“Wow wow wow they truly are the best in the business. Benchmark delivered record sales on two of my best stores and were an absolute delight to deal with. My sale was a seamless and I can definitely see why they are the best in the country. When it's time to sell my chain there I will be calling Benchmark. They had the buyer straight away and we put two of my sites to contract and managed the entire process which involved lease negotiable, name agreement, product distribution contracts and so much more.

Seller , 29 Sep 2020 She was the obvious choice when I decided to sell due to family commitments and she stepped up straight away. She had a lot of the paperwork still on file and quickly moved to finding a buyer. The buyer made an offer and I accepted – then Covid-19 hit! Due to the uncertainty the buyer pulled out. Nikki advised that she would return her deposit but would speak to her when everything calmed down. Nikki re-engaged the buyer, the buyer agreed to proceed and Nikki reinstated the contract.  The outcome was that my salon sold yesterday and I am delighted. Nikki did an excellent job at keeping the buyer updated and she assessed the timing perfectly to resurrect the deal AND got me a great result too! If I had another broker working on this (with less skill and experience), I am not sure the outcome would have been the same. Delighted!

“Everything has fallen into place, I’m a very proud owner of my own salon. I’ve been wanting to own my own salon for some time but never clicked with anything. Then Benchmark contacted me about an opportunity and I grabbed it with both hands and I’m glad I did. Thanks for all your help and guidance.“ - Marigold Lukin | 18 Mar 2019 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

"I have been looking to buy a hairdressing salon and contacted Benchmark. John was my broker, I knew exactly what I wanted, (and what I didn’t want). John knew which salon would be perfect for me and didn’t waste my time with salons I wouldn’t be interested in for the sake of showing me salons. I am so incredibly happy with my purchase ;-) On top of that throughout the process John was very helpful and kept me informed on a regular basis of how the purchase was progressing. It’s great owning my own boutique Salon again...  (sixth) and John was the person who found the salon that suited my needs" - Rebecca Kratz  | 19 May 2020 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.
