Urgent and Professional Handling of Every Detail

I am late in posting this review for Phil. Phil was referred to me by a friend’s friend. Once I contacted Phil, he was on the job. We met at my location and he gave me full details of the process.

I have since referred him to others needing to sell their business and I would use him again without hesitation. Thank you, Phil.

Tireless Dedication to Retirement Sales

We had owned our business for over 30 years and it was time to sell our business and retire. We were entrusting our life’s work to someone we didn’t know and we were very nervous, therefore, we did a lot of research on brokers as it was imperative that this person be experienced, knowledgeable and reliable. It was a complicated process but Phil was determined to get us the best deal possible, regardless of how much time and work was involved. He worked tirelessly day and night to get it done, and done right; he definitely earned his commission. We are grateful to Phil for everything he did for us and strongly recommend him to sell your business.

Excellent Experience Selling Company and Property

I don’t usually don’t do reviews, but this was an excellent experience.

What a great choice. We feel grateful he even took our deal. Could not be happier.
Thank you Phil

Refreshing Optimism and Determination in Complex Deals

Phil was our broker for quite a while, his optimism and determination was refreshing in a complex, lawyer infested deal. He was never discouraged by setbacks and was dogged in his determination to complete the job.

Five Offers in Two Weeks – Incredible Results

We feel so lucky that we were able to find Phil. We hired him as our broker to sell our business and the entire process was handled with extreme professionalism and great communications between everyone involved.
Phil is very easy to talk to, listens well and has the patience of a Saint. He spent much time and attention to details learning all aspects of our business and his financial sophistication is top notch.
In the first two weeks of our broker/client contract, Phil brought us five signed “letters of intent” for our business. He put a sale together that was very pleasing to us and we couldn’t be any happier with the end results.
During the due diligence process and beyond, Phil was very easy to approach by answering his phone and replying to an email. It was very seldom that my call would go into voice mail but if it did he would text me right away a let me know he will get back to me real soon, and he did. Emails were answered almost immediately for most of the time.
If we had to do it again, the only thing we would do differently is that we would hire Phil sooner. If anyone reading this review is thinking about hiring Phil to sell their business, please don’t hesitate. If your business is sellable, he will do a great job for you and he will get the job done. We can promise that based on our experience.

Professional Walkthrough of the SBA Maze

We had an excellent experience working with Phil Reese. We began with a comprehensive evaluation of the business. He set up 2 qualified interviews in the 2nd week and the business was sold for full price to the 1st interview. He walked the buyer thru the SBA maze and helped the buyer get a loan. My business closed this week and without a hitch. I would recommend Phil for his professionalism, expertise and follow through.
