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!

"Thank you, John, for getting my business sold. John had a buyer straight away to Purchase our business. The process did take some time going through leasing which painfully long. The shopping Centre took 8 weeks to process the application and then with the Covid 19 we nearly lost the buyer but John was straight on to it making the necessary call to The Centre to make sure The buyers were approved. To finish off we settled the business the same day salons got told to close. Remarkable effort during these crazy times." John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

I really can’t thank John enough for his determination in seeing this through over a most difficult time that I’ve ever seen in 45years of hairdressing. 35 of those years in business and selling in this climate has been challenging. Well…. You certainly showed us all, that “Determination” is your middle name! After having 2 other brokers attempting this feat and not being successful I was ready to give up. Then I spoke to John and he brought back all my faith in being able to sell my business and go into retirement. Thank you again. You certainly are the broker I would recommend to any of my friends that are ready to sell and move into a new face in life.  -Tatjana Vaupel | May 2022 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
