Lesley Sells Her Restaurant

With the skilled work regional provisional visa offering many migrants a route to obtain an extended visa and permanent residency, the increase in business selling has grown tenfold.

Food and hospitality businesses have been by far the most popular, with an established foundation and ease of operation they are walking out the door.

Owning the business for 14 years, Lesley decided it was time to part ways with her fast-food restaurant and move into retirement

Lesley’s main drawcard for working with Bonza Business and Franchise Sales was having someone else manage the sales process, the access to a professional copywriter to design an attractive advertising campaign and having a dedicated broker working to get the best price for her business. She liked that fact that she didn’t have to deal with the daydreamers of the world, as it was the broker’s job to first qualify the interested buyers, find out how serious they are, discuss if they have the required funds, whether they have any experience, their intentions, and most importantly make sure a confidentiality agreement was signed before any information was provided.

Prescience is key. Lesley’s was in no rush to sell and was happy to wait out for the right buyer. 56 enquiries later, Lesley’s buyer came walking through the door. Looking to take advantage of the current provisional visa offering, Swapnill had found himself the perfect business.

Bonza was there to help Lesley and Swapnill negotiate a great deal and get the sale to contract. After a short due diligence period, Swapnill was able to step in and take the reins and Lesley was able to transition into retirement.
