"It was a pleasure working with Joe Ricciuti and the Ocean Block Capital team. I had been in contact with Ocean Block for several years regarding a property I owned. Every conversation was cordial and professional. When I decided to enter into the contract Joe kept me apprised of the progress and the deal closed as promised. I look forward to doing more business with Ocean Block Capital in the future!"

"Ocean Block is an absolute pleasure to work with. In a challenging market, Joe, Quinn & Michael were able to get creative and move quickly to close a short-term two-pack deal consisting of a PNC Bank & a Starbucks. The Ocean Block team is very responsive and diligent. Our Firm at B+E looks forward to many more transactions with them to come."

"We just did a transaction with Ocean Block Capital and want to say that it was a great experience. We were selling a very nice 7-Eleven property with 6+ years left on its lease. Ocean Block made an offer and then did everything they said they would to make the transaction happen on our schedule and without hiccups. The Ocean Block team is very professional, competent and experienced. They operate with high integrity. We would encourage other sellers to believe Joe Ricciuti and his team when they say that they will "get it done".... because they do...
and they are nice people to boot!"

"Joe Ricciuti, Zach Lesko and the Ocean Block team were great to work with during this 7-Eleven transaction. They are extremely knowledgeable in the net lease space and provided a smooth and seamless process from inception to completion. Would do another deal with them in a heartbeat."

It was a pleasure working with Joe Ricciuti, Quinn Morris and the rest of the staff at Ocean Block Capital. Last night I was praising you while discussing the sale of our Commercial property with my wife over a glass of wine. My comment to her was that if it had not been for Joe and Quinn I didn’t think our sale would have happened. Joe and Quinn were definitely straight shooters, and gave me confidence that your organization negotiated this deal in good faith, job well done. Good luck as the new owners of our property, Happy Holidays to both of you.

"Joe contacted me regarding possibly purchasing one of our buildings with 6 Brothers Realty. Initially, we were not ready to sell, as the way the lease was set up, it was not advantageous for us to do so. Joe, stayed in contact with us, and put together a deal. Throughout the process Joe was thorough, professional and honest, and I enjoyed doing business with him, and I'd highly recommend working with him."

Working with Joe, Quinn and Michael on their most recent acquisition was absolutely seamless from start to finish. The OBC team operates with maximum efficiency and diligence. Each member of the acquisition team has their marching orders once a Letter of Intent is signed, and they flawlessly execute. I look forward to working with Ocean Block again in the near future.

"I wish all property buyers were like Ocean Block Capital. They recently purchased one of our net leased restaurant properties in the Midwest, and what a great experience it was. Joe Ricciuti, Quinn Morris and team were professional, timely, communicative, and detail oriented, saving us countless hours of work that we normally count on doing ourselves as Seller. As a small-staffed owner of over 100 properties nationwide, this was invaluable to us. If you have property to sell, Ocean Block Capital should be on your short list of potential buyers."

"Working with Joe - well really, Joe and his entire team - could not have been any more pleasant or simple. Every step of the way, either Joe, or Ben - or someone from their legal team - was available to help where needed, or (as was often the case) just to explain what was going on. Ocean Block Capital very simply laid out what was going to happen, and then proceeded to make it happen. Delivered as promised. Smooth and seamless. When I saw the closing statement my first thought was "why can't all closings be this simple and easy ?"

"I was fortunate enough to transact recently with Ocean Block Capital on an east coast, credit single tenant industrial facility. OBC was well funded and professionally worked through the inspection period and all issues that led to the closing. I am on the lookout for more investment opportunities to bring their way!"

"I’ve closed multiple deals with OBC and found them to be responsive, professional and trustworthy. They were deal-makers but not pushy. They produced an LOI in 24-hours and closed expeditiously, to meet my timeline. It was principle-to-principle and no-nonsense. I’d work with them again and recommend them to others. Overall, a very positive experience."

"Having been in commercial real estate in excess of 43 years, both as a Developer and as a Commercial Real Estate Broker in the state of Alaska, I was asked to act in somewhat of an ‘Oversight’ posture in a sale transaction in which Ocean Block Capital was the Purchaser and a Family Trust was the Seller. As one may suspect, there were differences between New York and Alaska real estate procedural matters, but there was never anything insurmountable that became problematic or a deal killer. It was a joy to work with such professionals."
Joe LoMonaco

"I had the pleasure of working with Joe Ricciuti on an all-electronic real estate transaction beginning in November 2019. He represented the Buyers, I represented the Sellers. We did the entire deal from initial cold contact to closing in less than 60 days. In a nutshell, working with Joe was great. He did what he said he was going to do. He did it when he said he was going to do it. He did it quickly and efficiently. There were no zingers or curve balls. I would happily do another deal with Joe, without reservation."

"Joe Ricciuti and the team at Ocean Block Capital have been a valued client of ours for years and always a pleasure to do business with. As the Buyer in a recent transaction, the team at OBC expeditiously negotiated a PSA and closed the escrow period in less than 30 days. They are always honest and transparent in their actions and we truly appreciate having the opportunity to work with them."
