“We would like to take this opportunity to thank Andrew Holtgrewe for the superb handling of the listing, sale and closing of our business located in Southwest Virginia.
As a small business in a rather niche market we were most concerned as to the prospects of locating a skilled business broker that could handle our needs. Our accountant and other business executives in our area highly recommended your company that specializes in the sale and acquisition of companies that are under $2M in annual gross sales volumes.
To our amazement, the entire transaction from the initial sales listing agreement through the actual closing took just 64 days! Simply incredible!Within a few weeks of completing the construction of our retirement home in another state, I had been diagnosed with an incurable cancer. With Chemo and Radiation Therapy treatments it made it extremely difficult to virtually impossible to make trips regarding the numerous details involved in the sale of our business.
Andrew Holtgrewe dove right in from the very beginning in making a trip to our home located in a State different from your offices and in making many trips to the actual business site during both the due diligence and closing phases of the sale. Andrew stayed in constant contact with us both night and day and in many instances through Saturdays and Sundays to assist both the sellers and the Purchaser in obtaining any and all information that was pertinent to the sale. Andrew Holtgrewe is simply a true credit to both your company and entire industry.”

“When we started down the road of purchasing a business, we quickly found that we needed professional help to insure we didn't make costly mistakes. Through careful research, we found Andy Holtgrewe and contacted him to find out if he would be a good fit for us. After interviewing him, we knew he was the right person and we began working with him immediately. It was the best move we made during the entire process! Andy was great to work with. He's extremely honest and transparent, he has a strong background in buying and selling businesses (he's actually bought and sold his own businesses), and he is an extremely knowledgeable CPA. He developed a well-constructed Letter of Intent, handled negotiations, assisted with clarifying franchiser requirements, and helped us navigate, with great expertise, the lease on our building. We really can't express what a pleasure Andy has been to work with and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great broker.”

“I recently navigated my first business acquisition and Andy’s help and guidance were invaluable. We initially met in his capacity as a broker and I was impressed by his experience and perspective as a CPA, business owner and a broker. When I found a target business, I needed a trusted advisor on my side. Andy performed a thorough, independent business valuation and helped me to assess the risks and opportunities within. His low-key, non-nonsense approach worked really well for us throughout due diligence, particularly as he engaged my lender and raised everyone’s confidence in the deal. I would highly recommend Andy’s involvement on the buy or sell side of a business sale.”

“The thought of selling our business felt like wading into murky waters – we were apprehensive and quite frankly didn’t even know the right questions to ask. However, after meeting with Andy Holtgrewe, we were immediately put at ease.
He completed a thorough market evaluation of our business and walked us through it step-by-step. He answered all our questions in layman’s terms and gave us a clear assessment of the value of our business and what to expect every step of the way.
In short, we would highly recommend Andy to anyone considering the end game of selling their business. He was able to simplify an exceptionally complex environment and gave us the peace of mind to make some very big decisions based on a clear and complete picture.
Thanks again for your expertise and exceptional customer care!”

Your integrity, professionalism, attention to detail and follow-up “set the standard” for us for M & A brokers. I am disappointed that we did not find this particular business to be a match for our needs, but want you to know we will not hesitate to work with you in the future, and will gladly serve as a reference.”
