To whom it may concern;
My name is Scott Weiss and I am the owner of a public accounting firm in the Los Angeles area. I have been a CPA for over 40 years and represent a wide range of clients. Many years ago I purchased a golf car dealership, in which I was an absentee owner. When it came time to sell the business, I reached out to Matt Coletta who I knew previously. After some discussions, I hired Matt to represent me in the sale of the business. Matt went to work to really get to know this business and how it operated. I jokingly said that he knew more about the business than I did. Matt worked with my team at the business to put together an impressive package. We met with several buyers over several months and finally moved forward with a young couple who ultimately purchased the business.
Matt managed the entire process from assisting the buyer and myself with due diligence, preparing all the necessary documents, working with my attorney as well as the landlord to create an acceptable assignment of lease. Matt also assisted the buyer with obtaining the necessary approvals with the dealership transfer. There were a lot of moving parts and Matt managed them all to make sure the transaction was always moving forward. I somewhat underestimated everything that was involved in selling this business and I am thankful that I had Matt involved to make sure everything was handled correctly so I could focus on my accounting firm, as well as my other business interests.
I would definitely recommend Matt Coletta to anyone who is looking to sell or purchase a business. He is a true professional!
