Client Testimonials
When making the decision to move out of state, I chose Mario Asaro to handle the sale of my industrial properties given his reputation with my family and other building owners. Mario’s in-depth knowledge of the area, the buildings and the buyer pool lead to quick sales with satisfied buyers and seller. I would highly recommend Mario and his company Industry One to handle any Commercial Real Estate Sale.

I want to thank both Lisa and Bob for all of their help finding us the perfect warehouse for our Long Island Tent operation. Everything from inception to completion was at a high professional level. As a matter of fact, I was going to use my previous realtors to find our new warehouse but they couldn't find the right fit and eventually told me that there was nothing out there that would suit our needs. Lisa was extremely persistent as she periodically knocked on our door and was confident that she could get it done for us. Well, I finally gave her a shot and it was the best thing I ever did! Bob and Lisa took me out on many outings to look at various options. They would always point out the positives and drawbacks of each warehouse without being pushy, as they understood it was a huge decision. Eventually we found an incredible opportunity but it had some issues. The negotiations along with resolving the issues took some time yet Bob and Lisa remained patient and resilient. I can honestly say this warehouse has been a game changer for us. We really got the deal of the century. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, they also found us tenants in short order for a portion of the building. I strongly recommend anyone who is looking to make a big commercial real estate investment to use this fabulous team at Industry one. I can't thank them enough.

To Whom It May Concern: I met Mario Asaro and Industry One a number of years ago when some of the properties in our portfolio that were located on Long Island were not being leased expeditiously and another Broker whom I trusted and known for many years told me I need to hire Mario. Once I did Mario and Industry One got right to work and successfully leased out a large space for us that had its challenges. His company also leased out two stores in our shopping center on Long Island. More recently my Partner and I began some development projects and decided to sell the Three Industrial Properties on Long Island; Mario Asaro handled that for us as well. We were very pleased that he did everything possible not to leave any money on the table and always made sure our interests were protected.
He is a genuine individual and seems to be growing a great company with Industry One. I am confident he will perform for whomever gives him the opportunity and responsibility.
- James Ross, President InterCapital Realty Group
I have known Mario Asaro for about 8 years. During that time, I have purchased two properties for my Businesses through him. I also hired him to sell one when I thought we might want to. He always delivered.
Some of the main reasons I chose to work with Mario were his personality, persistence, and the fact he is very honest and trustworthy. In addition, his company Industry One is also becoming very well-known and respected on Long Island.
I have been referring Mario and his company to business associates who may need a commercial real estate brokerage, and I do so with confidence that they will not make me look bad but on the contrary, they will deliver for my friends and associates.
If anyone ever has any questions about my experience working with Mario Asaro or Industry One Realty they are free to call me to discuss it. My office number is 516-731-5466.

We just recently sold an industrial building and an industrial lot through Mario Asaro of Industry One Realty. It was a pleasure to work with him; he was very knowledgeable about the local market and was very friendly and always returned my phone calls and emails promptly. Due to his efforts, he was able to get us a very substantial sales price in a reasonable time period. Thanks again to Mario and the Industry One organization.

Lisa was invaluable in finding us the perfect building for our growing business. She understood our objectives and our future goals and worked tirelessly until she found us the right space. She worked with us for several months and never showed us anything that was off track with what we needed. She proactively continued to help us along the contract phase and was instrumental in getting us to closing. We look forward to working with Lisa again for our future commercial real estate needs.

Our company had commercial space to lease so we enlisted the help of Mario Asaro and his team at Industry One. Because of his extensive experience and knowledge of the area we thought he could be the one who could do it and he delivered! We were impressed with his tenacity and relentless drive to show the space to as many prospective people as he did. He is friendly, professional, honest and direct—qualities you would look for in a broker. My advice to you if you are looking to rent, lease, or buy, meet with Mario Asaro and hear what he has to say. He truly is a great broker who will get the job done.

-James McGuigan, CEO
"We were fortunate to have Desmond of Industry One Realty handle the sale of our Industrial building in East Setauket. His knowledge of the market and professional attitude helped close the deal during this Covid-19 pandemic. He was so easy to work with, always answering any questions and concerns that came up.
I would recommend Desmond to anyone looking for a professional Real Estate Agent."
- Tom Hoerner, OE Tire
“Our
company needed a property on Long Island after we sold our old location in
Queens. We had to move fast to comply with the rigid 1031 exchange timeline.
After reaching out to Desmond for assistance he quickly identified options that
could work for our operation. Thankfully, we ended up purchasing one of these
properties located in Farmingdale. Desmond not only helped us find a new home
for our business, but he saved us from paying a substantial amount of money in
capital gains taxes. If you are in a similar situation, I recommend you give
him a call!”
- Peter Macchia, Continental Lift Truck
"I am very happy we chose Bob as our real-estate agent. Our re-location process took over a year to find the right home for us. Bob was available for us whenever we needed him leaving no questions unanswered. We were even close to settling on deal, when another opportunity came into play that he knew was a better choice for us. Overall working with Bob was a great experience and I plan to use him again in the future. Valuable asset to our decision making process."
Craig Geiger, Co-President of Graphixsolutions.com
"When we out grew our last building, Bob Desmond was a huge asset in helping us locate our new 30,000 sq. ft. manufacturing location in Bohemia and selling our old location in Medford. As president of the company I am very involved with the daily operations of the company and did not have time to waste looking at buildings that were not contenders. Bob took the time to learn what I expected in my next building and only showed me buildings with real potential. I couldn’t be happier with the result. On the sales end Bob was able to find a buyer for our old building, getting us the price we were looking for. Bob even helped us rent a portion of our new building until we grew into the space. What is typically a stressful experience turned out to be a rather pleasurable one thanks to Bob’s friendly personality, knowledge of the industry, and years of experience."
Brian Robertson, President of Northrock Industries Inc.

I contacted Carmine and he was able to find and secure the perfect space for me within a week. He listened to my needs and knew the market well enough to locate my space. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for office space on Long Island."
-Allen Polyakov, Eagle Funding
“We owned our building in the Hauppauge Industrial park for over 20 years. When the time came to sell, Desmond worked diligently to get us to the closing table.
