Mike Nova

When I reached out to Mike Nova about brokering the sale of my business, I didn’t know what to expect. In short order, you made me feel comfortable with the entire process. Your approach is to put your client’s needs and feelings first. I immediately felt like I had a partner in the sale that cared about the outcome as much as I did. At each step you rolled up your sleeves and dove into the details of selling my business. You even spent days converting my paper financial statements into Excel spreadsheets. I can’t thank you enough for all your hard work. It was nice knowing that you were just a phone call away!

"This was not a big ticket deal but you’d never know it the way took care of me. He was honest, resilient, dependable, approachable and highly skilled. I learned firsthand the best thing about Mike is that he cares more about the client than the commission. If you’re looking for a Business Broker, you simply need to give him call. I promise you’ll be glad you did."

"Dear Mike, I feel very lucky to have been able to connect with you during my search for an Broker who could handle the sale of Bolinas Bay Hardware & Mercantile. As I related to you before, the first person I interviewed suggested that we have an inventory sale and close the store. You were enthusiastic and confident that we could pass the store on to buyers who would appreciate Bolinas and the need for a hardware store. This gave me the hope and direction I needed to move forward. You competently guided me through the marketing process and collaborated on advertising, selling strategy and timelines. You were always available if I had questions and I really appreciate your efforts to check in almost every week, even during the quiet times. When we did find a buyer, you did an excellent job of informing him of procedures and paperwork he needed, plus helping him to understand the complicated finances of the business. He has told me on several occasions how happy he was with the process, our goodwill and the smooth negotiations. I credit you with much of that and think that you made the entire process so positive for everyone involved. Once we were in contract, the days seemed to fly by and the next thing I knew, the store changed hands. I always felt well represented by you and trusted your advice when it came to handling price negotiations and other contractual agreements. You were al so personable and supportive, particularly important to me during a difficult time with my husband’s health. Thank you for all your good work and making me feel as though I had a team behind me in the process of selling my business." I wish you well and hope that you continue to thrive in your real estate career.
