Jeff Penfield has sold three commercial properties for Security Bank & Trust. He was not only effective but a pleasure to work with. Communication is very important to us and it was helpful to also have Chad Weeks and the staff available & responsive. I would highly recommend choosing Arrow Companies for your real estate needs.

I have been in the commercial real estate business for 40 years and have known Chad for more than 15 years and was not surprised when he and Steve Fischer ventured out on their own in 2004. Chad has been active in the northwest commercial real estate market in all the years I have known him. “Arrow Companies is the go to group” in this market area. They have developed strong relationships throughout the area. Chad is a man of high integrity, experienced in commercial real estate, a good communicator, pays attention to details and has built a strong staff to manage their business affairs. In the years I have come to know Chad I have come to appreciate his concern for his family, his business associates and I very often consult with him as to the beset manner to market our properties, set competitive prices and how to enter the market.

Greywolf Partners, Inc. has had a very successful relationship with Jeff Penfield as a broker for the past four years. Jeff has been a great partner to work with in finding tenants for the owners of the Waconia office building that we manage. We have reached 100% occupancy in the building thanks to the hard work and negotiating skills that Jeff displays. As vacancies occur, we will continue to look to Jeff to bring solid deals to the property.

There had been a lot of bumps along the way dealing with listing agents however, through Trevor's professionalism, determination, and knowledge he got results!

I have been doing business with Arrow Companies for almost 11 years. Arrow not only provides excellent property management services for my company, but also administers the leasing of suites that become vacant. I am confident when I contract with them to provide leasing services that the marketing of my building is of the highest quality, and is filled in the shortest amount of time.

I used Jeff Penfield as my commercial agent to assist me in securing new office space. He was recommended by a colleague of mine in Maple Grove. After visiting several locations, I settled on my present office space in Brooklyn Park. Jeff was immensely helpful in reviewing and revising the commercial lease, which needed many changes and additions. Although the property manager/owner was extremely slow in responding, we finally came to terms and signed the lease to my satisfaction. My new office is absolutely beautiful and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Jeff was invaluable in his role as my agent and very protective of my interests. I would highly recommend Jeff and Arrow Companies to anyone looking for commercial office space.
– Leslie L. KimesAttorney at Law
Trevor Morlock was very helpful at each step in the process. He translated the inconsistent rental pricing information into a format that allowed me to make a better "apples-to-apples" comparison, and he guided me through the process. We're very happy with our new location and recommend Trevor to others looking for help in finding new office space.

I WORK IN THE BELL TOWER WEST BUILDING IN MAPLE GROVE AND LAST WEEK THE HEAT WENT OUT WHEN IT WAS WELL BELOW 0 OUTSIDE AND CONTACTED ARROW COMPANIES AND NOTIFIED THEM OF THE PROBLEM AND WAS ON TOP OF THE PROBLEM RIGHT AWAY. A REP FROM ARROW COMPANIES (HAILEY) WAS OUT WITHIN AN HOUR OF THE NOTIFICATION AND PERSONALLY CAME IN AND NOTIFIED US WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE HEAT AND AN ETA FOR THE FIX. ALONG WITH THAT SHE WENT THE EXTRA MILE AND PURCHASED PORTABLE SPACE HEATERS TO AID IN KEEPING THE OFFICE WARM UNTIL THE HEAT WAS FIXED. ARROW COMPANIES BY FAR IS THE BEST MANAGEMENT COMPANY THIS BUILDING HAS SEEN.

I have known Steve Fischer since 2009. He provided the leadership in putting together the process and execution in building Lifestyle Commons in Maple Grove. We are one of three businesses in the complex. Since the completion of the building, Steve and Arrow Companies have served as the property manager for the complex. Steve is a person of integrity. He does what he says he will do. Things get done right the first time. Our building project was completed on-budget and on-time. He continues to earn our business every day.

Integrity. Quality. Responsiveness. Value. These are the qualities that forge long-lasting business relationships. These are the hallmarks of Arrow Companies and its owners, Steve Fischer and Chad Weeks. Arrow Companies played a substantial role in bringing my entrepreneurial dream of owning commercial real estate to fruition. From concept, to paper, to execution, we now own three magnificent commercial buildings in the Minneapolis suburbs of Maple Grove, Plymouth and Coon Rapids. Steve, Chad and their diverse team made this herculean feat come together on-time and on-budget!
