I had the opportunity and pleasure to work with Ken Goodman of Interface Properties on the successful completion of two Panera Lease transactions in Idaho within the last 2-3 years.
Ken is one of the most industrious individuals I have ever worked with, and operates at an “accelerated” pace to meet the deadlines and commitments that we challenged him with. The Panera site acquisition process can be cumbersome, and Ken consistently exercised the patience and diligence to adapt and absorb our complex internal process, and he exercised the perseverance, that eventually resulted in the timely completion of the Lease and scheduled store opening.
Ken is a Development Pro, and operates with transparency, and efficiency, and is nimble enough to react, adapt, and improvise to the variables we threw at him during both Idaho transactions. Based on my referral, Ken later also completed an additional transaction with one of my Associates on the East Coast which resulted in an additional successful Panera store opening. Ken is the consummate professional, and I highly recommend him for any retailer seeking a Development Partner.

We have had the pleasure of completing multiple deals with Ken Goodman over the past 15 years. The deal process always moved smoothly from the LOI phase right to the opening of the store. Ken always builds a quality project, delivers on time and is available 24-7 to help ensure all questions or any concerns are addressed immediately.
I have been in this industry many years and I have yet to find a developer who is a better listener and delivers 100% on what they say. You or your client will be happy, and you will be compensated promptly and very fairly.

I have had the pleasure of working with Interface Properties on over 80 successful projects since 2013. Interface’s attention to detail and responsiveness is second to none. Both those qualities seem simple but are crucial in having a perfect tract record like they have had with my team.

Interface Properties is known from coast to coast as a Can-Do developer. They have access to equity and debt at a moment’s notice and have a steady stable of service providers: in-house administration and accounting, engineers, architects, brokers, and attorneys who understand the development process and perform at a high level. Interface is at the top of my list of developers to call.
