SELL OR BUY A BUSINESS

Over the last couple of years, I’d been thinking about retiring and getting out of my business. I had asked my accountant about a valuation, but they didn’t offer that service, and I couldn’t find anyone locally who did. When I saw an ad from Transitions Business Brokers about business valuations, I decided to reach out.

The process wasn’t difficult. Vincent clearly outlined what he needed, and I was able to securely upload my documents through a shared link, which I appreciated. He was thorough, understanding, and answered my questions along the way.

What I was really looking for was a realistic sale price, and the valuation gave me that. It came in very close to what I expected, which gave me confidence to move forward with listing the business.

If someone is looking for a valuation, I’d recommend Transitions.

We felt ready to move on from our business, but wanted its legacy to live on. From the start, Vincent understood that goal. He’s listened, he’s been patient, and he’s been eager to help us succeed in the selling process. We feel very lucky to be working with him.

Something we’re especially grateful for is that he gets how important it is to find the right people to take over. When we turned down offers from buyers who didn’t feel like a good fit, we never felt pressured to accept anything that didn’t sit right with us.

As we continue to look for the right buyer, we would absolutely recommend Transitions to anyone looking to sell. We feel heard, understood, and uplifted. Vincent has been thorough in helping us prepare and a joy to work with at every step.

I found Vincent to be a very transparent, honest individual. He was always forthright with absolutely everything from start to finish. He explained things well, went into detail when necessary, and I had a great interaction with him.

He was definitely very thorough and methodical. When you’re doing a business deal, issues are going to come up—and Vincent was a calming influence. He made sure the transaction was always moving forward, and any issues that came up were looked after as soon as possible. He was a great liaison between the seller and me, and we worked well together.

Even after the deal was done, he stayed in touch and offered help as we got going with the business. He always puts his best foot forward. He’s always welcome here, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for the sale or purchase of a business.

I decided to sell the business because my wife and I wanted more time together—and we sell a lot of big gear that was getting too heavy to lift and deliver. Selling a business isn’t like selling a house. It’s a different ballgame, and I wanted someone who understood how to do it right.

What stood out to me most was Vincent’s perseverance and attention to detail. He kept everything on track and made sure I was prepared for every buyer meeting—right down to what to say and how to say it.

Vincent was always positive, easy to work with, and we figured things out together. When the right offer came along, he helped me see it was time to move forward. I walked away with a satisfying deal.

I learned a lot through the process, and I was glad to have Vincent in my corner. I’d definitely recommend Transitions.
