Testimonials

I heartily recommend Rex and his team at Coast Business Brokerage. We listed our business in early 2020 — just before COVID-19 brought everything to a standstill. In spite of the challenges COVID created, Coast found several qualified buyers and presented a full-price offer in half the expected time frame and we closed escrow with cash in the bank before the end of the year. Rex guided us through the complex process without any hiccups or surprises and I'm delighted to report that the new owners are settling in nicely and having a great year.

Working with Rex was a positive and fluid process. He was informed about every aspect of the sales process, and managed to absorb all the headaches and details that would’ve sucked my time or ruined my attitude. He maintains a consistent and professional approach and is resilient when it comes to getting the job done. I would be happy to work with Rex again and can confidently recommend him to my friends.

I commend Sylvia Reyes on her amazing job of acquiring business funding for my business, after 6 months of rejections. A month after Sylvia took on this project I have the needed funding. Sylvia is not only professional, but tenacious. She did not give up, and worked diligently with me during the entire process. I highly recommend her!

After owning the Hindquarter Bar & Grille for more than 25 years, we listed our business with Rex Walters of Coast Business Brokerage. The time had come to let go and we wanted someone who would understand our desire to pass on the venerable landmark to passionate yet qualified buyers. As with most business transactions, the process hit a few glitches, but Rex and his team (Ken and Sylvia) guided us and the buyers through the maize of everything from lenders to the ABC. They were always accessible and professional in keeping us informed, answering our questions and addressing our concerns promptly and truthfully. Their “Aloha spirit” proved to be a true asset, especially when the going bogged down or was a bit rocky
