We didn't really have any expectations when we ended up listing on Acquire. It was a really easy process from start to finish. Acquire just made the whole listing process really easy. And then transitioning to that next phase where you start meeting with buyers, it wasn't more than 24 hours after I listed on Acquire that I got probably five to 10 inquiries and received two unsolicited LOIs for at or above asking price in all cash. Literally it worked like magic.

Thank you for providing the service that you do… I think this is what's needed from entrepreneurship because we didn't have to get a broker, we didn't have to pay 15% of the sale price. We really utilized your services I think exactly as they're supposed to be, to match buyers and sellers, and it was a perfect candidate.
