Joe is a seasoned real estate professional, who is one of only a small group that can creatively structure a deal when it appears there is no solution. This statement covers his ability to restructure leases at improved rents for a tenant, as well as creatively reaching a solution to terminate unproductive leases.

I’ve known Joe since 1996 and consider him an expert in corporate real estate transactions. He is honest, reliable, and has an impeccable moral character.
Tom A.
Executive Vice President
Joe is a quick study that is results-driven. He is not the type to make a career out of analyzing something for a long time. Joe always produced a large volume of quality deals. He was a great resource for me while I worked with him at Wal-Mart in their real estate department.
Kenneth G.
Senior Director
Joseph’s work can be relied upon to be with proper knowledge, detail, good communication, and integrity.
Jerry H.
Business Owner
Finding myself in need of an attorney who could help me finalize some estate trust planning, I asked a close friend and city councilman if he might recommend a good lawyer to assist me. He recommended Joseph Hudack, an attorney he knew to be knowledgeable, extremely thorough, and one who provided fair and “reasonable fees.
Now that the projects have been completed with Mr. Hudack leading me through the entire procedure, I can only express my appreciation for the following truth – Joe Hudack proved everything that my friend had stated in his recommendation to be true. I would join in making such a recommendation to others in search of a true professional. Great value from a thorough, knowledgeable, and ethical legal professional.
Roberto P.
Vice President
Joe is a senior commercial real estate negotiator. His expertise not only ranges from real estate portfolio management but can handle complicated lease terminations in the most difficult markets.
Jeff K.
Manager
Having known Joe for over 10 years now, I can confidently say that he is a man of integrity and a true real estate professional. I enjoyed working with him and, during our time together at Walmart, knew him to be an exemplary Walmart associate, one who embodied the company’s culture in word and deed.
Michael B.
Managing Principal
Having known Joe for the past 13 years, I can say without a doubt that he is the “go-to” person for getting things done. Joe’s professional approach to all of his deals as well as his market and investment knowledge makes working with Joe a great pleasure.
