When the opportunity to acquire Campus Ford came up, having Weldon Mann and Jimmy Robinson at Performance Brokerage Services in our corner made all the difference. Their knowledge of the market and the way they guided us through the process gave us real confidence every step of the way. Waynesboro is right in our backyard, and adding Ford to our lineup alongside our Chevrolet, GMC, Kia, and Mitsubishi stores in Staunton is a natural next step for our family. We're grateful to Weldon and Jimmy for their professionalism and expertise, and we're excited to welcome the Campus Ford team into the Charlie Obaugh family.

We are very pleased with the successful purchase of Carlock Toyota of Columbus (formerly Carver Toyota). A big thank you to Jimmy Robinson and Weldon Mann from Performance Brokerage Services for their professionalism and steady guidance throughout the process. They made the transaction smooth, transparent and efficient. We appreciate their support and look forward to many more buy-sells together in the future.

Working with Weldon Mann of Performance Brokerage Services on the acquisition of Dick Smith Hyundai in Greenville, South Carolina, was a very positive experience. Weldon is a clear communicator with deep industry knowledge and was a true professional throughout the process. He facilitated a smooth and efficient transaction, and both parties moved forward with confidence. We appreciated his guidance and look forward to working with him again on future acquisitions.

When we decided it was time to sell, we wanted the process handled the right way — our confidentiality protected, our employees taken care of, and a buyer who'd honor what we built. That's exactly what we got. Every step, from the first conversation through closing, was handled professionally and moved at a pace that gave us confidence. Handing the keys to Holler Auto Group, we felt fully supported the whole way through.

I want to thank George Chaconas for his help and professionalism in looking at several opportunities. His deeply rooted connections ultimately helped us land on Venice Nissan as the right strategic fit for our expanding footprint. His extensive industry experience, coupled with his long-standing relationship with Greenway Automotive Group, are what enabled us to navigate a complex deal through to a successful conclusion. I look forward to working with George again in the near future and would highly recommend Performance Brokerage Services to anyone considering buying or selling an automotive dealership.

We are very excited about acquiring our first marine dealership in Florida with the help of the team at Performance Brokerage Services. They were very helpful in guiding us through the buy-sell process and it was a pleasure to work with them again.

George Chaconas of Performance Brokerage Services was referred to us by a large auto dealer after we could not come to terms on a deal. We then realized we needed an experienced and professional automobile broker like George Chaconas to exclusively represent us in what has been a lifetime of ownership. We sent an email to his corporate office, he responded immediately, and visited us within a couple of days. He suggested a deal team of an automotive buy-sell attorney, CPA and a real estate appraiser, etc. to represent us. Since our OEM, Volvo, was aware of our imminent retirement, there were several very interested buyers introduced to us along with George’s proprietary database of qualified buyers. This allowed us to maximize the sale price by having multiple buyers interested in acquiring our two Volvo stores at the same time with surety of closing. We are very happy and appreciative of George’s professionalism, constant contact, support, industry knowledge and expertise. If you are considering retiring like us with no succession plan, now is the perfect time to reach out to George!
George facilitated our transaction seamlessly, from understanding the key issues to bringing us the right buyer. We appreciate the responsiveness of George and Courtney all the way to closing.

Having known George Chaconas over many years, it was a pleasure to finally work with him to acquire my first franchise dealership in St. Pete, Florida, Crown Mitsubishi, with his help, industry expertise, and professionalism. I look forward to working with him and his team, including Courtney Bernhard, in the years to come. I would highly recommend George and Courtney and the entire PBS team if you’re looking to buy or sell a franchised automotive dealership!

“We had been thinking of selling like most dealers over the last few years if the number was right. More important was finding the right partner to continue our legacy and allow us to stay on to transition our family business of 50 years. We had been approached to sell by several large Florida and out of state auto dealership groups and public companies. However, George brought us exactly what we had asked from him and what we were looking for in a buyer. George’s industry expertise and experience allowed us to quickly negotiate a deal just before Christmas and then the pandemic hit. George kept me focused on continuing to operate our business while he kept our deal from falling apart. I am incredibly happy and extremely satisfied with George’s expertise, honesty, and transparency. If you are considering selling your family dealership, I would sincerely recommend George Chaconas and Performance Brokerage Services.”
Over the last several years, I have acquired two dealerships with the help of George Chaconas and Performance Brokerage Services. I felt George would be the best advisor to exclusively represent me in the sale of Mobile Chevrolet. George is a very experienced deal maker and was extremely professional, hardworking, honest and transparent throughout the entire sales process and I look forward to working with George again. I would highly recommend George if you are considering selling or buying a car store!
When others couldn't Matt Wilkins and his team were able to get the deal done for my family and I. He identified not only the highest price but also the right buyer for our team. He is a pleasure to work with and we are grateful for him and his team. Thanks again for helping us through this process.
