Buyer , 25 Jun 2019 “I spoke about a year ago enquiring about a hair salon in the western Suburbs. We discussed location and she told me I had just missed a couple of salons in the area now under contract. I told her what I was looking for and she promised to call me if she had the “right fit’ of salon for me. About 2 month ago, she called me and invited me to look at something. She provided all the information quickly and we made an offer. Today, I am now the proud owner of a stunning new salon and I am so delighted that Nikki and I spoke as it is just perfect for what we were looking for. Nikki, I appreciate you keeping me in your mind and matching us to the right salon. I hope to work with you again in the future”

Maria Chadwick , 13 Dec 2018 I used another broker before Benchmark and they did nothing. John and Iain jumped straight on board and worked their magic!! The business was only listed for 2 days before they had a buyer interested and committed. The process was interesting especially as I was overseas but we managed to get through it successfully. I’m happy as I haven’t had to say goodbye to the business I’ve been able to stay on and work part time for the new owner a great result for all parties
