Stop & Stor Celebrates 25 Years of Providing Self Storage Services to NYC This Month

Saturday, February 1st, 2014


New York, NY (PRWEB) December 18, 2013

More than two decades ago, two families in the real estate business sensed a need in our community. Twenty-five years later their business acumen and commitment to providing a necessary and affordable self -storage service has enabled them to grow a business with over 70 employees, 15 locations, and all anchored on Staten Island through its corporate offices located in Willowbrook.

Stop & Stor is pleased to announce that this month they are celebrating their 25th year anniversary.

As professionals in the real estate industry, the Henick and Simon families witnessed the growth of Staten Islands communities and interacted with the many families looking to build their home and their future here. This experience naturally translated into forming a family-owned partnership – Stop & Stor assisting our community and beyond with a service needed by a growing borough.

As the company grew the principals of Stop & Stor – Ken Henick and his son, Jeff, along with Morty Simon and his son, Neil, – had a vision of the type of service they wanted to provide to their customers leading them to open up self storage facilities that were drive through; affordable; clean; and equipped with uniformed and professional staff.

Stop & Stors first storage facility at 780 Gulf Avenue in the West Shore section of Staten Island is still operational (opened in November of 1988) and was the first outdoor storage facility in New York City. From day one, Jeff Henick was responsible for operations of this Staten Island storage location, and now 25 years later, is Chief Operating Officer responsible for close to 18,000 customers.

Jeff Henick has a philosophy: Offer a superior product, quality service, with professional and courteous employees. I enjoy giving our customers the very best in the self-storage industry. Plain and simple, We Care about our customers. Jeffs philosophy and leadership has contributed to Stop & Stors reputation as New Yorks Self Storage Leader.

Every day Stop & Stor delivers on a basic need extra space! From the basic move from one house to another, to the downsizing during the golden years, to fellow business owners who just need to store and secure their records, we provide an option an affordable, clean, and secure one, said Neil Simon.

Providing a quality self storage service is just one piece of the companys fabric at Stop & Stor. Being part of a community and setting an example of leadership giving is essential to Stop & Stors operating philosophy. Through the Stop & Stor Charitable Fund, the company has given back to every neighborhood where it does business. The fund supports a diverse range of organizations with a major focus on education, arts and culture, community development, humanitarian, government, animal protection, beautification of parks, and medical research.

The fund has given over 1.5 million dollars in donations since it began in 2002. Examples of the type of organizations the company has donated to are: Fund for Public Schools, all N.Y.C. Public Libraries, Wounded Warrior Project, Lincoln Center, Metropolitan Museum of Art, City Harvest, Doctors Without Borders, AmeriCares, Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the Wildlife Conservation Society, A Very Special Place, and the Boy Scouts of America. The Stop & Stor Charitable Fund also responds swiftly to crises and natural disasters across Staten Island and across the world. The fund is currently in the process of identifying an organization to support that is helping the victims of the recent typhoon in the Philippines.

Some of the Staten Island charities supported by Stop & Stor are: Adopt A Highway, American Cancer Society (Staten Island Chapter), A Very Special Place, College of Staten Island Center for the Arts, Foundation For the Advancement of Autistic Persons, Meals On Wheels of Staten Island, National Lighthouse Museum, Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanic Garden, Staten Island Ballet, Staten Island Community Services, Staten Island Museum, Staten Island Project Homefront, and Staten Island Childrens Museum.

Incidentally, the Staten Island Division of the Boy Scouts honored Jeff Henick at an event this month for the support the organization has received from Stop & Stor.

Although Stop & Stors roots are in Staten Island, it has branched out and now has self storage facilities in all of New York Citys boroughs including self storage units in Brooklyn, Staten Island, Bronx, and Queens with the exception of Manhattan.

Tellico Village Soon to Celebrate 25 Years of Satisfaction in Eastern Tennessee

Tuesday, December 3rd, 2013


Knoxville, Tennessee (PRWEB) November 06, 2013

Real Estate Scorecard salutes Tellico Villages 25th Anniversary to be celebrated next month. The homeowners association (HOA) is excited to show the fellow Villagers their hard work. It is not an easy task to make everyone happy in a community, unless you are a Villager at Tellico Village in Loudon Tennessee.

One of the best Eastern Tennessee lake communities has an amazing homeowners association that manages to meet the needs of all of their residents. From resolving issues for the residents to organizing community celebrations at the exclusive Yacht Club, Tellico Village social clubs and the homeowners association are on the ball and happy to be of service.

As more families and retirees become owners of Loudon real estate, communities rely on their local homeowners associations to represent their residential needs. 50% of the residents are involved with the Tellico Village association and offer representation and provides efficient and organized strategies to ensure the best living situations in Tellico Village. The Tellico Villages homeowners association is comprised of a volunteer Board of Directors, several specialized committees and associate members. The homeowners association connects with the local government about relevant community issues, communicates affairs with residents and helps organize events with the Tellico Village social clubs. The homeowners association also works with the Property Owners Association which provides management of the infrastructure and amenities at Tellico Village.

The homeowners association is also responsible for maintaining a tight ship within the community. Not all Eastern Tennessee lake communities are like Tellico Village. Members of the homeowners association keep track of residential information, organize focus groups and collect resident surveys to ensure community satisfaction. The homeowners association also protects the best interests of Tellico Village. In February 2010, the Liaison Committee was created to help the Tellico Village Association during the construction of the Dam Safety Project. The association and the committee helped prevent adverse impacts against community landscapes and Loudon real estate, property values and ensure a positive working relationship with other groups, subcontractors and other organizations.

The homeowners association at Tellico Village support the Tellico Village social clubs. The homeowners association partners with the Tellico Village Garden Club on their recycling initiatives and environmental awareness efforts. The groups inform residents about the available Public Works Recycling Center or golf cart farm in Kahite and portions of proceeds support the maintenance of the 19 Tellico Village gardens. The homeowners association at Tellico Village does not stop there! The association works with other groups and supports nonprofit campaigns, law enforcement and medical issues concerning the Eastern Tennessee lake communities and stays connected about library and educational projects.

When the work is on pause, the association uses their time to organize special events for Tellico Village members. Along with other parties and activities, the homeowners association is preparing for the Tellico Village Annual Christmas Gala at the stunning, exclusive Yacht Club this year. It is the most wonderful time of the year when residents and members of the Tellico Village homeowners association can celebrate together and enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Stacey Zorzi Celebrates 15 Years With Seattle Real Estate Team Bennion & Deville Fine Homes

Tuesday, November 26th, 2013


Seattle, WA (PRWEB) November 05, 2013

This week Stacey Zorzi celebrates her 15-year anniversary with the Bennion & Deville Fine Homes team in Seattle. Since joining the team as transaction manager in 1999, Zorzi has become an integral part of the companys success as Bennion and Deville Fine Homes has evolved into a hallmark example of a progressive, luxury real estate team serving all of Seattle, the Eastside, and the greater Puget Sound region.

Prior to working for Bennion and Deville Fine Homes’ owners Bob Bennion and Bob Deville, Zorzi was a licensed real estate assistant for an agent on the Eastside. When a position became available with Bennion & Deville in 1999, she took the opportunity. I was attracted to the position because even at the time, the Bobs were known as this successful, dynamic duo that were selling all these homes. I loved being busy and I was really thrilled about being a part of a wonderful team that had such a great reputation. Zorzi was hired as a transaction manager for her strong passion for helping people solve problems and achieve their goals, as well as her demonstrated ability to understand the unique needs and demands of real estate clients.

Zorzi has assisted Bennion & Deville Fine Homes in achieving many years of success. Her dedication in focusing on the special needs of their clients has been well rewarded, earning them a highly loyal clientele. She is a true model of consistency for both the company and our clients, says Bob Bennion, president and co-owner of Bennion & Deville Fine Homes. She places incredible value on her relationships with people and thats the bar she has set on our team. She has used her depth of experience and capability to care for our clients and to really help us grow the business into what it has become today.

Fifteen years, and over 600 transactions amounting to more than $ 750,000,000 in sales, Zorzi has helped thousands of clients settle into Seattle homes.

We spend so much time with our clients at integral points in their life that we develop these relationships with them that fall under very unique circumstances. When a deal closes, as a joke I often say to people were not breaking up, were just moving on, says Zorzi. I have met so many amazing people over the years that have become friends. Working at the tail-end of getting a deal closed means I work hard to represent the Bobs and our team to make sure that clients leave with the best experience possible. Getting to celebrate milestones in their lives as they return to us for business when they get married, have children, move in other directions, etc. is truly a blessing.

In small, tight knit communities like Seattles, reputation means a lot. Bennion & Deville have long been recognized for their commitment to their clients, as well as the professionalism, reliability and integrity with which they conduct business. As organizations often take on the personality of those who work for them, Stacey is no exception to this reputation. She is an amazing person on many, many levels, says Bob Bennion. She always considers the clients needs before her own, makes her schedule accommodate theirs, and will work any hour of the day on behalf of a buyer or a seller. She approaches every day with enthusiasm and determination and that kind of attitude is infectious in this business.

Most importantly, Zorzi gets the job done. As a Seattle native, she has extensive knowledge of Seattle and the Eastside areas. She specializes in closing and securing transactions with buyers and sellers who can be assured, based on her guidance and the efforts of Bennion & Devilles full service team, that their transactions will close on schedule and smoothly.

I have felt humbled and lucky every day to have lived out a career with the Bobs. Over the years they have built up my confidence level and taught me so much about the business for which I could not be more grateful, concluded Zorzi. We work so hard to provide clients with the best experience possible and I could only be so lucky to work with such a wonderful team for many years to come.
