“I’ve known Adam Petriella for 13 years and am happy to provide a reference letter for him.[…]Oaktree manages a significant portfolio of assets around the country.[…]Adam has demonstrated on numerous occasions that he is able to understand the nuances of a property and a market. He is backed up by significant resources at his firm. I have always found that Adam is able to ask intelligent questions, process the answers and give a reasoned response. While he possesses a good deal of insight, he is not one to foist his opinions. Rather, he is able to provide his opinion in a manner that fosters dialogue and helps an investor make a good decision. I offer my support of Adam as an investment professional with no reservations.”

Dear Adam,
Thank you very much for all your great work in getting the loan closed for my listing of 21 units in Glendale.
Given the nature of the market in general and this property specifically, it took a tremendous amount of expertise and professionalism on your part to get the deal done.
As in investment broker, I especially appreciated working with someone with your maturity and deal making sensitivity. Because this was an acquisition, your ability to handle the buyer and seller issues, in addition to the lender issues, was especially important. I know you worked hard to lesson the impact of the lender's heightened underwriting standards, ensuring that the deal stayed on track.
Please also thank Michelle for all her dedication to this transaction.
You were both a pleasure to work with, and I will recommend you to my clients.
Sincerely
Barry Gordon
