WHY CHOOSE EATZ & ASSOCIATES (PRAISE FROM OUR CLIENTS):
I recently worked with Tom and Tim. We had a few bumps in the road, but ultimately I was very happy with the sale of my business. Thanks guys.
– Taylor, Ritchie’s Smokin’ BBQ
Highly recommend! Very attentive service from Tom & Tim. They assisted us in a business sale, thoroughly kept us informed along the process, which at some point can be stressful but if you have the right team/professionals on your side it becomes much easier.
– Valeriu, Two Pints Lounge
Tim did an exceptional job on the sale of Brenda’s. He was very attentive and respectful. He made us feel like we were his only clients. Tim took our questions and concerns seriously and found a balance between our requests and the potential buyers. I don’t know that I will be looking to get back into the restaurant business, but if I did, I would call Tim to help me. I will be recommending him to anyone I hear trying to sell a restaurant. Thank you Tom & Tim for all the work you both put into the sale, it means the world to us.
