TESTIMONIALS
“After suffering serious financial trouble and lengthy construction delays, The Palladio, a 13-story condominium tower in Reno, Nevada, went into a court ordered receivership. The lenders, Merrill Lynch Capital, hired Allco Construction to get the project back on track and completed. Within a very short time frame, Allco was able to regain the momentum lost on the project, maintain a workable budget within the constraints of Merrill Lynch Capital, and complete the project to the satisfaction of the many home owners who had been waiting over 18 months to move into their new homes. As a representative of the receivership, I was very impressed by Allco’s ability to take over such a difficult project and make it a success.”
“I have worked with Bob Herman for over 10 years. When we’re up against a tight deadline or budget, there was only one person to call. In Carson City, we took an 80,000 square-foot warehouse and transformed it into the Fandango Casino in a record time and budget. Bob was very instrumental in the successful completion of this project. I look forward to working with Bob with his new company, Allco Construction, Inc.”
""I had 3 months to complete the poker room for a tournament sponsored by Jennifer Harmen. I asked Bob Herman if he felt that we could make the schedule. He assured me that we could make it. Bob pulled the team together and with great leadership not only beat the schedule but came in under budget. All while in the middle of a complete tower room remodel for us.""
