"Thanks to Tim's hard work and expertise, the transaction for Paris Apartments closed seamlessly, exceeding expectations in every respect. I would wholeheartedly recommend Tim to anyone seeking a commercial real estate broker who brings not only exceptional market knowledge but also the highest standards of professionalism and client service."
"I recently worked with Tim on a closing and was impressed by how well he managed the transaction. He was organized, proactive, and kept communication flowing smoothly between all parties. It’s clear he understands how to keep deals moving and what’s needed to get them closed cleanly. A true professional—I’d welcome the chance to work with him again."
"When we first sat down and talked about selling my apartments, you gave me a price point and a timeline. You were practically spot on with both. We appreciate your help all along the way and look forward to doing more business with you in the future."
We recently acquired a townhome community in Kentucky through a competitive bid process that drew over 20 offers. From start to finish, Tim was an integral part of our success in securing the deal. He had a clear handle on the asset, the market, and the dynamics of the bidding environment.
What stood out to us was how well-organized and proactive Tim was. Tim kept all parties aligned, helped anticipate issues before they became problems, and navigated us through a smooth close despite broader market uncertainty. We’re grateful for his professionalism and preparation.
"I needed a 1031 replacement and was having trouble finding the right fit. Tim brought me a great off-market land deal close to home and helped me get it closed without any hassle. Solid experience all around."
"Tim reached out at just the right time. I had been thinking about selling, and he came prepared with a very thorough analysis of the property and was able to provide a competitive offer within days of our discussion. It wasn't just any buyer-he brought someone capable, serious, and ready to perform.
After weighing the options, we went forward, and the deal closed without a hitch. Tim was sharp, strategic, and focused on getting the right outcome. I'd gladly work with him again."
"Working with Tim was such a positive experience, and he truly made this transaction seamless. He connected us with the best title and lending partners and helped steer the deal all the way through to closing. It’s obvious that Tim has a deep understanding of the real estate business, and we always felt reassured by his guidance. He’s definitely earned his place as a key resource for us, and we’re excited to continue working with him on future deals."
"I’ve had the opportunity to work with Tim on several transactions over the past few years. He brings a thoughtful and business-minded approach to each deal, which is something I genuinely appreciate. Tim understands not only how to market and move real estate but also how to navigate all aspects of a transaction in a way that keeps things progressing.
He’s attentive to details, responsive when it matters, and communicates in a way that makes collaboration easy. It’s clear he respects the process, and that goes a long way in getting deals across the finish line."
"Tim found and won me a deal in a competitive bid environment. Highly recommend."
“Tim VanWingerden is an outstanding commercial broker and a true professional. I had the pleasure of working with him on a deal to purchase a package of 23 duplexes in Lexington, KY, and he exceeded expectations at every turn. His communication was always prompt, he moved quickly when it mattered most, and his ability to navigate the needs of both buyer and seller made the entire process seamless. Tim provides top-notch service and is someone I’d gladly work with again.”
"Tim was the lead broker on a sale/exchange that occurred in 2021. I was the seller of two properties in Louisville, KY. It was a difficult transaction and I was a remote owner of two properties that had been mismanaged. I wasn't the easiest owner to deal with as I had made several mistakes with the properties.
Tim managed the transaction efficiently, including interactions with the resident manager and addressing various issues during the escrow process. I would certainly recommend Tim to any seller or buyer contemplating a transaction."
“This deal took several attempts to get across the finish line, and Tim remained persistent, not losing momentum. On the fourth go, he helped structure a creative financing solution and got us to a close. I appreciated his tenacity to keep working on the deal when others might’ve moved on.”
“Tim was a key part of making this acquisition happen. He was proactive from day one—anticipating questions, addressing issues before they became problems, and staying fully engaged throughout the process.
As the market shifted, Tim helped me think through debt strategies, insurance challenges, and helped me navigate a complicated title related issue. He took the time to understand my position, offered sound advice, and consistently approached the deal from my vantage point. He knows how to communicate, manage expectations, and get deals to the closing table without compromising principles.”
"Buying and selling multi-family requires expertise and nuance. In working with Tim, I appreciated his patience while I first worked through the decision to sell our apartments and then I was grateful for his professional reassurance as we progressed through the steps from pre-listing to post-closing. Tim was an essential part of completing our deal. I have no doubt that without Tim's competent ability to resolve the buyer's and my concerns our deal would have failed. Tim has great interpersonal skills and instincts. It was a pleasure working with him and his team."
“Tim sold my apartment building that I owned for over 45 years and helped me 1031 into a ground lease. He was straightforward from the start and gave me an honest valuation and clear advice on strategy before we listed. Once we launched, he managed every step for me and was available as needed. We ended up with more than ten offers to choose from, and Tim guided me on buyer selection and due diligence. Throughout the process, he kept things on track, setting realistic expectations to both parties. When it came time to reinvest, Tim also helped me identify and close on a 1031 exchange property. I trust Tim’s judgment and couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience.”
"Tim saved the deal with a creative escrow holdback."
