MAXIMIZE YOUR VALUE
The sale of your business is the last opportunity for the assets to generate income for you. We maximize the value by creating a competitive environment among multiple buyers:
- It ensures that you receive fair market value for your assets and your life’s work.
- A sense of urgency and fear of loss are introduced, which expedite the process.
- Buyer’s contemplation is validated knowing that other buyers are looking.
- It ensures timely performance, fair negotiations and prevents the buyer from re-trading the deal.

FEATURED TESTIMONIALS
“A lot of events in the previous couple of years led us to Jesse, and we are grateful God put that path in place for us. We couldn’t imagine going through this extensive and emotional process without him to help. Jesse and his team place value on finding the right buyer because they truly understand what it means to part with a business that your family built. Not only did he help walk us through the process, but he eased fears, gave advice, and stayed involved to help with anything he could the entire way. We highly recommend him and his team. Their experience was invaluable.”

“Jesse Stopnitzky and Performance Brokerage assisted us with the sale of our 75-year-old family business. Jesse did not just become a business partner, but he took this to heart and worked diligently to vet out potential suiters and find a company that most closely met our criteria. Jesse genuinely showed complete respect, determination, and care throughout the entire process. In working with Jesse, it quickly became apparent that not only were we partnering with a genuine person, but a company that shares many of the same values and ethics that we do. If you want more than just a broker, but someone who is a true partner, then you have found just that in Jesse and Performance Brokerage. We highly recommend them both.”

“When I decided to sell and retire, it created a big dilemma for me. Who do I sell to? Who would be a good match for my dealership, my employees, and my customers? How do I contact them? And if I sell, I want the new owners to take care of my customers and employees the way I do. Jesse Stopnitzky at Performance Brokerage Services was an excellent choice. He was instrumental in getting my dealership aligned with the best match for my employees and my customers. His guidance through the entire process shows his strength and longevity in helping owners make the right choice in selling their dealerships. If you are considering selling a dealership, I recommend him very highly.”

“After interviewing a few brokers, based on our discussions and our concerns, we really felt there was only one choice for us. That choice was Jesse Stopnitzky and Performance Brokerage Services, who have sold over 700 dealerships across the country and are also family-owned. It was refreshing to find a broker that really listened and understood our concerns and what we were trying to accomplish. Jesse was very helpful in designing a plan that fit all of our needs for our family, employees and community. Jesse truly demonstrated honesty and integrity throughout every step of the process and hit all the marks in matching us with the right buyer. He helped make our transition as seamless as possible. I highly recommend Jesse Stopnitzky and his family at Performance Brokerage Services to anyone considering selling their dealership.”
Dave Haylett
“When I first made the call to Jesse Stopnitzky and Performance Brokerage Services, I was unsure of the process. As I began to see Jesse operate and experienced his quality of service, I became much more relaxed, which I appreciated so much. I had no idea the problems that would crop up, and Jesse did all he could do to help resolve them. I could not have done this by myself. His service was excellent and he was invaluable to me. If you are considering selling a dealership, I highly recommend the team at Performance Brokerage Services.”
Ronnie Hoelzer
“Jesse Stopnitzky and his team have been an absolute pleasure to work with. We had a lot of questions, uncertainty, anxiety, and stress, all of which Jesse helped us work through and helped us keep our sanity. Selling a 42-year-old family business is a tough decision, which Performance Brokerage understands. They explained the process and worked with us through every step. Had it not been for the professionalism, empathy, knowledge and experience of Jesse and his team, we would have never been successful in selling the business. They worked hard to understand our business history and what we wanted in a buyer, then found the perfect fit for us.”
Terry Sinkler
“Finding Jesse Stopnitzky and Performance Brokerage Service was the key to selling my dealership. Jesse was vested in a positive outcome from the start and never took his eye off the ball! His expertise brought me a deal within weeks and closed 90 days later. The time he took to get to know my family and me was an added bonus. Jesse’s integrity, perseverance and sense of humor sets him aside from the rest. I highly recommend Jesse and the Performance team to anyone considering selling or buying.”
