Anthony Garistina, a partner and one of the original founders of Metro Realty Services, LLC has been principally engaged in the sale, leasing and management of industrial / commercial property for over 25 years. Prior to Metro Realty’s formation in the fall of 1998 Mr. Garistina had been a partner of Grubb Ellis / Island Realty, at that time the largest commercial real estate brokerage on Long Island. He entered the real estate business in 1987 after having owned and operated a general contracting business for 11 years. Mr. Garistina has participated in numerous industrial / commercial transactions both on and off Long Island. In 2009 he exclusively represented Sunshine Pride’s Dairy in their search for a facility in Virginia, which culminated with their purchase of an 87,500 square foot facility on 9.5 acres in Winchester, VA. With many of the companies he has represented, that representation evolved into lasting relationships, which in turn resulted in multiple transactions over time.
