Testimonials

We chose Ish to broker the sale of our family business. He got us multiple interest and sold the company within the year! He was very helpful and great during the negotiations and after. We highly recommend him if you’re thinking of selling your company! We couldn’t have done it with out him.

We were looking for a trustworthy and professional agent to assist us with selling. Although we were a small operation, Kelly treated us with the utmost courtesy and respect and made the entire process very simple, and as well sourced the perfect buyer for us. We are very pleased with all aspects of our interactions with Sunbelt and would highly recommend his services.

Kelly Dennis is not only broker, but very well analyst of business. I used him more than once for a new business acquisition plus selling my business. He is a very helpful brilliant and knowledgeable person. I strongly recommend him. He even went extra beyond and above advising after business purchase too.

Our experience with Kelly was excellent. He answered all of our questions right away, was always available when we needed him and made our buying experience quite easy. I would definitely recommend him to anyone buying or selling business.

Kelly has lots of knowledge and was very helpful during my transaction.

Kelly took on the sale a small business in Saskatoon after my husband passed away unexpectedly. It is a smaller business than he normally would deal with, but he very kindly decided to assist our family. Kelly explained the process, answered questions, and responded promptly. The whole process took much longer than either of us expected and I was most grateful to have him working for me. I highly recommend his services.

We have nothing but amazing comments for Kevin & Ish! They handled the sale of our business with the utmost respect & professionalism! We had no idea what was involved in selling our business but both of these guys made it very smooth. At our first meeting they walked us through the process of all that was involved in selling & they were at our side from start to finish. Both were available at any time for questions or concerns. if we could give them 10 stars we would. They are not only very good at what they do, they are very caring when it comes to their clients.

I can't say enough about Ish and his team. His experience and knowledge made the process of selling our business seamless and easy. He brought many qualified buyers and helped us sell our business for a fair price. Thanks so much for all the help, Ish!

Kelly Dennis, owner of Sunbelt Brokers in Regina was instrumental in the successful sale of our family business. Kelly and his predecessor, Barry Johnson, provided excellent consultation to us as we navigated this very difficult process. They were respectful of our family and our father and used their excellent interpersonal skills, extensive knowledge, professionalism and business acumen to encourage and advise us. They took time to understand our father's concerns and wishes and found the best buyer to continue the legacy he built over 48 years in business. The support they provided before, during and after the sales process was excellent and we couldn't be happier. We highly recommend the services of Sunbelt Business Brokers in Regina

" CHANDER is an experience business broker who works hard to create a win/win for buyers and sellers,"

I sold my business to my top employee about 15 months ago and wish I knew about Jim's services at that time. There is a lot more to selling a business than most people think. I highly recommend allowing Jim to walk you through the process. It would have saved us a lot of time and money in the long run.

If you are looking to buy or sell a business call Jim. He is a man of integrity and will ensure that you get the best deal.

Jim and his staff are always available to chat and have good knowledge of the local businesses and business trends. If you are selling your business it is worth calling Jim.

Former Trytel Internet Inc. company owner Jeff Hurrie knew how to build a business but he didn’t know how to sell one. “Sunbelt was critical in helping us put our best foot forward,” says Jeff. “They were amazing They were there above and beyond the call of duty. Another thing I liked about working with Sunbelt is that, in addition to their professionalism and expertise they are motivated because they don’t get paid unless they make the sale.”

Although Krista Thompson and Genevieve Bonin held executive positions, buying a business was a totally new experience. “We came in to Sunbelt all wide eyes and quaking knees but Greg was great,” says Krista. “He helped us jump through the hoops and made referrals for us to his network of business advisors. The whole deal went smoothly.”

Dwight Campbell was ready to branch out on his own, but before acquiring a business, he did his homework. After reading a book that strongly recommended going through a business broker, he started contacting brokers. Sunbelt impressed him the most and when they introduced him to Matco’s automotive industry tool distribution franchise, he liked what he saw. “Sunbelt has a really good selection of companies,” says Dwight. “They’re definitely in the know as to who is buying or selling companies. Their strategy is good. They inform the buyer of the company’s previous history and introduce buyer to seller. “I absolutely would recommend Sunbelt to anyone looking to buy a business.”

After 30 years in key engineering and executive management positions with leading international companies, Doug Overbury wanted his own business. He also wanted to get out of Toronto and back to eastern Ontario. What he needed to find was the right business in the right location. Happily, his search led him to Sunbelt Business Brokers and Auto Electric. “Sunbelt’s Ottawa team helped me put together the cash flows and projections, pulled together the numbers I needed and structured a deal that would work for me,” says Doug “You know, if you go looking for a business on your own and start dealing with an owner who is thinking of retiring, often the likelihood is that the seller changes his mind about selling. But when a seller has signed up with Sunbelt and gone through the detailed analysis and business documentation they do, and a willing buyer is found, the seller sells. “Without Sunbelt my purchase wouldn’t have happened at all.”

When their spouses (Marie McInnes and Luc Tremblay) started looking for new careers, long-time friends Shane McInnes and Natasha Hall-Tremblay started looking on the Internet. There they found Sunbelt Business Brokers. “We quickly realized that Sunbelt has the listings,” says Shane. And so started the events that saw Chapel Hill Pet Studio passed from one enthusiastic family-based business team to another. “Buying a business can be very stressful and the broker was extremely patient throughout the whole process. He kept a level head and whenever we needed to see him, he made arrangements for us to do so.”

Brian Beauchamp had been looking to buy a business for 12 years. “You name it, I looked into it,” says the former federal government lawyer. “But only when I found Sunbelt business brokers did I find the right business for me. And quickly…” I like the way Sunbelt works, they screen out applicants, honour confidentiality and you always feel they’re representing both sides fairly.”

It has been 7 months since my purchase of a building and business through Sunbelt Canada. it is my 5th business I can say without a doubt that this was the most professional, organized, diplomatic transactions I have encountered. There was some obstacles but nothing even worth talking about. I am extremely satisfied with the transaction and thank Andrew for his participation. Excellent service and I would recommend and reuse their services at any given time. Proud owner of Naples pizza

Sam (Ahmed) Rabaa and his wife Maha were thrilled at the opportunity to move to California. But they faced one major hurdle: before they could leave Ottawa, Sam had to sell Studio Elegante, his successful hairdressing salon. Sam had tried to sell it privately but, at the 11th hour, the deal fell through. Then Maha went on line and found Sunbelt Business Brokers, says Sam. “We called, reached agent Mark Cullen, met with him, and listed the business.” “Andrew was impressed with Sunbelt,” says Nathalie. “He used to be a banker so he knew what to look for. He researched several of the businesses that were listed with Sunbelt and the information was good.” The Bunsicks contacted Sunbelt and sat down with agent Mark Cullen. The rest, as they say, is history. Would they recommend Sunbelt to others? Absolutely!

Taplen Construction was Henry Armstrong’s baby. But after four and a half decades of hands-on devotion to business, Henry was ready to retire. Like all caring parents, he wanted the best for his baby so he turned to the best- Sunbelt Business Brokers—to locate a suitable buyer. “I definitely didn’t want to close down the operation,” he says. “I have a lot of good people working for me and I wanted to make sure the company carried on.” Impressed with Sunbelt’s client roster and philosophy, he listed Taplen Construction for sale with Sunbelt. He is delighted with the results. “Sunbelt’s staff is excellent,” he says. “They really kept things moving and got the sale done.” After due consideration of two potential buyers, Henry opted to sell the business to Michael Assal, who moved his family back to Ottawa from Washington, D.C., where they were living when the opportunity surfaced. “The transaction required me to spend a lot of time negotiating with Mr. Armstrong,” says Michael. “Sunbelt was very professional and often stepped in to facilitate when possible areas of conflict surfaced. “Things well went from the first week I took ownership.”

Sunbelt business brokers are very professional. We buy our business from them. Greg Kells was very helpful and understanding of our needs and he help us in every step to own the business.
