LET US HELP YOU NEGOTIATE A WIN-WIN OUTCOME.

We engaged Jacob Reeson from Benchmark Business Sales & Valuations to manage the sale of one of our company owned service stations, and we were extremely pleased with both the way Jacob managed the process and the outcome achieved. From the outset, Jacob provided sound guidance regarding the site, the market and the overall sale process. He was well informed, diligent and demonstrated a strong commercial understanding of the arrangements and challenges that arose throughout the transaction. Importantly, Jacob remained focused on achieving the best possible outcome for us. He did not simply take the easy path by appeasing potential buyers when challenges emerged. At the same time, he ensured negotiations and discussions continued to progress without unnecessary disruption. Jacob was proactive in following up issues and was always easy to contact, responsive and professional in all dealings. We would have no hesitation in recommending Jacob and Benchmark and would certainly engage Jacob again should we have additional sites to sell in the future. - Anthony Gilbert (Petro National)

I cannot believe we finally did it. Thank you, John. I have known John for over 10 years, and during that time we have purchased several salons through him. After a decade, the time finally came for us to sell one. I am incredibly grateful for all the support and guidance he provided throughout the entire process. John is more than just a professional, he is a true friend and a gentleman. If you are considering selling your salon, I cannot recommend John Kasapi highly enough. - Milan Shah

J. Hoppe , 13 Dec 2018 ” I first met Michael from Benchmark Business after I made a phone call to enquire about Benchmark Business, systems and ended up making an appointment to meet with Michael, that was in August 2013. Michael travelled from Brisbane to Toowoomba to meet with me and I was able to find out what he thought he could to sell our business and he found out all he could about our business, my husband, myself and why we wanted to sell. I was quite impressed with what Michael thought he could do to sell our business but I had to convince my husband to go with him as after having a couple of not so good experiences with other big name brokers and feeling ripped off he was very hesitant. Michael was persistent and rang me on average every two months for a chat and to see how we were going and did not pressure me at all. I got so used to his calls if he missed ringing I would ring him and touch base as I did not want to lose contact with him as I felt I could trust him to do the right thing when we were ready to list our business. Early in 2015 we were ready to list the business and property for sale so Michael came and met with my husband Graham and myself and everything went from there, there was only a small fee for the putting together of the business information memorandum for prospective buyers to view, this I felt he had done a great job putting together, the information in it was spot on. There were a few interesting enquiries and many discussions with Michael and I always felt comfortable with him and knew he understood where I was coming from so trust was growing for both of us then in the end of March and early April thing started to get interesting with lots of information going back and forth for several interested parties and by June we thought we had a buyer but then they backed away just before settlement in July, what a disappointment for us and Michael as we had worked so hard. Michael followed up with another party that had shown quite good interest and with lots more to-ing and throwing of information and much patience from both Michael and ourselves we finally got an offer we were happy with and accepted and things progressed from there and Contracts were signed and our business was sold on the 4th of December 2015. During 2015, our eldest daughter was seriously ill and I had to spend many months in Cairns caring for her, which made it very hard at times, but Michael always asked how she was and how I was coping and offered great support, this I greatly appreciated. During the time spent working with Michael over two years to achieve a successful sale, I felt we had built a bond of respect, trust and honest with each other and a friend ship had formed between us which I hope continues for many years. I am thankful I went with my gut feelings and put my trust in Michael of Benchmark Business. ” Yours sincerely J. Hoppe

Eleni Kondo , 18 Mar 2019 To all prospective business sellers, I would have no hesitation in recommending Benchmark as your business agent. They were very professional, organise & provided a high level of communication & care. Our broker was there every step of the way through a somewhat difficult & prompt sale. I'm a former licensed real estate agent so have experience in the industry & have never had to outsource for a service I'm capable of doing but I'm very glad I did. Well worth the money. Thank you!

Keith was always a pleasure to deal with. He was always very responsive and made the sales process a lot easier for all parties involved. We would highly recommend him!

Thank you Jacob Your negotiation skill with the sale of Puma Nerang was impressive to say the least. The sale was a 3 way tussle between the Buyer, Seller and Landlord and multiple (including interstate) Solicitors,  Jacob handled it with calm expertise. Jacob even earned the respect of my solicitors for the way he negotiated the sale. Tony Wharton

We would highly recommend Jacob Reeson from benchmark for any dealings with service stations. His knowledge and experience resulted in us achieving the desired result efficiently and stress-free. - Shane Singh
