What Our Clients Say

“You not only did everything you said you would do in handling the sale of our business, you exceeded my expectations. In less than a month you brought us three legitimate buyers. I would recommend your services to anyone contemplating the sale of their business. In fact, I have recently recommended your services to two of my friends.”
Mark BeasleyFormer Owner
It has been my pleasure to work with and know Rod. We have worked together on several very challenging real estate projects. His character, diligence, and professionalism have always been of the highest order. These projects were quite complex and involved multiple parties. I have consistently been highly impressed with Rod's persistence and willingness to work incredibly hard to work toward goals and desired end results. He also is a pleasure to work with and gets along well with all whom he knows and comes in contact with.
Arthur F. (Skip) OppenheimerCEO, Oppenheimer Companies
Rod is very astute at what he does and very professional in manner. I have been involved with Rod in several real estate and business sales. He has signed people to leases on property that I own, been a listing and selling agent for me on property that I have sold, and helped with planning on property we have purchased. In all aspects he has shown strong knowledge, determination, and professionalism for the task at hand. Rod has a very high work ethic. He is also very personable and gets along well with those he works with. He is definitely someone I would recommend for real estate and business related projects.
R.Bruce MurdochFormer Owner - Plantation Place Assisted Living
From our first meeting, Rod at Murphy Business, communicated very openly and honestly regarding the process of selling our business, patiently explaining all the details. He informed us of the tools he would use to sell our business, and bring us a buyer. He was very available, and kept us up to date on all activities during the process. He looked out for our interests every step of the way. While selling a business can be intimidating and overwhelming, Rod's guidance, utmost professionalism, and efficiency put us at ease. While never making unrealistic promises, he made it happen! Thank you Rod!

I have a lot of confidence in Sheila’s abilities. She understands the owner’s side of the business and represents him well. She also helps the buyer get financing…Sheila exceeded my expectations. We received 30 very qualified responses and that surprised me in a good way! Sheila knows what she is doing, how to do it and follows up on everything. We were successful in finding the type of buyer I wanted and concluded the sale. The buyer was financially qualified and had the right business experience and the right personality to fit into the current structure of my business.
Richard OgleFormer Owner, Office Environment Company
We could have never done this on our own... Sheila represents everything you could want in someone you are doing business with.
Jim & Donna BledsoeFormer Owners, Jim's Heating & Cooling Company
It is our immense pleasure to recommend David Choate and Murphy Business for any business owners looking to buy or sell a business. David came up with a deal that was good for us and made the buyer happy as well. Throughout the process, he managed to navigate any issues solving them quickly and effectively. We found David to be a highly attentive agent. David was honest about expectations, selling point and what to expect. We are pleased to recommend David Choate to anyone looking to buy or sell a business. He is hands down the best in the business in our opinion and we have suggested him to other business owners around the valley.
Mellissa Wallace & Daniel JordanFormer Owners, Relic Pizza
We loved Murphy Business! They were so professional and accessible every step of the way. Selling a business can be very stressful, however, Murphy Business walked us thru each and every day with integrity, knowledge and sound advice. It took 9 months to sell our 39-year-old business for cash! We are grateful every day for the superior job Murphy Business did in completing this very difficult task! We recommend them to anyone who is looking to sell their business and wants to do it right!
