TESTIMONIALS
The Quest company has represented us (Covelli Family Limited Partnership dba Panera Bread) here in Central Florida since 1997. Quest has always presented us with thoroughly analyzed locations, understanding our parameters and needs.
Their knowledge of the market and their relationships with developers and landlords helped us establish our brand exponentially. We would highly recommend Quest in any real estate business.
– Gavin Ford, Covelli Family Limited Partnership d/b/a Panera Bread
Quest has managed my Florida real estate portfolio since 1988. They treat every property as if it was their own, from strategy to implementation. I could not be more satisfied.
– Nicholas E. O’Neill, Grenick Corporation
More than 20 years with Quest says all that needs to be said.
– David Kenny, MBK-DHK Investments, LP
Ben,
Just wanted to let you know that Dottie’s first forays into managing our property are appreciated. She really seems to have an eye for craftsmanship/ quality, is pushing follow thru, and her emails and photos have been very helpful.
There is a level of care she is exhibiting that both Jeremy and I appreciate and feel honors what our mother was doing at the properties.
– Nicholas Holt, AIA, LEED AP BD+C
You were wonderful to work with and made the whole process so easy for us.
We truly appreciate how helpful Quest and Ben are to a new business.
- Joy and Ken Davis
I will truly miss working at 1180 Spring Centre. It’s the best office I’ve ever had in over thirty years of practice. The building is kept meticulously clean and updated, it’s quiet, beautiful and very professional.
More importantly, you, Angie and John were consistently warm, helpful, kind and gracious.
– Noreen M. Keenan, Ph.D.
Dottie,
Now that the properties have sold and the dust has settled, I want to send you a personal note of thanks for all you did.
I saw that without your efforts and experience, we would not have gotten to the finish line with the gas station buyer. I sure hope that your company realizes how valuable you are to its success.
- Timothy Slattery, Executive VP
Reba, thank you for all of your support over the years! You are the best property manager I have ever dealt with. I appreciate you so much.

PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
The Property Management Department consists of professionals devoted solely to operating a first-class management operation, who hold designations such as Certified Property Manager, Certified Paralegal, and CCIM.
Quest Company President Stephen LaFreniere has served as the past president of the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM) – Central Florida Chapter.
Our property managers have a depth of experience that only seasoned professionals can offer you. Unlike large, national firms, however, Quest Company has the flexibility to tailor its reporting to your specific needs.
Whether you own an office building, shopping center, warehouse, retail store, industrial complex, flex space, medical building or condo association, Quest Company can manage it for you. Further, we offer accounting services, customized reporting, budgeting, annual audits and vendor contract analysis.
With Quest’s partners also owning investment properties, the team understands the needs and nuances that you face. Having a Leasing & Sales division also enables us to see the “big picture” and serve you more effectively.
Also visit our "Awards" page to see that Quest's Property Management division has consistently placed among the Top 25 Property Management Companies in all of Central Florida!
TENANT REP
Abraham Lincoln said that “He who represents himself has a fool for a client.” That also applies to representing yourself in commercial real estate transactions. Quest Company’s team has the market expertise, insight and depth of experience that is critical for finding the right facility for your business.
Without guidance from a seasoned professional, you could make mistakes that cost tens of thousands of dollars. In some cases, not utilizing professional guidance can literally make the difference between the success or failure of your business!
As experts who specialize solely in the Central Florida market, we consider not only the financial terms of a transaction, but equally important factors that you either may not have considered or have the resources to research. Elements such as visibility, ease of access, traffic counts, zoning regulations, maintenance issues, renewal options, improvement allowances, and so much more.
Usually at NO cost to you, Quest can handle the entire process of Market Penetration Strategy, Site Identification for Lease or Purchase, Site Approval Packages and Buy or Lease Negotiations.
The companies below are just a few of the notable clients that we have represented over our many years in the real estate industry or currently represent.
Quest Company has been honored to represent Tenants across a diverse range of industries . . .
BROKERAGE
The Sales & Leasing division of Quest Company is comprised of seasoned commercial real estate agents that have specialized in Central Florida real estate for decades.
While other firms aspired to grow to a national level, we made a conscious choice to focus solely on the greater Central Florida market. Consequently, regional and national firms have repeatedly asked us to handle the sales and leasing of their properties.
Despite online research, there are still market factors that can only be learned by knowing the area market well, and we consistently prove the value of such expertise. As part of the process, Quest handles the marketing, negotiations, acquisition or disposition and follow up necessary to close the transaction.
Quest’s services extend far beyond just sales and leasing, however. We also can serve you with:
Quest’s retail services group has represented such diverse clients as Toys ‘R Us, Perkins Restaurant, Food Lion, Pic ‘N Pay, Fuddruckers, Tutor Time, Schlotzsky’s Deli, Hardees, The Associates Financial, Flagstar (Quincy’s Restaurant), Frank’s Nursery, Orange Bank, and Boston Market/Chicken in their surplus property disposition needs.
Representing the full spectrum of commercial real estate . . .
