Vice President, Healthy Learning Academy
Dear Todd,
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your help in acquiring the property at the Jockey Club for our charter school. Your professionalism and courtesy went above and beyond. Every time we met a roadblock in the process you were there to help guide us in the right direction. Who knew when we started it would take almost 6 months to go from contract to closing! Again I would like to thank you from our entire board at Healthy Learning Academy for your hard work and dedication. Without your knowledge and countless hours of work we would have never been able to realize our dream of owning our own building. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your services as a realtor to anyone looking to purchase or sell commercial property in the Alachua County area.

Perry Pursell served as our recent liaison to lease our 10,000 square foot warehouse with offices, and to help us find suitable quarters to move our publishing business. Perry originally helped us locate the land on which our now-leased building stands; and in fact, that past quality-professional history with us was the reason we approached him again. As always, he is honest, hard-working, and a good listener. He is a knowledgeable advocate and advisor who enjoys an excellent reputation. I heartily recommend him for Realtor services.

It would have been easier to choose all 7 of the listed character attributes (great results, personable, expert, good value, on time, high integrity and creative) that best describe Beau than to narrow the selection down to only three of the listed attributes (personable, expert, and creative) because Beau clearly processes all seven attributes. I met Beau 11 years ago when he was in school and working as a rental agent at a local residential apartment community. I thought then that Beau’s big and bright ideas would be brought down to reality once he completed his education and got into the “real” world. Well I was wrong. Beau has turned his big and bright ideas into reality through his tireless dedication to his profession and his drive for success and perfection. I have been and continue to be very impressed with Beau’s work ethic, gain in knowledge, contribution to the profession, dedication to make a difference, his attention to the long-term components, and the personal/professional growth that has come from allot of effort and hard work. Beau has earned each and every acronym title that follows his name and in the process is the poster person for each of the institutions he represents. I am glad to know Beau and more so to call him a friend and colleague.

I had a great experience working with Rick Cain to find the right warehouse space for our company. Rick provided a lot of options and showed me about a dozen different properties in and around Gainesville. We eventually found a property that has a great location and should fit our needs for the next several years. He negotiated a good deal that kept us within budget. Rick and his team served us very well and I would recommend him to others.

I cannot state strongly enough how wonderful it was to work with Beau Beery and Coldwell Banker MM Parish. The property that I needed to sell was in poor condition and had many surprising glitches along the way that made it very difficult to sell. Beau marketed the property incredibly well and he definitely went the extra mile to get the most we possibly could out of the sale. I would highly recommend he and his firm as they were aggressive, easy to work with, and respectful in all their dealings.

Congratulations on the great article and recognition you received in the Gainesville Sun article. You have always been a person of high standards and have conducted yourself both is business and personal life as a true gentleman. You are a good example of the quote “Character is the basis for happiness and happiness is the sanction of character”.

I would like to convey my thoughts on Rick Cain. Rick is the most knowledgeable realtor that I have ever had contact with in the Gainesville area. Rick is truly a credit to his profession. He worked diligently through negotiations and was extremely effective in brokering a deal that was mutually beneficial to my company and the property owners. I believe Rick is a true professional. This was a process that took nearly a year and in my opinion, most people in his position would have moved on or walked away over time. He has been of further help to me even after the deals completion with additional items. Now that’s service to the clients. I would be foolish of me not to use Rick’s services in the future.

President, Crossman & Company
Beau is one of the best brokers in the state. He is hard working, intelligent, and client focused. I highly recommend him.

Todd, hat tip to you in that I did make sure before we decided on this office condo that she meet in person or over the phone with all of the top commercial realtors and the funny thing is …..dressed in flip flops you blew them away! Your follow up/follow through is great as well as your succinctness. This means a lot to me because when it comes time in the near future for me to pull the trigger on some commercial stuff I just have to make a simple phone call!

I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for the swift and efficient efforts of Perry Pursell to locate and then execute the agreements with a suitable tenant for our location in Gainesville. Perry was well aware of the desperate and costly situation we were in and when contacted by me took immediate action and completed the process in an outstanding 30 days time. We at Hotdog-Opolis will always be grateful to Perry Pursell, he is consummate professional.
Timothy Becker, CCIM
Director, University of Florida Bergstrom Center for Real Estate Studies
Beau Beery is a true professional in the commercial real estate industry. His dedication and commitment is unparalleled not only to his clients but to the causes that he supports. He is a tremendous asset to the Bergstrom Center for Real Estates Studies and Nathan S. Collier Master of Science in Real Estate Program. Beau constantly goes above and beyond to mentor, teach, and support our students. Additionally, he has provided great leadership in organizing and hosting regional events on behalf of the Bergstrom Center that continue to be the talk of the state. I would highly recommend Beau Beery as both you and your organization will be better off because of his participation and service.

The board of Healthy Learning Academy would like to thank Todd for his ongoing assistance throughout the several months it took for us to purchase the Jockey Club building for our school. His knowledge, patience and guidance, not to mention the time he spent, have all been so helpful and encouraging, especially when we kept coming up against new requirements, discoveries and issues. He was there every step of the way and we truly appreciate his professional support. Our board can certainly feel comfortable recommending Todd as a skilled realtor to others seeking to buy or sell commercial property.

I am pleased to offer this recommendation on behalf of Beau Beery. In my opinion, Beau is the ‘Go-To’ person for the marketing of commercial property. Objectively, his CCIM designation and MSRE degree well-qualify him to understand the business, regulatory, and legal issues concerning real estate development and transactions. Beau has the strongest “second nature” marketing sense I have yet observed. He is a master of business communications and thoughtful networking, and I learn from him about these matters every day. Beau is quickly becoming the “dean” of the local commercial real estate community, and with the passage of time I fully expect his reputation will expand throughout the region and the entire state of Florida.

It was a great pleasure working with you Rick on my companies lease contract. You were very professional and always very attentive to my needs and requests as there were many. I will use you in the future and refer you to all my colleagues and friends. Thank you once again for all your help during this process.
Patrick Hagen
Business Development Manager, The Entrust Group
I’ve known Beau both personally and professionally for six years. I’ve always been very impressed with his professionalism and his drive. I’ve also been impressed with the professional presence he has developed in the Gainesville real estate community.
I moved from Gainesville to St. Louis in the spring of 2012 to open an office of The Entrust Group. My clients buy and sell real estate through their IRA/401(k) and as a result I network with a lot of real estate professionals. As I began building my business in St. Louis I thought to myself, “I need to find the Beau Beery of St. Louis”. In my mind Beau is the model for a well-connected, proficient, successful commercial real estate professional. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a commercial Realtor in the Gainesville market.

Rick Cain, I would like to thank you for your tremendous help in advising me at every step of the way for my purchase of just the right property in Gainesville, FL last December. My goal was to buy the property before year’s end, and my first trip to Gainesville was December 10th. You were great at showing me properties which were in the ballpark, we efficiently narrowed it down to two properties, and we closed on the perfect fit on December 31st. If anyone needs professional, prompt and pleasant service in the Gainesville area, they will be very happy working with you.
Tracy Ross
Assistant Commercial Property Manager, AMJ Inc. of Gainesville
I have had the distinct pleasure of working directly with Beau each and every day for just over a year now. I can honestly say that I have never worked with someone I respected as much as I do Beau. The words “hard” and “can’t” do not exist in his vocabulary. He is thoughtful, genuine and full of integrity. There aren’t many subjects he doesn’t know about because he constantly quenches his thirst for knowledge. He has embraced technology and is fearless when it comes to hard work. There’s not a single recommendation of him that is exaggerated or enhanced in the least bit. His clients, colleagues, co-workers and friends will all agree that he is resourceful, dedicated, reliable and professional. His energy is contagious, and his contributions to the industry are unmatchable. What impresses me most is that he measures his success on the successes of others he helps. Beau’s work ethic makes my job pretty easy and more importantly satisfying. I foresee a long and mutually beneficial future for the both of us.
