Marc Sax– Exceptional Business Broker Support from Start to Settlement Marc kept me informed every step of the way during the sale, including updates on conversations with solicitors. He followed through right to the endorsement settlement and was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process!

Ian Salter was the broker of the business I was purchasing, and I could not fault his efforts throughout the entire process. Communication between myself and the sellers made the process very easy. I would recommend Ian to both family and friends. - PAS

Lisa Oakes , 08 Apr 2019 I got a phone call out of the blue from Clyde who said that he had a buyer and really wanted me to list my salon so that he could introduce them to my salon, it was all quite random but the timing was perfect because I was scheduled to have surgery early in the new year and would be out of action for months after the surgery. I was a little dubious that there really was a buyer, but I actually received an offer the day after I signed the agreement! Things definitely weren’t all smooth sailing though. The contract period went over the Christmas break and then the buyer had to go overseas for 6 weeks and all the accountants and solicitors were also on holidays! I thought the sale was off however Clyde was very calm and reassured me that the sale would proceed when the buyer was back from overseas, which it did. Now I can focus on my recovery without the stress of running the business, awesome job!

I spoke to John a few years ago and when it was time to sell, I immediately reached out to him. We listed and sold in a very short period and he had the perfect buyer ready to go. As we approached settlement, the buyer communicated to me that they were in the process of purchasing another business with a different broker. The buyer was highly impressed and appreciative that our transaction transpired so quickly and seamlessly. This was down to John’s efficiency, management and expertise. John was outstanding and an absolute pleasure to work with. He achieved a phenomenal price, and an amazing result! -Jayne Fenton | March 2022 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

Eddie Griffith , 12 Aug 2020 Two years ago I reached the stage where I felt that I should look to sell the business and started meeting with business brokers who advertised in the newspaper’s classified and on Google. Information Memorandum showing what the business had done in the past, the future potential and the asset/liability position. Things were looking promising. We discussed a marketing plan along with information memos showing what the business had done in the past the future potential and the normal assets and liabilities. Things looked good. Ian is extremely adept at strategically managing the negotiations, assessing the genuineness of prospective buyers and then closing the best deal for his client.

Ian understood the opportunity and potential for my business and then presented this to prospective buyers in the best light. Ian Haggerty receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

I am pleased to provide this recommendation for Mr Varun Pahwa of Medical Business Broker following his recent business appraisal and review of our medical practice. Throughout the process, Varun demonstrated a high level of professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail. He took the time to understand the unique aspects of our practice and conducted a thorough assessment of our business operations, financial performance, and growth opportunities. The appraisal was comprehensive, well structured, and delivered with clear and practical recommendations. His insights were valuable in helping us better understand our practice's strengths, identify areas for improvement, and consider strategies for future development. Varun's knowledge of the healthcare sector and general practice business environment was evident throughout the engagement. I found him to be approachable, objective, and highly professional in all interactions. The quality of his work and the value of the appraisal exceeded our expectations. I would have no hesitation in recommending Varun Pahwa and Medical Business Broker to other practice owners seeking professional business appraisal, valuation, or advisory services. – Dr Pejman Hajbabaie – GP Principal

I have purchased several salons through John Kasapi over the years, and he is always keeping an eye out for opportunities that align with my goals. When Rokstar became available, John immediately recognised its potential and presented it to me. I am delighted to have added this fantastic salon to my portfolio and am incredibly grateful that John gave me the opportunity to invest in such a quality business. His industry knowledge, connections and understanding of what I am looking for have made him a trusted advisor throughout my acquisition journey. Thank you again, John.
