"I have known Richard Glickman for several years. He is currently engaged on an exclusive basis to be my representative in the purchase of sites for my hotel chain. Richard has earned my respect and admiration in my past dealings with him. He has a composite knowledge of the real estate business and is quite creative in site selection and very capable in working through development issues in complex urban situations.
Richard secured the famous Ben's site for my new hotel in downtown Montreal. It was a complex transaction and needed a cool hand and tenacity to bring a conclusion to the transaction.
Richard has always kept my best interests at heart, and in all the years I have been in the real estate business, I can honestly say he is one of the brightest real estate consultants I have ever known. I highly recommend him."

"I have known Richard Glickman as a trusted advisor to the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) for over three years. Richard was the lead of the advisory team to the Royal Victoria Hospital Foundation and the MUHC on the acquisition of the Air Canada building, an important multi-million dollar asset next to the new hospital site known as the Glen Yards. His consummate knowledge of all real estate matters identified the current and undeveloped values of the site. Consequently he created an appropriate negotiating strategy to attain the asset. Additionally, as the lead of the team he handled the negotiations of a leaseback of the entire building to the Vendor. As a result, he was able to attain considerable savings to our institution, even though we were in a pre-emptive situation. We continue to use Richard in various redevelopment projects and find that he is able to deal on an extremely professional and competent basis with the most sensitive and complex of situations. Therefore, I have no hesitation in recommending him in any role that may include the acquisition, disposition, site selection, development or leasing of real estate."

"Richard Glickman is very well regarded by the real estate team at Scotiabank… and he typically outperformed our expectations in the most complicated and delicate situations."

"This is to confirm that Mr. Richard Glickman, has been providing advisory services on a development project in the Montreal CBD to Standard Life for the past year. His insight and input in all phases of the development concept have proven to be extremely valuable including design of our project. His extensive experience and background in dealing with different governmental levels has been instrumental in achieving a quick resolution of our recent demolition and rezoning approvals. Mr. Glickman has been a very important contributor toward our progress and we look forward to his continued direction and expertise moving forward."

"We are very pleased with Richard Glickman’s responsiveness and depth of knowledge of the Montreal real estate market. He has exhibited strategic thinking and brings together all elements in our ongoing negotiations with our landlord. We highly recommend him."

"I have known Richard Glickman since February 2007. I cannot recommend him highly enough for any situation requiring superior expertise in real estate matters, backed by excellent negotiating skills and impeccable professional standards. As the lead member of the team that has most successfully organized the sale in 2007 of the Fraser-Hickson Institute’s property at 4855 Kensington Avenue in Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, he continues to guide us as we look for a suitable new site and has consistently provided the Institute with sound advice together with an extraordinary commitment to resolving our needs. In the course of selecting our new site, Mr. Glickman has investigated a significant number of new locations. In every case, the inquiry has been thorough and has enabled us to narrow our search efficiently. At this point in time, we are in feasibility and design discussions with owners and architects. Mr. Glickman has exhibited a thorough knowledge of all issues related to property development and has been an invaluable advisor in our efforts to optimize the results we seek within a challenging budget constraint. I believe Mr. Glickman is particularly well-qualified to assist his clients in finding the best possible resolution of their real estate development and transactional requirements."

"I want to tell you that of the many people I have met in 22 years in the real estate development business, you are one of the most competent, most flexible and knowledgeable."
