LET US HELP YOU NEGOTIATE A WIN-WIN OUTCOME.

Rebekah Pike , 08 Apr 2019 I was getting a bit worried about Benchmark not being able to deliver a sale for me. My lease was nearly up and I needed to get out ASAP without walking away from the business I had built up. They finally pulled a rabbit out of their hat and found a buyer that took over the business just before the end of lease and he helped them get a brand new lease and approval from the landlord. I was in New Zealand for the entire process and they went above and beyond by becoming our chauffeur and picked us up from the airport and drove us to the salon on the day of settlement to finalise the sale. A great result in the end!

"Benchmark were extremely helpful in following up on my requests and getting all the information we needed during the purchase.

Jacob was extremely helpful and knowledgeable throughout the entire sale process. He always returned my enquiries as soon as he could. He always remained calm and offered sound advice whenever an issue arose.

Suzette Jones , 01 May 2018 Wow Wow Wow This process was a whole lot easy than I ever thought it would be – I listed and sold within a matter of weeks. I had heard so many horror stories but my sale was a breeze. I had been in my salon for over 25 years and it was my baby! To finally come to the decision to sell my salon was a very emotional period for me and even more of a struggle was to find someone that I could trust and understood my concerns and needs! I had to know that I was going to work with a broker who understood me and our industry and wasn’t just full of hot air and over promising and under delivers. I had done my research and couldn’t have been happier with my choice to use Benchmark, the process was seamless and before you knew it, it was SOLD!!! I was even overseas while the settlement happened, this just shows how hard Benchmark worked on getting the salon sold quickly and how well they managed the entire sale, and they really do have the contacts within the industry and get the job done. Wow Wow Wow!!!

"We have built a solid business relationship with John and Benchmark over the last few years and have complete confidence in him as a broker. We regard our company as one of the best in the business and we wouldn’t consider using any other broker other than John, he holds the same values as us towards our business and it’s as if he is part of our company, he always has our best interests at the forefront. During this transaction John sold one of our flagship stores and from the very beginning John was impressively professional which allowed us the time to continue running the other 200 stores we have. John’s number one attribute is his determination to get the result that is best for all parties, his knowledge of the industry is second to none and I wish I had his contact list!!! He has endless qualified buyers and that’s all we needed to know, that if one buyer doesn’t work out he has another person waiting in the wings. Great work John thanks once again." - Tony Lattouf, Joseph Lattouf, Emad Nayef and Romina Fiore | 01 Feb 2018 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

Shane Ayre , 13 Dec 2018 I would just like to say a very big thank you to you personally and to Benchmark for handling the recent and very successful acquisition of Akwa Worx & Akwa Facility Maintenance Pty Ltd to ASX listed De.Mem Ltd. The whole process was very quick and efficient and the drive from you with my instructions to do was done in a very professional manner. Once again thank you and I would have no concerns giving recommendation to any of my colleges should they wish to go forth with a sale. Ian Haggerty receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
