Australia’s Business Brokers

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!

We contacted Tu Nguyen from Benchmark Business Sales & Valuations after our previous business brokerage firm tried to sell our takeaway business with no luck and lack of communication. Tu was very informative from the onset and had a lot of knowledge and experience in selling businesses and he guided us through the whole sale process through to settlement without any issues. He was always available anytime of the day and even on weekends when we needed to speak with him. Nothing was too hard for Tu, and we felt very comfortable and in good hands with Tu and would highly recommend him and Benchmark Business Sales & Valuations to any potential sellers looking to sell their business. - Gordon & Rita

Julie Griggs , 18 Mar 2019 Benchmark were a great help in the buying process. We had to finalize a new lease which took some time however they were always on top of things and even helped get us cheaper rent from the landlord.

Melinda Luchini , 18 Mar 2019 “Benchmarks brokers experience is famous throughout the industry. We knew they specialized in salon and clinic sales, so when we were ready to sell we knew whom to contact. When we listed the salon on the market we let the broker know that we had only a few months to get it sold. They delivered a buyer and a contract almost instantly and sold it record time. The biggest concern I had was the landlord being overseas and having a strict approval process. However Benchmark managed to get the buyer approved and finalize the lease within the time frame, I now get more time with my young family. Thanks again”

Sam & Caitlin , 11 Aug 2020 Thanks, Nikki, for taking care of me through this very tricky journey of buying a hair & Beauty business in the middle of Covid-19. We are not sure how I would have managed without your help and guidance. Here we are today the proud owners of a fabulous business and it was you that made that happen for us. It was a pleasure to work with you and I look forward to our next venture together.

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.

From the outset Ian exhibited genuine professionalism, patience, integrity and knowledge associated with all aspects relating to a sale of a complex business.  He was always proactive and resilient. It is my view that Ian represents a great value when engaging a broker to sell a business. He is excellent in negotiations and presentations and have the competence to attract the right buyers from the appropriate industry.  On a personal level Ian has a great sense of humour and easy to work with.  All of which help in making a stressful time easier.

"We received a post card in the mail and I was initially skeptical of this as it said that John had someone wanting to buy my business, however I gave John a call and he appraised the business and he said his buyer was keen. Within two days we had done an inspection and I received an offer. At the start I wanted to be in control but quickly discovered that I needed to leave it to the expert. John was a master at getting the job done and managing the process until the very end. I am extremely happy, I got a fantastic price, smooth quick sale and I got to stay on as a hairdresser with the new owner. It was truly the result that I didn’t even contemplate was possible until I spoke with John. I was quite emotional about selling my pride and joy but John held my hand through the entire process and I highly recommend selling through Benchmark." - Larissa Thripp | 11 Sep 2019 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
