John and Janette Farewell

Superior Equipment Repair, Inc.

We had been thinking about selling our 30+ year established business for some time, but weren’t sure about how to go about it. We chose to have Centurion 7 list it for sale and oversee the marketing. We are very pleased with our decision – the business got a “full price” offer within the first month! Rhett handled the entire process, setting up meetings, negotiating the financing, and advising all the parties to the deal. We closed the sale and can honestly say we were satisfied with the professionalism and guidance of Rhett and his company.

Ken Rasmussen

Grover Beach Tool Rental

My wife and I recently purchased a business under the brokerage of Rhett Kniep with Centurion 7 Business Advisors. This was a difficult transaction as our purchase required us to perform a 401k Rollover for Business Startup (ROBS) transaction as well as gain additional funding from a lender. The first lender after several months would not agree to the transaction and declined our loan. Rhett was able to convince the small business owner to continue to work with us while we secured other funding. When near complete, environmental issues arose with the planned business purchase. Again, the owner could have pulled the deal as other cash offers were available but Rhett was able to convince the owner to stay in the deal. I would recommend Rhett for the purchase of or sale of a business in the future.

Sean Pourvakil

Integrated Design and Fabrication

Rhett and Centurion 7: thank you for all your professionalism and patience in getting our deal done. It has been a very good experience working with you and I’m sure we will be in contact for future investments.

Joel Tilford

Junk Patrol, LLC

I approached Rhett at Centurion about selling my business a couple years ago, and never went past that. I reached out to him again in August, and we had escrow closed by September 3oth. Awesome, professional experience. Would absolutely recommend and will use again for any future endeavors.

Michael Sheridan

SePac Energy Systems, Inc

Thank you to Centurion 7 for a masterful job in selling our business. We had multiple suitors, over a very long period and Rhett stuck with us through it all. He got us more than we were expecting and proved to be a very strong negotiator on our behalf. Will recommend Rhett and his company at any opportunity: Do yourself a favor and put your business in his hands. You won’t be disapppinted.

Tony Faryniarz

Nor Cal Roofing, Inc.

After contacting a couple other business brokers I decided Rhett and Centurion / was the right fit. He was very professional and extremely knowledgeable throughout the entire process. He told me that roofing companies usually/sell| fairly quickly and he was right. He valued my company and got the price that he promised me. It was no time before I had 2 interested Buyers and the company was sold as quickly as I could have expected. The entire process was straight forward and less work, on my end, than I had imagined. Thank you Rhett for everything. I will refer you to every friend/acquaintance I come across that is interested in selling their business

Frank Welch

IF Welch Enterprise

I’ve run a successful construction company for a couple decades. It was getting time to wind things down when Rhett convinced me I had a viable business to sell. I signed up with his company and in a few weeks there was a good offer and we opened escrow. There were some difficulties with the buyer at the outset, but Rhett made sure we did what was necessary to keep it legal and safe for all the parties involved. We were able to resolve the issues, successfully. He is professional and courteous and I would readily recommend his company to anyone interested in selling a business.
