Coastal Business Brokers

Nice Things Clients Say About Us

Coastal sold my specialised business for $30,000 more than I would have got for it and did it in just a month."
Ken Sutherland,
Seller, Construction Hydraulics, Maroochydore
 
"We were new to Australia and quite scared we'd be dudded by someone unscrupulous. The opposite happened. Coastal made us feel completely secure and did all they could to help us. They have been extremely good to us and are the first people I'd turn to if I were buying or selling a business. We can honestly say we are 100% satisfied with everything they did for us."
Tony Williams-Pugh
Camphor Cottages, Montville

"On top of the professionalism and honesty, their business advice was great too. They narrowed down exactly what we wanted, only showed us quality businesses and we are delighted with the business we bought through them. If you're new here, my recommendation is to talk to Coastal Business Brokers."
Ian Lyall
Buyer, Milan's on Buderim

"They were efficient, helpful and professional... they did it thoroughly and handled all the many details involved. If I were selling or buying another business I'd certainly be using Coast Business Brokers."
Ron Heaton,
Buyer, Valdos Sea Food

"During the three months we spent looking for a business we tried every business agency on the Sunshine Coast. Time and time again we returned to Coastal Biz. I take my hat off to them. They continually presented us with businesses that they thought would be of interest, (and many were!). Interestingly, the business we finally purchased was a fair way away from where we started, and I am glad we listened to Coastal's advice as we are now blasting ahead, and having a great time."
Mike Hitchcock and Cathy Smith
Buyers, Wok in Noosa

We will certainly use you again in the future.
With our very best wishes,

Lee, George, Angus & Sonia Wilkinson

"Brendon was bloody fantastic! I can't speak highly enough of him. He thought the business was worth more than I was asking for it and he actually got me the price he thought it was worth, all in week!. I've sold several properties and a couple of businesses before but this was the first time I genuinely felt the sales-person or broker really had my interests at heart. It was professional, easy and quick - like a dream come true. Deal with him. He's great".

Gary Lenski
Seller, Jani King


"I don't have enough praise for him. He is honest, straightforward and his integrity shows! He's on the ball and he was like a breath of fresh air compared with all the other brokers I've ever dealt with. Brendon will definitely get the sale of my next business".
Chris Bracks
Seller, Run Ragged


"He was fine - cheery, personable and easy to get along with. There were no problems and everything went as expected - just how it ought to be".
Inga Howarth
Buyer, Run Ragged


"We would never have dreamt the business would sell for as much as Brendon said it would, but it did and we were thrilled! In 2 weeks the deal was done and not only that, the new owner is very happy too as he has already improved the business. Brendon's integrity is beyond doubt, he knows what people want, he's thorough, he makes sure of the facts and he knows how to close a deal. He's got our vote".
Joy Martinelli
Seller, Complete Garden Edging

 
"They (Brendon and Grant) were professional, tolerant, they listened and kept in touch and got me what I wanted in a business. They feel like friends, as if they're part of our business. They cared about the vendor too and knew how to deal with both sides with respect. They keep in touch and we would always deal with them in any venture we went into".
Dora Johnson
Buyer, Big Garden Centre


"I liked dealing with them and we will do business with them in the future. They're very professional, they kept in continuous touch and were quick to sort out any problems or queries, and they're relaxed - there was no pressure - the whole thing was just the way you want it to be".
Stephen Arme
Buyer, Cotton Tree Backpackers


It wouldn't have got off the ground without them. They told us exactly how it was and there were no surprises .. it wasn't like doing business at all! But the best thing was the way they followed up and helped after the sale .. they came in, helped us with setting up the accounts and the GST and were generally just 'here' for us. They're terrific .. you couldn't get any better".

Gary Ellen
Buyer, Network/Go Video, Buderim


"There was no fuss, no bother and it happened very quickly - they had a committed buyer for us within a week! I found Coastal very receptive and they covered every detail".

Nick Hansa,

On Louis Steyn:

"Well Louis, I've got to say thanks so much for your understanding of what I was looking for in a business.
I wouldn't have thought of your recommendation myself but now that I have taken over and settled in, I am grateful for your suggestion that I take a look at the opportunity that came up just at the right time.
In my years in business myself, I have learnt that truly listening to your clients is very important and also very rare and so I'm glad our paths crossed in my search for a suitable new venture.
I'm sure we will do more business together in the future.
Cheers and all the best."
Mike Barton
Buyer, Sunstate Stamps

"I would like to put on record the excellent service I received from Louis Steyn during the recent sale of my business Tinga Tinga Pty Ltd.
Through out my association with Louis I found him to be courteous, considerate, diligent & with a most professional attitude.
At a time of great stress Louis handled potential buyers with great skill & diplomacy. Louis' knowledge of "standard Conditions of Sale" is fantastic; he was able to guide the deal through several sticky patches.
Many thanks Louis for a job brilliantly done.
Kindest Regards"

John Channer
Seller, Tinga Tinga
 
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank Louis Steyn from Coastal Business Brokers, who recently acted as our broker in the sale of our business, "Premier Fencing".
Louis' professionalism and dedication made the job of selling our business an easy one.  His knowledge and guidance helped ensure a smooth, trouble free transaction from initial contact through to settlement.  His friendly attitude throughout the sale process made us feel at ease at a stressful time.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Louis for any business broking matters."

Toni and Bill Gorman
Sellers, Premier Fencing

 
"Thank you for working so harmoniously and expertly with us. Thank you especially for your first phone call. It showed commitment and memory for your clients. We are thoroughly enjoying our new role"
Wendy and Gordon Burr
Buyers, Pelican Waters Child Care Centre


"Just a note to say thank you for assistance in selling Fit as a Fiddle. Bryan and I were very happy with the outcome of the sale and know that we could not have done it without your professional and out of hours support. Prior to this exercise we would have believed that business brokers were a "waste of money", however, after our dealings with you we are now of the belief that you are very deserving of the commission you earned. Your knowledge and the fact that you actually helped us to calculate and present the figures in the correct format played a very big part in the sale being successful."
Janine Sinclair
Seller, Fit as a Fiddle


"Thank you for the excellent service I received throughout the process of the sale of my business.
Thanks for keeping me up to date and following up on all aspects throughout. Your professionalism and courtesy made selling my business a simple process without wasting any time."

Gary Back, Seller
Pearce Engineering


"A big thank-you for the successful and quick sale of my business, Kashbrooke Distribution. Louis was the consultant appointed to handle the sale. His approach was efficient and calm, especially when I was getting stressed!!!! I was kept fully up to date with all proceedings, calls were always returned quickly and meetings ran on time. I would certainly recommend Coastal Business Brokers again and Louis Steyn as a helpful, diligent consultant. Many thanks".
Greig Sisman, Seller
Kashbrooke Distributions


This testimonial pertains to the dealings I had with Louis Steyn recently in the purchase of my business here on the Sunshine Coast. In dealing with Louis, I found him to be punctual and reliable, he acted professionally and efficiently in all aspects with good attention to detail. Obviously he is well versed in the intricacies of Sale Contracts and was able to advise and explain in plain English any questions and queries I had in regard to the Purchase Contract. Nothing was too much trouble for Louis and he acted in the interest of both the vendor and the purchaser. Should I ever look to sell or purchase another business, I would be happy to use Louis again.
Thanks once again Louis.
Kind Regards

Dave Cunningham
Buyer, Bent Plastics


My recent dealings with Louis Steyn from Coastal Business Brokers were of a positive nature and I would have no hesitation in recommending him. My recent purchase was stress free and ran like clock work.
I found Louis to be very efficient, organised and proficient in this field and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking at doing business dealings with him.
I am more than happy to speak to any new prospective clients and can be contacted on 0402 001 179.
Thank you again and I hope to do business dealings with you again in the future.

On Leanne Petherbridge:

"From appraisal to settlement, Leanne at Coastal Business Brokers was up-front and professional at every step of the sale of our business. It was refreshing to find a broker that kept us informed throughout the sale and that was honest! Based on our experience, I have no hesitation in recommending Leanne and Coastal Business Brokers."
Peter Gandolfi,
Seller, Country Attitude

"When buying our business in 2005, Leanne at Coastal Business Brokers was the most personable and trustworthy of brokers we dealt with, so four years later when we came to sell our business there was no question that Leanne would be our broker. Leanne presented our business for sale in a very professional manner, with effective advertising, and provided valuable advice and service. We would recommend Leanne at Coastal Business Brokers to anybody buying or selling a business, or as in our case - both!"
Jenni Sadler
Buyer and Seller, Austech Toner Solutions

"We listed our business with Kim and Leanne Petherbridge at Coastal Business Brokers in May 2009. Initially they provided us with a valuation which we found was similar to another valuation provided by another broker we were considering using. We discussed a listing price ... and we were very pleased and surprised to receive a solid offer the day after listing. Within 2 days of negotiating we settled on the final selling price which we were very happy with. That was when Leanne went to work organising everyone from accountants, solicitors, banks and our franchisor to ensure the sale went ahead. There were a couple of times when we were certain the buyer would not settle, but Leanne pursued every avenue to enable the contract to go through. I would have no hesitation in recommending Leanne, Kim and Coastal Business Brokers to anyone considering buying or selling a business."
Wayne and Helen Findley
Sellers, Swimart Maroochydore

"Although initially we were reluctant to entrust the marketing of our franchises to a broker, Leanne proved her abilities with the successful sale of an existing franchised area for one of Optimum's franchisees.

Since then Leanne has shown great marketing skills and professionalism and allayed all of our initial fears by keeping us fully informed throughout the hassle-free process of the sale of a second franchised area.
Leanne's willingness to work as a team member towards a common goal for both the vendor and the buyer is one of her great strengths and reflects well on her personally and upon your company over all.
Optimum Cleaning looks forward to a continued successful association with Coastal Business Brokers and would recommend Leanne to any person considering the sale of their business."

Murray Whyte (Director)
Seller, Optimum Cleaning

"Paul and I would like to thank you for all the work and effort you have put into the recent sale of our cleaning business. Your enthusiasm, professionalism and diligence in achieving the sale were impressive. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending you to others hoping to sell their business and we wish you the best in the future"
Fiona and Paul Mason
Seller, Wolf Industries


"Just a small note to thank you for the wonderful effort in securing a sale for my 7-Eleven Store. You have conducted yourself in a professional and diligent manner and this has obviously helped in making this sale possible. I am looking forward to taking my family for our long awaited holiday. Thank you again and all the very best."
Ray De Jonk
Seller, 7-Eleven Maroochydore.


"Leanne is a highly tuned business broker. She was quick to understand the essence of our business and convey this to potential buyers. We were 100% happy with the process which led to the sale of our business."

Rochelle Masson & Moira McCafferty,
Sellers, Aldon Tutoring, Sunshine Coast

I was very happy with Leanne's professional, ethical and easy-to-approach style. I was new to buying a business and did not know all the intricate details, Leanne was always happy to assist me when needed and gave solid, sensible advice.
Leanne 'saved the day' on many occasions, with practical suggestions and assistance which reflects her long-spanning career in business brokering. When I needed more information on the business, Leanne was quick to return my calls, and had all required documents delivered to me within 48 hours. The purchase of the business went smoothly and this was largely due to Leanne's support during the process.
I never felt pressured at any stage of the negotiations to purchase a business and Leanne presented businesses to me that suited my experience and working criteria.
If you asked me to recommend a business broker on the Sunshine Coast to either buy or sell a business through? I would highly recommend Coastal Business Brokers and Leanne Petherbridge for professional, honest and down-to-earth local brokerage advice.

Annastacia Oliver
Buyer, Pikki Street Corporate Centre

"I'm so pleased that I chose Leanne Petherbridge at Coastal Business Brokers for the sale of my cleaning business. I had considered attempting to sell my business privately thinking that with an agent, the commission charged would decrease my outcome considerably. Fortunately I followed up a friend's recommendation to contact Leanne. During our consultation she showed me the real value of my service, also more than one option to present the business for a maximum return, in doing so making it attractive to more prospective buyers. I had a signed contract of sale in 7 weeks at the advertised price, with only 2 paid ads and a free Editorial. If you are looking to sell your business I recommend talking to Leanne first, you won't be sorry you did."
Kathy Canaple
Seller, Kathy's Home Help

"Just a quick note to say thanks for all your help with the purchase of the paddleboat business. Your professional manner ensured everything went smoothly. I am very happy with the business and have been flat out through the school holidays." 
Deanne McAlister
Buyer, Sunshine Paddle Boats

"We would like to express our gratitude to you for your professionalism and attention to detail during our recent purchase of "Mrs Flannery's -Maroochydore". 
Your unbiased advice and liaison between Vendor and Purchaser to reach a satisfactory agreement was greatly appreciated. 
We would not hesitate to use your services again and can recommend Coastal Business Brokers to any prospective clients looking to secure a business venture on the Sunshine Coast".

Buyer, Mrs Flannery's The Grocers - Maroochy

On Brett Barton:

"We have just purchased a business through Brett Barton and he was fantastic to deal with. Brett always kept us informed from start to finish and made the entire transaction smooth sailing."
Damien & Kerry @ Century 21 Maroochydore

"We have been looking for a small business to purchase on the Sunshine Coast for some time and approached Brett about a computer sales and service business in Beerwah. All of the usual things that one can expect from a broker were done to perfection but we were particularly impressed with the high level of personal attention and interest as the transaction proceeded. For example, we had no difficulty contacting Brett - he actually returns calls. Any issues that arose were promptly dealt with and we completed the purchase with a high level of satisfaction. Brett has a very common sense approach to his customers and is very easy to get along with. We would have no hesitation recommending Brett to anyone interested in either buying or selling a business. We will be looking to expand in about a year's time and our first contact will be to Brett."
Daniel Moodie, General Manager,
Total Micro Systems

Thank you for your efforts in selling our business. We appreciate your willingness to do everything to ensure a smooth and easy transition. Your cheerful attitude was pleasant and a great help in maintaining a relaxed atmosphere in our dealings with the new owners. We wish you continuing success in your future dealings.
Bert & Doris Kompara
Sellers, South East Trading

Thank you for your efforts in selling my business, you have a wonderful attitude and jolly manner. I appreciate your interest in my business and your ability to help keep what could be an extremely stressful transition on track and right on time. I have recommended you already and would be delighted to work with you again.
Chris Mooney
Seller, Worker's Kitchen


Just a quick note to say thank you for all the help you gave us with the purchase of the business, we found you very helpful and knowledgeable going out of your way to to ensure all went through without a hitch. Thank you.
Kind regards.

Lee & Sue Wright
Buyers, Animal Affair


I recently purchased the Junction Laundromat through Coastal Business Brokers. Brett Barton was the salesperson and I found him very helpful and courteous. When I required further information regarding the business, Brett was quick to retrieve the necessary information and return my calls and emails.
I had been looking for a business for some time and found being on Brett's mailing list very helpful to learn of other businesses on the market. While looking for a business I had approached other business brokers and found their service less than satisfactory and therefore I can recommend Coastal Business Brokers to others who are looking to sell or purchase a business on the coast.
I would be very happy to deal with the company again in the future.
Regards..

Gladwynne Malligan
Buyer, Junction Laundromat


I recently sold my business with Coastal business brokers. My salesperson Brett Barton did a wonderful job. It was a trying time for all involved and Brett ensured that it all went through smoothly and no one got too stressed. He also went out of his way several times to attend meetings, organise repairs and to pick up and drop off keys, mostly outside of normal business hours. As I was interstate for the final sale and handover, Brett was relied upon for any last minute requests which he handled without fuss. Brett liaised with the buyer and also my solicitor to finally tie the deal together where many others would have surely lost patience.
I thoroughly recommend Coastal Business Brokers and Brett Barton to assist with the sale of your business.

Juan Lawrie
Seller, Junction Laundromat 

I met Brett when I listed my business (Tin Can Bay Hardware) for sale through his employer Coastal Business Brokers.  I found Brett to be very honest and professional in his approach.  He worked hard to find a buyer and his negotiation skills are sound.  I have no hesitation in recommending Brett to you as I believe he would be an asset to your business.
John Kremastos
Seller, Tin Can Bay Hardware

"I am very grateful for the work that Brett did on our behalf during the sale of Fried Green Tomatoes in March 2009.
Much of his work was completed in trying circumstances owing to the drawn out and frustrating process presented to us by both our landlord and centre management. Brett's relaxed nature and assuring words were of great comfort at times when, because of these frustrations, the sale looked like falling through.
I also appreciated Brett's ability to combine his great sense of humour with professional conduct.
At one of the worst times in recent history owing to the world financial crisis I consider myself fortunate to have sold in a reasonable period of time, at a reasonable price, well done Brett."
Andrew Collins
Seller, Fried Green Tomatoes

On Craig Campbell:

“Good morning Craig. This is just a note to thank you for all your help with the sale of our business. My wife and I have sold business in the past and we both agree that your level of professionalism and work ethic has been a refreshing change. Everything from your long distance trip to see a buyer personally and resolve any issues to your timely and accurate advice during the sale was all very much appreciated. You have been a broker that has truly earned his commission, and we will not hesitate to recommend you to any of our associates. Sincerely.”
D C Payne
Sellers, Zen & Voko Fashion Stores

“Recently we made the purchase of 2 bakeries in Caloundra, Goldstar Bakeries. It was our dream to own and run our very own business for many years and thankfully with the help of Coastal Business Brokers it was all made possible for us, with such ease.  A huge thank you to Craig Campbell for providing us with all the information we required and the support we needed to complete the purchase.
Craig was tremendous in so many ways and was very approachable at all times in regard to anything we were concerned about or queried in any way.  The timeframe we allowed for purchasing the business was limited, but Craig managed to prompt the required people to continue the necessary details we needed to allow a smooth process, and to provide a final purchase without delay.  He was very understanding when negotiating and was very fair to both parties involved.  On completion of the purchase, Craig continued make contact with us to check if everything was in order and a general how are things going phone call, this was really appreciated by us both.
Overall we cannot speak highly enough for the company and especially for Business Broker, Craig Campbell, our dreams were made real overnight with his genuine encouragement and assistance.
Thank you very much Craig and Coastal Business Brokers.
Kind Regards”
Paul and Kerryn Sherrington
Buyers, Goldstar Bakeries

"I recently sold my business through Craig Campbell at Coastal Business Brokers, having tried various unsuccessful methods in attempting to sell my business, I was pleased with the outcome Craig achieved in such a short amount of time, and more importantly, at the right price. His professional approach, honesty and integrity was second to none and I would have no hesitation in recommending to anyone wishing to sell their business in today's environment".
Jenny Picken
Seller, On-Shore Cafe
                                                                                   

"We recently experienced a hassle free settlement on our retail footwear business and would recommend Craig's services to any business owner wishing to sell their business. Craig was always punctual, well-presented and communicated clearly and frequently with us. He used innovative ideas to present our business to the market and we felt he really tried to wring maximum value out of our advertising budget. He spent it as carefully as if it were his own funds! Two weeks after listing our business with Craig, the news of the global financial crisis hit the media and we became quite concerned about its selling potential in such a projected gloomy economic climate. Craig reassured us and kept on doing what he does well and we had a contract on the table just seven weeks later and at a price that was higher than we'd dared to hope to achieve. A big thank you to Craig for his services and if we ever sold a business again, we'll be contacting him to list it."  
Philip & Belinda Turnbull
Sellers, Just Comfort Shoes

"Many thanks to Craig Campbell of Coastal Business Brokers for making it happen for us. After months of being unsuccessfully listed with one of the national franchised brokerages we still had no result. So, we made the move and listed our business with Craig. He gave us a realistic valuation on the business, told us what to expect, how to present the business and what the costs and timeframes would be. He delivered on all counts and the business sold within the timeframe and the sale price given to us initially. Craig helped us hold the whole deal together until settlement and we can now get on with what we want to do for the rest of our lives. I would highly recommend Craig's services and that of Coastal Business Brokers to anyone who wants to get results. We both feel confident in giving this referral, because Craig was straight with us and did what he said he would do, which is what was most important."
Luke and Romana McCall
Sellers, McCalls Bakery

On Mario Nucifora:

"Hi Mario.  Our business has sold - it has settled - and we have you to thank. We appreciate the effort and manner in which you operated to achieve the signed contract for the sale. And ... as always it is never a done deal at that stage, so we also would like to thank you for the continued work you did to get our contract unconditional and then proceed to be sold. Our life needed to take a new course and we are on that course now - thanks to you. Best Regards."
Barbara & Arthur Styles
Sellers, New Zealand Natural, Sunshine Plaza

"After listing and selling my business through Mario at Coastal Business Brokers, I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone wanting to sell their business.
I had tried selling my business before, privately and through various internet sites, however until Mario came along I had lost hope of ever selling it. Mario took the time to understand my business and what I was trying to achieve and how we could sell it.
Within 3 months we had a contract and the sale went through very smoothly. At all times I found Mario to be attentive, punctual and kept me informed of the progress of the sale, working closely with me, the buyer and the rental agent of the business.
I was very happy with the outcome and the way the whole sale was conducted on my behalf. I would recommend Mario to anyone who is thinking of selling their business. Regards"

Gavin Palmer
Seller, Bounce and Play/Café

"I met Mario along with several others from different Business Brokers. I am very much a first impression person and like to be able trust in people. Mario definitely from day one had all of the above along with a sense of humour and professional manner. Even after the sale his follow up service surprised me. If your business is one that you have put a lot of time and effort into and you want what it is worth, I can definitely recommend you give Mario a call."
John Forrest
Seller, Urban Flow

"We have found Mario to be more than helpful in dealing with the acquisition of our business. His professionalism was beyond reproach and he made things very easy for us when buying. We would not hesitate to use Mario for any future business dealings and would recommend his services to anyone looking for a professional Business Broker."
Tim and Tina Mauger
Buyers, New Zealand Natural Ice Cream

"To Mario,
I thank you enormously for your help during the purchase of my new business venture. Your effort was above what was required by a business broker. You showed me consideration and passion for a business that suited all my needs and qualifications. Without your consistent contact and direction I could have possibly missed out on this purchase. Your invaluable help was appreciated. Once again I thank you for your input to this purchase and I will be looking for your support if I sell or purchase another business. Regards."
Ray Elphick
Buyer, Clear Exit Lighting

"Recently, Mario Nucifora was instrumental in the successful sale of our business. Mario demonstrated professionalism in his co-ordination of information between the purchaser and us. The meetings were relaxed and casual allowing both parties time to discuss relevant issues. I would have no reservations in recommending Mario Nucifora as the facilitator for the sale of any business in the future.
Kind regards."
Archie Andrews
Seller, Clear Exit Lighting

"Dear Mario,
A quick letter to say thank you for your assistance in ensuring a smooth transaction with our recent business purchase.
My wife and I found Coastal Business Brokers to be very professional and willing to help with any queries put forward.
The whole process from meeting the vendor to completing the transaction went smoothly.
Now onto making the new business venture a success!
All the Best.
Kind regards"
Lawrence and Maria
Buyers, SIMI Superstim

"I would like to thank you once again for helping me sell my business. My business was listed with you for 10 months and in that time you introduced me to some people who were interested in my business. I know you tried hard to find a buyer with a vision on my kind of business which was hard because most people could not get their head around my kind of unconventional business. But with your determination and professional manner, you finally found the right people and I would like to thank you for your effort and friendly manner in doing so. Best regards."
Terry & Sooyan Reedman
Sellers, SIMI Superstim

"I had been looking for a business for a few months, and was amazed at the lack of follow up by most of the business brokers I contacted. I then contacted Mario, from Coastal Brokers and was immediately confident I had found "our" broker. He answered my queries promptly and took the time to ask questions of us, ascertaining exactly what we were looking for. He delivered exactly that - a great business which is very close to our hearts. Mario was always efficient, incredible with follow up and constantly fed us information which made buying our business very easy.
Thank you Mario - I would not hesitate to refer anyone to you, knowing you would take great care with them."
Terese Heydenrych
Buyer, Urban Ponds

"To all those looking to sell their business. Coastal Business Brokers with their highly skilled staff is our recommendation. After having our business listed with a number of other brokerages for many months and getting no results, we gave Coastal a go, and were very fortunate to get Mario Nucifora handling everything. With Mario we found we didn't just get a broker, but a very experienced former business owner, whose insight into to what sells a business was to us a breath of fresh air. Mario's knowledge and skills don't just stop at a man selling a business, he's a broker, solicitor and accountant all rolled into one, his communication skills and keeping us informed was just outstanding. Mario Nucifora and Coastal Business Brokers is our pick, and while our contract took forever, Mario got it over the line stress free, got top dollar in a slow market, thanks Mario."
B & A Cross
Sellers, Mr Whippy Sunshine Plaza

"It is with pleasure we would recommend Mario as your business broker. He took the time to understand the business which was for sale & the type of buyer best suited to it. He handled all the negotiations & as a result we achieved our asking price, went to contract & everything flowed from there. Thanks Mario, will see you & Coastal Brokers when we sell our other business.
Regards."

Thanks again."
