- "I want to express my, and Dave Goetz’s, appreciation for the good work done by Mike Luca and David Ross on our most recent transaction. From the effective marketing of the property, to the adroit managing of the easement issues, it was a job well done. Thanks."
- "Mike has represented me on the sale of two properties. Each of these transactions had difficulties that only a seasoned executive could navigate. Mr. Luca performed with professionalism, integrity, and the knowledge required to bring both transactions to closure. What is equally advantageous is the respect he has garnered with his peers in the industry, that ultimately leads to a more efficient sales process."
- "Mike Luca and his team led the sale of our commercial real estate asset in El Dorado Hills, and I could not recommend them highly enough. Throughout the transaction I relied heavily on Mike for guidance and counsel, and could always count on him to respond promptly, and be straightforward and honest in his guidance. As a result, we were presented with a buyer for our property in short order, went through minimal back-and-forth negotiating the terms, and closed on schedule with no adjustments. Thanks again Mike, and your team, it was a genuine pleasure working with you."
- "Michael Luca and his team were absolutely incredible with the sale of our property. Mike was professional, courteous and available to answer any questions that I had along the way. His support allowed me to continue running my business during the transaction and he was always respectful of my time. I emphatically endorse Mike and his team."
- "Thank you so much for your incredible persistence and willingness to work with us at Siemens. You have navigated the zig-zag that is Siemens with grace and professionalism."
- "Mike Luca and his team were as dedicated to our vision as we were. He had a constant pulse on the market and accepted challenges that came his way. We hope to engage with his team again should the opportunity arise."
- "Mike Luca was recommended by a close friend who has been in the real estate business for 35 years. I have dealt with other brokers many times and only one matched the same high professional level as Mike and his team. Phone calls and emails were always answered. I was kept informed of all issues. We agreed on strategy. I can highly recommend Mike as a broker and I look forward to working with him again."
- "Mike worked with me to go to market with a specialty-use property with a month-to-month tenant in place. Mike coordinated with the tenant for showings and worked around his concerns. He brought offers from various parties and helped me make the right deal on the building. I felt his marketing was steady and targeted, well-thought out. I appreciated how he stayed in touch since there often are lulls in marketing programs. Once we were under contract, Mike stayed on the many details to keep the transaction moving and closed. I think what stood out was his consistent effort, combined with his thoughtful method of considering pros and cons in discussions with me before acting."
- "Mike Luca is the most professional broker I have ever dealt with. He was on top of the transaction from start to finish."
- "Mike Luca and the team at CBRE were a pleasure to work with in selling a commercial building (3209 Fitzgerald Rd., Rancho Cordova, CA). Mike is professional and handled any challenges during the whole process in a precise and timely manner. At all times he had our best interest at the top of the list, answered all questions and kept us informed during the sale process. I would recommend Mike Luca to anyone needing a competent and professional commercial real estate agent."
- "Last year, we completed a complex three-legged reverse exchange. Many months before we closed on the relinquished property, I met with the team at CBRE (Mike Luca, Ryan De Angelis and David Liu) and asked them to assist us in acquiring 1 or more replacement properties for our exchange. Through CBRE’s vast network of relationships and unmatched market knowledge, they brought us two of the three replacement opportunities we ultimately needed for a successful exchange. One of the properties was fully leased and the other was completely vacant. Just as we were beginning the renovation process on the vacant property, the CBRE team brought us a national, “credit tenant”, candidate. After some nifty negotiation work, and BEFORE we finished the renovations, we had the new tenant under a long-term contract for 100% of the space. No taxes…no down time…no vacancy! Simply an amazing occurrence! Mike, Ryan and David were fantastic to work with throughout this entire process. I would say that without their regional connections, solid work ethic and real estate expertise, our extraordinary result would have been mediocre at best. It was my pleasure to work with them and I look forward to many more transactions with them."
- "Mike Luca is an agent who is very professional in the way he does business. He is very well informed and works hard in getting back to you on any questions that come up. He does an excellent job with all the paperwork and follows up on every detail. I would tell someone that I recommend him and his firm above any other property company."
- "Thank you to your teams for remaining committed to the ongoing effort required to ultimately get the deal (1 Cadillac Drive in Sacramento, CA) closed. Your professionalism is noted and much appreciated. We look forward to additional opportunities to work together."
- “I recently purchased a commercial building in the Sacramento region. Although I have had moderate experience dabbling in the commercial real estate market in the past, this is the first time I’ve worked with Michael Luca and CBRE. Not only was Mike a pleasure to work with but he is a pure professional through and through. This particular escrow had multiple challenges beyond the norm and with each curve ball that got thrown our way Mike was prepared and knowledgeable throughout the resolution process. His advice and counsel was consistently representative of my best interests. I would proudly recommend his services to anyone venturing into the commercial real estate market today.”
- "I have had the pleasure of working with Ryan, Mike and David for eight years. They have leased many of our buildings throughout the years. They have been a huge help and success to our real estate business. I heartily recommend this team for their ability to get along with people, their record of achievement, and their energetic approach to dealing with clients. They approach every opportunity with great enthusiasm and have a great deal of experience in their field."
- "For the past nine years I have employed the services of the Sacramento office of CBRE, Inc. as leasing brokers for Harsch’s Natomas Commerce Center Phase I/Phase II and Riverside Commerce Center Phase IV. In that time Ryan, Mike and David have had great success leasing the multi-tenant office/warehouse buildings. They have continued to exceed my expectations as leasing brokers. I would recommend them as leasing brokers because of their enthusiasm, professionalism, and attention to detail in the marketing process and the management of lease transactions."
- "They are gentlemen and pros. I enjoy doing business with them."
