After the sale, Charlie Steinmetz shared, “I had been chatting with Jonny Mecham of Performance Brokerage Services and his dad, John Mecham, for a few years before we decided to sell our store. Markets like ours are unique, and having a resource so experienced in small towns made an enormous difference. Jonny talked us (often every day) all the way to the finish line, keeping us confident through the hurdles we encountered in the process. I would strongly recommend Jonny and Performance Brokerage Services!”
Over the last 5 years, Performance Brokerage Services has advised on the sale of nearly 400 dealerships, making it the highest volume dealership brokerage firm in North America. John Mecham, Senior Partner, and Jonny Mecham, Partner of the Rocky Mountain Office for Performance Brokerage Services were the exclusive sell-side advisors for this transaction.
Jonny Mecham commented, “It was truly a pleasure working with Charlie Steinmetz and his family over the last year. Finding the right buyer in a small community is key, and the Steinmetz family was committed to the process from the start. I believe that Aaron Jones and his family are the right people to carry on the Havre Ford name, and I look forward to seeing what they accomplish going forward. Thank you to the Steinmetz family for allowing us to represent you.”
