We recently rented a few spaces with Crossman and so far communication has been good. As we get deeper into our build out we have uncovered a few issues that they have continued to work with us on.

Have listings but can never get them to call you back. And say the listings aren't available when u do get a hold of someone even though it's been months and the sign is still up. You'd think you'd want my money!

Critical: Professionalism As a veteran owned and operated franchise, Sandra Woodworth told us we were not what the Bardmoor promenade in Largo Florida was looking for. They wanted 'national chains'. She cut us off and hung up. Three years later there are so many store fronts still sitting empty. Thank you for treating veterans the way you did!
