As a residential broker myself, I was selective in my choice to hire Jim to sell my sports club. Jim fit the bill as he was patient, detailed and had a clear marketing approach.  It was a journey finding the right buyer, but that's what impressed me the most about choosing Jim.  He was never frustrated and consistently vetted leads and buyers and when the right one came along, he sealed the deal. Huge thanks on a tough sale!

There are very few people in the US that have the knowledge, skills, and experience to sell a tennis facility. There was one choice for me and that was Jim Bates of Sports Club Advisors. It was only through Jim's patience and perseverance that we got the club sold and I am forever grateful.

As a small business owner there’s no way I could have sold my business by myself. Jim took care of every detail which allowed me to focus on running the business. I never would have had the time or patience to deal with all the potential buyers. Plus, Jim got my full asking price allowing me to retire!

I just wanted to thank you again for your help. Even though you were advising and representing the sellers, you very helpful to us. We could never have gotten this deal across the goal line without you. I hope we have a chance to work together on another transaction again in the future.

I can’t imagine using anyone other than [Sports Club Advisors] to advise me. To have someone with 20 years of hands-on experience managing clubs expertly advising me and managing the sale process is invaluable. It gives you peace of mind that every move you are making is the right move.

Thank you for helping me sell my gymnastics center. Just wanted to let you know I feel like a new person!!! I feel 10 years younger!!! Thank you again for all your help. You were amazing. I’m SO happy I got your flyer back in August.

I can’t imagine a better steward of this process. Your guidance really made it easy. I look forward to celebrating in person!

Rich pulled this deal back from the dead many times. Thank you for all that you did. You generated a lot of interest in my company and helped me select the ideal buyer. You managed the process very well – I couldn’t have done it without you.

Sports Club Advisors was with me every step of the way. I would not have acquired the DeKalb Tennis Center management contract without them.

Working with Sports Club Advisors has been amazing. Rich and Jim understand the industry in a way that most M&A specialists don’t. They see both sides of the deal and their guidance on this project was invaluable.

Thank you tremendously for your assistance in selling our business. You were focused, diligent, and professional throughout. You did what you promised and helped us accomplish what we set out to do.

Thank you for everything you did for me. The joint venture you arranged and the advice you provided helped me transform my club and achieve my personal and professional goals.
