“Our deals would not have been completed so smoothly without the contributions of REAG. We’ve been with them for some time and what sets them apart is Jaclyn’s ability to develop and manage new relationships with sellers and Scott’s ability to navigate roadblocks that would otherwise jeopardize a deal. They have been fantastic to work with.”
