Advantages of Using a Business Broker

What Clients Say

You don't need to take our word for it, read what our clients have to say.

  • If you are looking to buy or sell a business, I cannot recommend Jeremy Sacker and Mike Rooney enough. In my nearly year-long search of looking for a business to purchase, I spoke to numerous brokers. It was not until speaking to Jeremy and Mike that anyone seemed seriously interested in my situation, or frankly, even trying to get a deal done for their client. Jeremy took the initiative to reach out to me multiple times to see how he could help me. He asked genuine questions specific to my life experience and future goals. I knew it was important to him to match something up that would work for me and my family. When something finally did come along that met such criteria, the circumstances dictated a very short timeframe to finalize the purchase. I honestly felt bad for putting him in such a difficult position. But he never approached it with anything less than complete excitement to help. He really worked non-stop on our deal for the next 2 weeks. I often wondered if he ever needed to sleep 🙂 His representation was top-notch. I often wondered how he was able to see every angle. His depth of knowledge was truly incredible. I have a legal and business background, and yet still felt like there were so many things that I had not even thought of that he was completely on top of. The purchase went smoothly, and the actual operations of the business (2 months in) have gone great. To the point that I would love to find another similar business; of course – with Jeremy's help. I could not even imagine attempting this without his expertise. Jeremy, this was such an important thing for our family and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

  • If we could rate higher than 5 stars we absolutely would. Mike was brought on by the previous owners of our store, and we can honestly say that without his help we would never have gotten through the process. Mike was extremely friendly, helpful, and patient with us when guiding us through the parts of the takeover we were unfamiliar with and was often more than willing to go the extra mile to ensure the transition went as smoothly as possible. Mike is a professional, knowledgeable broker that we would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone needing assistance buying or selling their business.

  • Mike was great. He brought in viable buyers with the interest and ability to complete the sale. He was very available and was a big help throughout the process. From my experience, I would highly recommend Mike if you are thinking of selling your business.
