planned, coordinated, and saw through a complete building rehabilitation, resulting in a secure future and increased value for the long term. It was done professionally, on schedule and under-budget.

H.F.

Investor, Winnipeg, MB

For over 30 years the Shindlemans and Shindico have provided asset management, investment sourcing and management services to our family office. The service has been first rate, the results stellar and we look forward to continuing our relationship with the Shindlemans and their great team at Shindico. We greatly value the relationship we have.

We rely heavily on their understanding and knowledge and find them to be a wonderful business partner from site selection to open.I would highly recommend them to anyone who has a real estate requirement.

I have dealt with the Shindico group for many years and have found the entire group to be extremely professional in all respects. They have a thorough understanding of their markets and have been most accommodating when it comes to making our building layout work keeping in mind the functionality of both our business and shopping centre. A pleasure to do business with.

Shindico has been a great asset to us, ensuring a great entry into the Winnipeg market and continuing to support our expansion throughout Manitoba. Their market knowledge and dedication are unparalleled.

Whether it is on the Real Estate consultant-broker side, in exploring new market opportunities, or on the tenant-landlord side between us and Shindico - we can expect Shindico to consistently deliver professional and responsive results in all aspects of real estate service.

Shindico provided outstanding strategic advice and execution of our store expansion in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Their expertise in zoning and land assembly projects was invaluable to the achievement of the program.

R.F.

Home Depot, Toronto, ON

I have had many dealings with Shindico and their senior management team over the years, whether it be on new development projects or the management of existing assets. The Shindico team has always impressed me with their knowledge of the markets and their ability to quickly and economically execute on a deal or task. I would not hesitate in recommending the Shindico team to any retailer looking to better understand a market and expand their store base.
