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.

The Holloway Group, a Knoxville Real Estate Team Announces a New Mobile Technology Providing Customers Immediate Access to Knoxville Homes for Sale

Saturday, November 3rd, 2012


Knoxville, TN (PRWEB) November 02, 2012

The Holloway Group, the leading Knoxville real estate team at Gables & Gates, REALTORS announces the utilization of a new mobile technology that will provide customers with immediate access to information on all Knoxville homes for sale.

The Gables & Gates Curbcall Information System allows homebuyers immediate access to the entire “Knoxville homes for sale” inventory from ANY telephone. Troy Stavros, Broker and Partner with the Holloway Group states, “All that home buyers need to do is call the local number, 865-321-8966, and enter the house street number to immediately hear the details on any home for sale in the Knoxville MLS inventory”.

The description of the property is delivered via telephone in an easy-to-understand sentence format in both English and Spanish 24 hours a day, seven days a week. With the use of their custom Curbcall sign riders, the technology also notifies the Holloway Group that there has been an inquiry on a listing and provides sellers with reports detailing the interest their home receives from potential buyers.

Stavros stated that the beauty of the technology is it’s simplicity, “It’s really simple. First, I’d recommend programming the number into your mobile phone. Then anytime you drive past or see a property you’re interesting in, stop, call the number, and enter the house number and first letter of the street name and you’re immediately given all the pertinent details”. Stavros stated that after given the details, additional options are available including receiving an estimated mortgage payment or a text message with the homes features sent directly to their cell phone or handheld device. For those inquiring with smartphones, theyll receive a web link that will give them GPS property directions and photos of the property. During all stages of the inquiry the customer is a simple button push away from speaking directly with a Knoxville real estate agent at the Holloway Group agent should they have any additional questions or want to schedule a showing.

Stavros says if all that wasn’t enough there’s more, “Another really cool part of the technology is if you have the Holloway Group enter your cell phone number and email address in the Curbcall database, we can register you to ensure that no other agent will ever contact you if you use the 865-321-8966 number. The important thing to remember is that this system can be used on ALL Knoxville homes for sale, not just homes listed by Gables & Gates, REALTORS or the Holloway Group. Registering does more than eliminate callbacks from other agents when you are just looking for information. With your email in place, the Curbcall system will send you an email with property information on every home on which you inquire, so it is waiting in your email when you get home from driving around.”

Texas Veterans Find Relief with Security American Realty’s Real Estate Agents; Ryan Ward, Garrett Puckett, & Carlos Say – Providing VA Home Loan Benefits to Houston Buyers

Saturday, September 8th, 2012


Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Texas (PRWEB) September 06, 2012

On September 4th, 2012 Texas Veterans found home owning relief and support with a group of Real Estate Agents from Security American Realty; Ryan Ward, Garrett Puckett, & Carlos Say.

Security American Realty also recently launched a new VA-focused website that serves as an advocate site for military families looking to live in Texas and/or Florida, and for those looking to use their VA home loan benefits. The ‘Great State of Texas’ is one of the most rewarding places to move to if you are a military service member due to the simple fact that the southern state houses an estimated population of around 1,693,800 veterans alone. Having as many as fifteen military bases, including Fort Hood, which is one of the largest military installations in the United States is also something Texans like to brag about. Popular metro cities range in climates, from having the warm tropical feel (in San Antonio and Houston) to the lake-filled, hill spring culture (in Austin and Dallas).

Licensed RMLS professionals and Veterans in Texas could learn a lot from the gentleman at Security American Realty recently started to create a good cross-beneficial program for military members to take advantage of in Texas. Advantages include VA mortgage assistance with purchasing a home using VA Home Loans and/or VA Refinance Loans. With expert advice right at the fingertips of recently transitioned veterans, the process of buying a home has been made so much easier by Real Estate Agents like those from Security American Realty, who bend to the needs of the people who fought hard for the county that we live in.

Providing VA Home Loan benefits to Houston home buyers who are previous veterans can be a great reward for Real Estate Agents who are dedicated to helping military families find homes in Houston, Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio.

VA Home Loan Benefits are available to all eligible veterans and military members, including spouses of the military deceased members. For single parents left alone at the hand of combat or war, though the loss of a loved one has gone, the hope of owning a home can still be achieved using VA home loan benefits. All dreams of owning a home can be held by the buyer at an astounding low cost too.

All a veteran needs to do in order to begin the VA loan process is to fill out the form to obtain a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) approval from VA. Any VA Lender, like Security America Mortgage for example, can fill out a short form to receive help in obtaining a COE. Most COE request forms can be completed from any VA approved lenders’ website online. Veterans can also obtain COE forms at any regional VA loan offices. The form is also free regardless of which method is used, but for veterans purchasing a home in Texas, the best route to take is to contact a VA lender in order to receive fast and seamless customer service when obtaining VA benefit requests for a mortgage.

Referral agent programs have also been implemented recently by Security American Realty to assist in the effort to secure the VA guaranty benefit for military members. A lender that uses an agent to perform any portion of the work involved in originating and closing a VA-guaranteed loan is the sponsoring lender for that agent.

Veterans who have used the Real Estate pros that specialize in VA home loan benefits have been given the opportunity to save twice as much money on a home purchase that they would have had before with an average Real Estate Agent. Since Security American Realty refer all of their clients to financial experts that are already approved VA Mortgage Lenders, dedicated to assisting veterans with home ownership, military families are now catered to in the great state of Texas.

Learning more about buying a home in Texas makes the process of purchasing and finding a home easier when Real Estate experts like those from Security American Realty are contacted before a decision is made. Real Estate Agents making the difference for Veterans moving to Texas is a strong mission to stand for, to say the least.
