Business, Commercial and Hotels Sales

"Buying or selling a business, with or without commercial real estate?" - Where do you start?...

Simple, contact Rodger!!

You will get

-  A straight and honest approach.

-  Total commitment to getting the desired result.

-  An experienced specialist business broker.

Originally from Gisborne Rodger spent most of his career in Auckland working in senior sales and marketing roles. In 1999 Rodger started a waste collection company in central Auckland. Over the next 16 years he grew the business into a multi-million dollar company with 22 trucks and 60 staff. In 2015 Rodger sold the company and moved his young family to Hawke’s Bay.

Starting a business from scratch, growing and finally selling it gave Rodger practical experience regarding the process, complexities and emotions involved in successfully exiting a business. Since joining Bayleys Hawke’s Bay in 2016, Rodger has helped many business owners achieve the same result.

As quoted by Denise and Rick who recently sold First Autoworks and RV in Napier; “From our first meeting with Rodger to discuss the sale of our business through to the due diligence period and sale; has been a trustworthy and nurturing experience. His communication, professionalism and high EQ gave us confidence the business would sell. His ability to navigate us through highs and lows from beginning to end gave us the result we had hoped for, retirement and handing the keys to new owners that will continue to take the business forward.”

Rodger has an easy-going style with solid business acumen. He was a board member of the New Zealand chapter of the global Entrepreneurs’ Organization for two years. Rodger was attracted by the strength and integrity of the Bayleys brand. “Bayleys is a marketing machine which provides my clients with a significant punch to their sales campaign.”

Selling businesses takes time but over the last 12 months Rodger has sold five businesses, one of which sold for well over $3m.

Tim and Rodger both provided an excellent service. They were professional and responsive, both going out of their way to meet with potential buyers and very helpful at moving things forward. They kept us up to date with progress and spent a lot of time on the sale. The support staff were also great at providing documentation in a timely manner and at short notice.

Selling your business is an incredibly important time in your life and something you probably won't do often, so it is not without its stresses! I certainly appreciated the advice, professionalism and calmness that Rodger displayed as he helped me navigate my way through the process. I thought it was going to be awful and it really wasn't. And, best of all, I achieved an excellent outcome very quickly. Thanks Bayleys.

Rodger was so easy to deal with! Very professional and totally understood what we needed and what was important to us. Would highly recommend, he made a stressful yet exciting process that much easier!

Tom and Anna Quinn – Purchasers of Salt Cafe

Rodger handled our purchase very professionally with good ethics and provided good knowledge of engagement with the vendor which made it a seamless process for all involved.

We recently used Rodger to buy a new business (Craftys Rods & Guns) and then sell our current business (Mint Restaurant). We found Rodger extremely good to work with. On the buying side he worked well with us and the seller to ensure we both got what we were looking for and communicated well with us through the whole process, making it a very smooth transition for everyone involved. Putting our Restaurant on the market was a big decision for us and Rodger understood and worked hard to keep us informed of what was happening with interested parties and enquiries. Eventually leading to the sale which was another smooth and well organised transition. We are very happy we choose to use Rodger and will definitely work with him again if we look at buying or selling.
