Testimonials

M.H. Eby, Inc

I found Joe Menninger from Ohio Equities when I asked my attorney here in Pennsylvania to ask around and find me the best guy in Columbus. Joe was the name that kept coming up and after doing a deal together, I’d recommend him to anyone. Joe stays on the hunt and follows up until he helps you find the right place…and the right deal for your business. Professional, responsive and well connected to everyone in the area. Use Ohio Equities if you’re in the market!

Travis Eby, President

Columbus Glass and Mirror

Joe Menninger and his team did an outstanding job from the sale of our building to finding a suitable building to lease for the development of our business. Joe completely understood all the language necessary to help us navigate through legalese which allowed us to concentrate on both the sale, and move allowing us to maintain operations seamlessly. Thank you for the hard work you put into this for us, Joe and Mark!

Right Way Medical

Joe and Mark did a fantastic job identifying a new facility for our move. They brought the opportunity to us. Columbus is a very competitive market for flex space today. They brought to our attention a unit that was hours from hitting the market and allowed us to get out ahead of the availability. The deal went smooth and the space was perfect for our needs. We loved working with them through the process. They followed up the entire time, even post occupancy. Great work.

Josh Prati, President and CEO

Murray Material Handling

We are a small family-owned company and were given a tight timeline to relocate our Columbus location. Occupancy rates were fairly high at the time, so the search was limited from the start. Joe asked a lot of questions about our business to learn what our needs were, both now and in the future, so we were able to see several properties meeting our criteria in a short period of time. As we expanded our search from leasing only to possible purchase, Joe’s experience really paid off, as we had never been down that road before. He was always available by phone or email to answer questions and guide us through the process, and he provided great referrals for both the financing and our plumbing upgrades once the purchase was complete.

Our new property has more square feet than we needed, so we’ve been able to lease out a portion of it as well. Joe has also assisted with that process, and he continues to be a good sounding board as we grow into this building. If & when the time comes to find a new property, I won’t hesitate to contact Joe again and utilize his knowledge, experience, and professionalism.

Joe is both a friend and our realtor. He was amazing to work with and was great at getting at the true purpose of what our business needed in a space. He was thoughtful in what we were able to see and made the whole process feel transparent and thorough. We hope to have the growth that allows us to work together again soon!
