Success Stories

“We are personally grateful to Kyle and IronVest for helping us find our next space. When we first met Kyle, I promised him we were “easy clients” – I know I broke that promise (sorry Kyle). He was patient and did an excellent job walking us through different options, helping us understand the market, and facilitating the conversation with the owner, construction company, and everyone else involved.”

“At RaceTrac, we recently closed on a property in Milton, Florida, after evaluating nine different sites across the trade area. Sims was a key partner throughout the entire process. His persistence, market knowledge, and commitment to our goals were evident every step of the way. Sims navigated multiple challenges with professionalism and always kept the process moving forward. He was responsive, solution-driven, and never lost sight of what we were trying to achieve. Thanks to his efforts, we secured the right site in a competitive and evolving market. We’re grateful for his partnership and look forward to working with him on future projects.”

“I first met Shepard in 2018 when Birmingham became a market of interest for us. It took very little time for me to realize Shepard’s level of expertise in the urban market, but more importantly, the off-market which ultimately uncovered multiple development opportunities. What impressed me most about Shepard is his determination to provide value and customer service. Whenever I had a need or if an issue came up, Shepard was quick to address it to ensure things kept moving forward. I have no doubt we will continue to work together moving forward.”
