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.

"Thank you John. I have now sold down my chain of salons over the last 10 years. It was a very emotional experience for my partner and I to do so therefore. We put all our trust and faith in John to get the job done and I must say it was an amazing whirl wind event.  With extensive due diligence, finance difficulties and 2 shopping centre leases to get through we were constantly worried that we would never see the end. But with john's expertise we finally reached settlement after he helped the buyer to successfully jumping over these hurdles. I strongly recommend that you have John in the middle of any business transaction he is a real problem solver and miracle worker." - Matt Glyn | 06 Feb 2020 John Kasapi receives another Benchmark Business Sales Review.

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.

I don't even know where to start. Had my salon listed with someone else but didn't get any results. Found John Kasapi who delivered a few buyers straight away. Then the games began with our landlord. He was a nightmare. There were rent increases, yearly term changes, option problem, wrong names on documents, no one returning our calls, terrible lawyers involved. However, one phenomenal business broker pulled it all together and somehow got the sale to settlement. Amazing job John. I would highly recommend John to anyone selling a Salon and already have!

Boyan Ristovski , 18 Mar 2019 Thank you very much for all you support during the process. We could not have asked for a better broker or a more patient person to deal with during the long 6 month process it took to get to settlement but we are extremely happy with the outcome.  You were always available for us and we appreciate that. Thank you to you and your company for seeing this trough to the end.

Job Well Done. I listed our Equipment Hire business with Brian Sander from Benchmark’s Adelaide Office. Brian handled the sale with professionalism and skill.
