TESTIMONIALS
From the beginning Development Associates communication, quality of work and their professionalism was top rated! They made every step of this process very easy! We are very excited for our move to our new building and everyone on the Development Associates team has been great to work with.
From the very beginning Development Associates was spot-on with all communications. Trying to get a project done during the Covid period was hard enough, knowing the struggles to obtain products was very difficult. Development Associates hires true professionals, as they are true professionals themselves. The best Maintenance Staff I have ever dealt with…and as everyone knows, it’s the service after that truly counts! We were always very impressed with Development Associates communication, quality of work and their professionalism. I actually really enjoyed the experience and hope to be a very long tenant. Thank you!
MassHire Franklin Hampshire Career Center moved into the Greenfield Corporate Center at the end of May 2023 after a lengthy strategic planning process that included a complete rebuild of existing space. Operations Manager, Travis Ward, patiently guided us through each step and kept us on track to meet deadlines while managing to help reduce our overall anxiety. This new location offers our staff and customers a scenic view of trees and flowering bushes from both outside and inside the building, as well as a scheduled bus stop, ample parking and easy access to resident businesses. During our move, Corporate Center staff, specifically the Maintenance Department, led by Mark Hine, readily assisted with the arrival and unloading of moving trucks and delivery of office furniture. They also worked in tandem with building tradesmen pre and post-move and communicated completion status to Career Center managers throughout the process. Greenfield Corporate Center staff (Mark, Joe, Lauri and Everett) continue to respond professionally and expediently to questions and requested assistance with any building related matters. They are always friendly, pleasant and professional. Our entire experience, from the planning phase, the actual move and settling in to our new space has been extremely positive. All Greenfield Corporate Center staff have been and continue to be a pleasure to work with. We couldn’t be happier in our new home!
Agawam Chiropractic is a family Chiropractic office located at Agawam Crossing since January 2022. For over 30 years, we have been providing quality Chiropractic spinal and wellness care for the local community; those individuals who want symptom relief or preventative care. We all realize that insurance and crisis healthcare costs are rising so it is best to STAY healthy rather than GET healthy.
We moved our Chiropractic facility to Agawam Crossing because our other location was being sold.
We were very fortunate to have met with Travis at Development Associates and he made our transition to Agawam Crossing near-painless and smooth. We are grateful for how the team at Development Associates was helpful from the planning phase to the moving phase by making suggestions and allowing us the flexibility we needed to make our move quick and with minimal “down time”.
The Agawam Crossing location is amazing! The property and building are beautiful and we frequently get compliments from our patients about the aesthetics and appearance; most patients stated that the location is “even closer now” and appreciate the more convenient proximity to other nearby businesses.
As the owner of Agawam Chiropractic with office rental experience in multiple locations throughout the US, this has been by far the best building management experience I have ever had and I continue to be pleased with my decision to move and grow my business here. I highly recommend Development Associates to anyone who wants to share in the positive experience.
Thank you to the Development Associates team at Agawam Crossing!
Refresh Valley Dental, LLC is a professional dental office located in Northampton. Our goal is to make it easy to be healthy, eat good food, and smile with confidence. We chose 15 Atwood Drive to start our practice due to its convenient location, professional presentation, tenant improvement contribution, and the convenience of having them oversee our construction. Travis, the Operations Manager for Development Associates, was excellent to work with. He made the construction and lease process as easy and predictable as possible. We appreciate the level of expertise that Travis had shown along our build-out journey. Professionalism was not only carried out by Travis but the Development Associates team as well. What surprised us the most was the great attention to detail. If I were to tell someone who is considering to use Development Associates, I would definitely recommend them, especially for someone working within the medical field.
We do fire investigation work all over the world. We were in a dated, old office space and needed to upgrade. Ken and Travis at Development Associates showed us a rough, open space and in 60 days they built out new offices with a meeting room, a climate-controlled storage room and new lab with a separate HVAC system. Now we have the office and lab facility we need with room to grow. Development Associates executed our buildout quickly and their team stayed ahead of the thought process on all our requirements. They are easy to work with, responsive, and pay close attention to detail. I would recommend anyone looking for new office or manufacturing space to call Development Associates
We pride ourselves on our attention to details in providing patients with quality service and dentistry. It was mandatory that we locate our office in a facility that represents our own business model. The owners and support staff at Development Associates are meticulous. From landscaping to the interior, from the maintenance to the communication they have been remarkable in every aspect. We can’t imagine a better fit for our practice.
Development Associates was very pleasurable and extremely professional from beginning to end. Travis and Mark made sure AIANE was involved and approved every step of the process from blueprints to paint on the walls and didn’t miss anything in between. The attention to detail and superior quality sets them apart from the rest, by far. Our project finished on time and never skipped a beat because of Travis and Mark’s communication and expertise. Development Associates definitely exceeded our expectations, and I would highly recommend them to anyone, without hesitation.
Klein Industries used to be located in Holyoke, MA. We operated out of a building that we outgrew over the years, and the building was no longer in the best condition to operate out of. Development Associates helped us find a new home for our business located in Chicopee, MA. When going through the build out stage, it was a relatively easy process especially when our needs were heard and taken into account. Most of our interactions were with Travis and we would most definitely say that on a scale of 1-10 and 10 being the best that Development Associates is of the best. Klein Industries would give Development Associates a double thumbs up and we certainly recommend them.
From the moment our space was identified as a potential option, Gandara has had such a positive experience with Development Associates. The professionalism of the brokers when showing the space, and the flexibility they offered in allowing us to view it several times was extremely helpful and showed us that if we moved forward with the space, we would be working with a team that was responsive to our needs. The day we moved in we were greeted by Joey because she wanted to make sure we had everything we needed! During that check-in we identified two small things we needed to have looked at. Before leaving that same day, Development Associates already had one of the issues fixed and had scheduled an appointment for the following week to fix the second one! They check in with us to make sure things are going well and are responsive if and when we need them to be. We couldn’t ask for more!
The Development Associates team was excellent to work with, they were responsive and punctual throughout the office design and construction phases. They worked with us on all of our design concerns and were accommodating to our budgetary limits.
DA also takes great pride in their properties. The maintenance staff is friendly and quick to address any issues that arise. LifePath is pleased with the outcome and happy to be in a secure building with so many amenities.
“The space we were in was not suitable, it was an open format… no individual offices. Having just gone through covid, we realized one of our goals was to make it safer for everyone to work together.
We felt like we were treated like first class customers at a high-end hotel, When dealing with Travis & Mark it felt like we were a guest, they asked what our needs were and they found ways to meet those needs. We felt like we were welcomed, we felt we were listened to as far as our needs and our needs were addressed.
Search criteria was to find a landlord that would accommodate our needs and a landlord who had plenty of options to be able to accommodate our needs. In my mind it’s the place to go if they have the space you’re looking for. If you want professional space in greenfield, this is the place to be. It’s easy to find for clients, everything is well maintained, and the whole place gets cleaned every night.
I just love that we have a reception desk and that kind of security where people aren’t wondering the halls. I feel like I am in good company, and if I were to recommend someone to DA, I would want them to know that they are in good company.
As a first time business owner, I really didn’t know a good landlord from a bad one, but I can definitely say that Development Associates has been there for me. As a start‐up, I needed incubation space to get me going and within a year I was looking to double that space. D.A. was there, both times making it easy for me with flexible lease terms and quick building modifications, helping us stay ahead of the growth curve. So it appears I was wrong when I said I didn’t know a good landlord from a bad one. I guess I do know a good one.
A beautiful space and accessible location has allowed our business to thrive in this growing community. Development Associates has been responsive to the growing needs of our new location.
As a dental practice owner, it is invaluable to have competent, ethical and experienced people surrounding you to help deliver care in the highest manner possible. The continued attention to the details of the building is reassuring to me because it demonstrates a level of commitment, professionalism and trust that I can rely on.”
OMG Inc., formerly Olympic Manufacturing Group, has been working with the Development Associates team for better than 7 years. OMG has been leasing industrial space in the Agawam Regional Industrial Park from DA in order to supplement space necessary to support our growth. As the individual within OMG, Inc. responsible for handling real estate, I have found Development Associates extremely responsive to our needs in terms of our existing lease as well as future demand. I cannot think of anyone OMG would rather have as our Agawam based real estate partner than Development Associates.
The entire team at Development Associates has been very responsive to any and all details which required attention. They are easy to get in touch with and follow assignments through to completion.
Travis and the office staff have been nothing but pleasant and responsive to myself and my staff. I would highly recommend working with Development Associates.
From envisioning our space to the final move in, we have been very satisfied with the service from Development Associates. The space we have chosen already had many of the features that would suit our unique needs, which was great. For the renovations that needed to be done, your group was fantastic to work with. We had a little demolition work completed, a room built out, and the HVAC system separated between two of the spaces. Travis’ knowledge base of tenant spaces was a great resource for us as we dreamed up our new space layout and finishes. Communication during the work was clear, we received updates often and we were able to visit the space often to make sure that we were on track. The completed space was finished on time, and the space is simply perfect for us. And even more than all of this, our communications have always been friendly and enjoyable! We thank you very much, and we look forward to a great relationship for years to come!
Working with Development Associates has proven to be a seamless, professional and gratifying experience. Travis and his team are great to work with on all fronts. From all of us at USI, thank you all for your efforts.
We were looking for Class A office space in Agawam, MA so we could recruit our employees from both the Hartford and Springfield regions. We came across Agawam Crossing, which is in an ideal location with many amenities in the area for our staff. We toured the available space and found that it was perfect for our needs. Development Associates, the Property Managers, were very professional and great to work with. We discussed our requirements for the office and they delivered our new space in a short period of time. We are very happy with our new home and our experience working with Development Associates.
Development Associates has provided me with a top notch working office space for my Ameriprise Practice. They were very understanding during the lease negotiations and made sure to accommodate all my “leasing” concerns. They built out my office from the ground floor up within a month of signing the lease so that I was able to move in and resume my daily business activities without interruption. The office construction was done with care and the final result was everything I hoped it would be. My team, my clients and I appreciate the cleanliness and quality of the building we are leasing in too. The office is a second home and we are very happy to be here at 200 Silver Street Agawam. Ken, Travis, Joey, and all the staff of Development Associates are wonderful to work with and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for leased office space.
