Identifying excellence in a professional business brokerage firm shouldn’t be difficult. Take, for example, the following criteria:
* Proven track record of successful business closings
* High closing ratios
* Ready access to buyers and sellers, both nationwide and internationally
* Systems and processes to match buyers and sellers
* Highly experienced and credentialed business brokers
* Unsurpassed standards of business ethic
* Membership in all significant industry associations, group listing services, multiple listing services and brokerage networks
Founded in 1994 by Roger J. Murphy, Murphy Business & Financial Corporation meets these criteria. As a result, the firm has become one of the largest and most successful business brokerage firms in North America, with offices conveniently located throughout the United States and Canada.
Members of the Murphy team have been carefully recruited and selected for their high level of achievement as former CEOs, CFOs, CPAs, business owners and senior level executives in a wide range of industries and professions. But their accomplishments don’t stop with their prior experience. Our business brokers receive intensive training, ongoing support and many have subsequently received the highest awards, credentials and designations in our industry.
We invite you to learn more about Murphy’s approach to the business brokerage profession. We hope to demonstrate how we provide both clients and professional partners with the highest standards of professional service and unmatched performance in the sales of privately held businesses, mergers, machinery and equipment sales, sales and re-sales of franchise businesses, commercial real estate transactions, business valuations, acquisitions and business consulting.
People Are Talking
"We want to commend you for your excellent service to us during the process of purchasing the business last January. From a buyer’s point of view, we could not have asked for anything more. The entire process – initial contact, due diligence, closing and post purchase follow up – was handled professionally and personably. We soon learned that we could trust you and the information you provided to us; and very importantly, that we could count on you to do what you said you’d do. Your guidance was a major reason that we had the confidence to take the plunge and make the offer".

"We would like to express our appreciation for the professional and diligent manner in which Murphy Business handled the sale of our business. You were always positive and upbeat and followed through and did what you said that you would do. Your were prompt to our meetings and more importantly were a facilitator in our discussions with potential buyers. You had a good balance in knowing when to interject and when to allow the principals to establish a rapport. After we entered into negotiations with a buyer, we were impressed with your efforts to keep moving the whole process forward in a timely manner in order to expedite the sale. If we ever have another business to sell, we would want you to be our broker".

“Our situation was a tough one, but their perseverance and attentiveness helped us achieve the sale successfully.”

“You not only did everything you said you would do in handling the sale of our business, you exceeded my expectations. In less than a month you brought us three legitimate buyers. I would recommend your services to anyone contemplating the sale of their business. In fact, I have recently recommended your services to two of my friends.”

“I wanted to take a few moments to express my appreciation for all you did to make my dream of owning a business become a reality. As you know, I had been looking for a business for three years and had limited success finding anything to fit my guidelines. During that time span, I had solicited the help of several brokers throughout the Tampa Bay area, but had no luck. Within a matter of days after contacting you for help, you found the perfect business, executed a purchase agreement, and the offer was accepted 4 hours after I signed the documents. Because of the complexity of the purchase, I know you put forth great effort and overcame several obstacles to make the deal go through.”
