We have now sold our Motel, so you may now remove our listing from the web site.
We sold to a couple who found our listing on Bizoptions, another successful Bizoptions listing.

"We sold our Bakery through BizOptions! Ed Whiting from BizOptions asked us if we would provide a testimonial and we were very happy to do so. We would recommend to anyone looking at selling their business to create a listing on BizOptions as they are well known in NZ and internationally, easily findable online, you can be creative with your listing and it is cheap to list. One thing we found very useful was the ability to login and see how many visitors had been to your listing and where they came from at any time. Our business sold privately to a family originally from Germany and Russia and without BizOptions they wouldn’t have found us and we certainly wouldn't have found them. Well done to BizOptions.

Nothing further to add as the site did a great job of promoting my business for all the time i had it listed. It is an excellent site for anyone looking to get the most exposure possible from a locally hosted website! Full marks to the Aorata team and i would'nt hesitate using them again for selling or buying a business! Norman Donald mreinz Central Fish Ltd Matamata, New Zealand

We are writing to you because we have just sold our property in Otorohanga through your web site.
During the time that the property was advertised on your web site we had a great number of hits, of those that contacted us we had enquiries from various countries in Europe particularly Great Britain, several from Canada, the USA, and Australia. We also had a number of enquiries from people based on South Island and North Island all of whom visited the property. We did sell the property to a New Zealander who actually lived quite close to our property!
We consider that the cost of listing on your web site provides excellent value for money and the fact that this lasts for as long as it takes to sell is exceptional. We found that people that were serious in purchasing a business made contact and clearly were in the market for such a property and business. Our property was a bed and breakfast and boarding kennels and cattery. We would have no hesitation in recommending your web site to others who are selling businesses in New Zealand.
Many thanks for your help

Many thanks for your help, guidance and Marketing of my Business and the successfull sale through AORATA 1st Class Service and your Guide Book helps avoid all the traps, sifting of enquiries great help.
If you are selling/or thinking of selling your Business why use a Real Estate Agent they only do what you can do, so why pay them! Use Aorata as your Marketing tool couple wtih a few newspaper adds as a cross reference, thats all you need.
Have a good 2/3 page Brochure done with lots of photos to send out.
You will get lots of enquires! but with the guidance of Aorata's format sheet you will soon learn to sift out the genuine enquiries from the "tyre kickers". The two main points to check early.
1. You need a "residencey Visa" to Buy a Business in N.Z for Overseas enquires they are not easy or quick to obtain.
2. Check potential buyers have capital/equity. Banks don't lend money on dreams. Good luck!

We sold our Business (alfresco Café) on the Aorata Web Site. We had numerous
calls regarding the business and we are pleased with the sale. The Aorata
web site gives one the opportunity to see how many people have looked at the
business and where they are from. I would heppily recommend someone to list
their business for sale on this web site. I know of at least two other
people who have sold through Aorata and they are happy with the product as
well. Brian Coddington Outside The Square Kapiti Coast, New Zealand

Aorata is a great tool for listing a business like ours, we have a small Motel with a short lease left to run.
We had a great response with enquiries Nationwide as well as from all around the globe. We expected it might take a year to sell but sold to buyers in the UK within 6 months although they were among our first enquirers. We listed for a short time with an agent but only attracted a couple of local enquiries so it really pays to open up to a broader market. I was referred to this site by another local Motelier and have had no hesitation in referring other Moteliers as well, it is a cost effective
way to sell your business.
Kind regards

Thank you Aorata - our horticulture business has been SOLD !! It was all so easy. We just sent you a heap of photos and details of our business and a few days later you had produced a brilliant web site. Six weeks later we had two signed offers on the table. I'm convinced this is the best way to sell a business and we saved thousands of dollars on commission and advertising. We would highly recommend Aorata to anyone with a business for sale.

We recently sold our bed manufacturing business The Bed Barn through your Aorata web site. We were delighted with the result as we had spent months previously and several thousand dollars marketing the business unsucessfully with two seperate Real Estate firms. Their fee if sucessful, would have been around $40,000 so selling through Aorata either saved us that amount or gave us more room to negotiate depending on which way you view it. We are sure the new owner will be most satisfied with his acquisition and wish him much success for the future operation of the business. Our thanks go to you for the resultant sale and savings we achieved and we would highly recommend Aorata to any one wanting to sell their business irrespective of size or type.
Yours Faithfully,

We sold through Aorata.com recently our FHGC motel in Coromandel. We sold
to a overseas buyer from the United Kingdom.
I totally believe that Aorata.com is an extremely powerful website ,
especially in the UK market and the rest of overseas and Europe. It
features on on the first search results page when googling businesses for
sale in NZ etc.
I did the DIY package, it was very easy to do and user friendly. I highly
recommend listing on the site. The fee is not expensive and you have the
great advantage of staying on until you sell.
Thanks

I am very pleased with the responses from my advertisement on Aorata. All Real Estate agents that had listed my business produced no where near the amount of leads that Aorata did. I would have no hesitation in recommending Aorata to anyone wishing to sell their business and would use Aorata again if wishing to sell another business.
Thanks for your help.

Following the successful sale recently of two businesses on behalf of clients through Aorata, I was very impressed with the whole process of advertising clients business’s for sale with your company. The setup process is straightforward and costs were very reasonable which was a bonus. We merely onbilled the cost to our clients as a disbursement. We particularly like the idea that computer savvy people could setup their own webpage at a reduced cost compared with the full package. Your website was very easy to navigate with great feedback information available to business sellers on people perusing the website. Aorata was very effective for us resulting in two quick sales for clients – we had tried other forms of advertising and did not receive any positive responses and the relative cost seemed excessive. Both sales were made to parties outside of the immediate area, one from distant overseas. These purchasers would have been virtually impossible to get access to via other forms of advertising, especially at the cost charged. Having access to overseas buyers presents far better value opportunities to local business sellers.
I will definitely use Aorata again if I have any clients wishing to sell their business and certainly recommend anyone looking to sell to list their business with you.
Thank you, I look forward to using Aorata again.
Yours sincerely

I like to say a very big thank you for helping us to sell on your site. I was very dubious to start with but when I see how many people look on your site you wonder if any will buy your place and to us. It was the best thing we done and in so many months replying to people we sold and it was in our own country we did it no fuss no problems and so easy to do and cheaper than estate agents thats for sure. If I wanted to sell again I know where i am going to you lot. thank you very much for the so easy guide of selling and I jumping for joy to be Sold.

To the team at Aorata. We have SOLD, I would like to thank your team for setting up the advertising on your web page. All I done was supply info and you done the rest. It was great keeping track of how many people viewed the page and all the different countrys that people where from. All I had to do well it was listed in your site was confirm if we where still for sale on a monthly basis. For our sale the couple first seen it on AORATA and the process went from there. I would highly recommend your site to anyone that is interested in selling and as far as I am concerned it is value for money.

We have recently sold our Tavern business situated on State Highway 3, between Palmerston North and Sanson. We chose to advertise the business on the Aorata Web site. Interest was almost immediate with enquiries from both New Zealand and overseas. Our successful sale was a result of our Tavern being seen on the Web site. We have recommended Aorata to several other businesses in our region. Thank you Aorata for your professionalism.

Hi,Would just like to thank Aorata for the service they provided in helping us sell our business. In particular small businesses where not paying real estate companies' "commission" can be the icing on the cake. Obviously one has to do quite a bit of extra work with preparing for the sale, you are the expert of your business. But the effort is well compensated for when you do sell. Not to mention the satisfaction of selling ones own business. Thank you Aorata

I am writing to thank you, and your website Aorata for suggesting I try listing my business for sale with you.
I am pleased to inform you that my business in Gisborne has sold successfully, and I even had a couple due to come out from England six weeks later to also buy it.
What attracted me to the idea of listing my business on your website was that I was going to be reaching a much broader market, including international buyers.
Prior to discovering your services, I had been apprehensive about how I was to list my business.
When a business for sale advertisement appears in any Real estate agency publications here, Gisborne people tend to assume there must be something wrong with it, which can affect image and profile. Aorata allowed me to be discreet and only target genuine business buyers without sending out the wrong messages and causing any confusion to my market place.
My buyers made the comment they were thankful for dealing directly, and informally, with me rather than through an agent as well.
Again I would like to thank Aorata website listing services, and recommend any business to give Aorata a try. It's money well spent.

Hi Folks
We found the Aorata website created all the interest we hoped for. Enquiries came from the UK, Singapore, Japan, Spain, Australia and within New Zealand. The site enabled us to describe what the motel consisted off via the photographs and the write-up, and the interested buyers were able to contact us directly. Although we sold our interest after twelve years we had made the odd attempt to sell but pulled back a few times when we couldn’t decide what path to take next. The motel created a good income and a comfortable place to be. However when we finally bit the bullet and decided what to do next the motel lease was sold in a matter of months.
We were listed with a couple of agents who filtered out those who didn’t stand a chance because of their financial position. We also had our share, via the Aorata site, and they probably made up 50% of all our enquiries.
During our last months we had both agents bringing clients to the motel but we also had our own buyer in the pipeline. Aorata.com only charged for the site advertising but the agen’s commission fees amounted to around $23000.00 for a successful sale. We would have had to load the asking price to account for that or lose $23000 from our asking price. Businesses attract a commission rate of 6% against a commission of 3.5 to 4% for residential property. As it turned out the buyers had the benefit of a fair asking price without a commission. Aorata doesn’t charge one, we were happy and so were they. Dave Harris Parkview Motel Dargaville, New Zealand

Dear Aorata,
We would like to take this opportunity to thank Aorata for helping us sell our Boarding Kennel and Cattery Business. We found the whole process very simple yet very imformative and thorough.
Our sale not only involved a Business but also a Lifestyle Block and House and yet we were able to get plenty of information about the whole package on our 'site' plus all the photos. The availability of forms to download such as the ' Confidentiality Agreement' and the 'How to Guide' were invaluable.
We had previously tried to sell our business through the normal avenues but found it much easier to tell and show people ourselves about our setup rather than them working through an agent, it simply meant that they received all the information and had all their questions answered straight away from the people who really know the business - US!!
We have and will continue to recommend the Aorata method of selling, it certainly gets your business for sale out to the right people without being intrusive and affecting clientelle and turnover, again thankyou for your help!

Hi guys.
Just a quick note to say I sold my vending machine business through your
Aorata website. Got plenty of interest, and your site generated a surprising
number of qualified leads for me. I met with a couple of people, but ended
up selling to another operator who found my business on your website.
The whole process was easy and successful. What more could I want?
A quick and effective sale, and I was very happy with the result. So was my
wife - I bought her a sports car with some of the proceeds!

As you know our sale was finalised on 28th June. Thank you for all of your support and the statistics you provided on numbers accessing our web site.
We had a constant flow of enquires throughout the period we were posted, both nationally and internationally. There was great number of requests from the UK, Europe, Australia and the USA.
We would have had a very hard time marketing our property without your assitance, as our lodge was in a small town in Northland. We had orginally engaged a local real estate agent and paid him the same fee as for our Web site at www.business4sale.co.nz (business rebranded to Aorata) - and he provided us with the sign on the lawn and one (1) inquiry.
Ultimately our lodge was sold to a buyer from the UK who flew over especially to view and pruchase.
Again, thanks for your assistance and we would not hesitate to use your business as first stop or to recommend you to others if we required this type of service again.
Regards

Just to say that we were very happy with the Web site advertising service provided by business4sale.co.nz (business rebranded to Aorata).
The cost is not huge compared to that of running ongoing ads in the newspapers and had the advantage of coming with good advice on the selling process. One can provide comprehensive details of the business for sale on the Web site eliminating the time involved in dealing wih buyer inquiries from people who just want a bit more detail but who may or may not be seriously interested. A big advantage is the exposure to the international community.

We wish to inform you that we have sold our business the Waiwera Motel in Auckland this week from your Web site www.Aorata.co.nz
We were approached by the purchaser via email and they arrived to view our property the following day. A couple of days later they returned with the deposit to purchase. It was a straight forward procedure. I took the purchaser in to visit my lawyer and it was signed and sealed on the day.
We found having a Web page with you was very effective. Not a week went by without us being contacted from the site by people interested in purchasing our business. The Web site you produced was very helpful in explaining to people what we were selling and also the lifestyle of the Hibiscus Coast. We would recommend anyone wanting to sell their business to contact Aorata and they will be only to happy to assist you with a Web page for selling your business.
The icing on the cake was not having to pay commission to any real estate agent or broker and we were able to complete the sale ourselves with the help of our lawyer.
We recommend this method of selling a business to anyone.

If you are wanting to sell your business, we are very happy to recommend Aorata. We owned a Motor camp and decided to sell. Two years ago we approached an Estate Agent to sell our business. After only 10 days on the market we withdrew our property because we relaised that the Agent knew nothing at all about our business. We knew we were disadvantaged from the very start.
I approached Aorata last August this year. They produced a fantastic web page for us and released it to the internet site on Friday 18 September. That evening we received a phone call from an interested couple, and Saturday morning we received a phone call from another interested couple. They were both looking specifically for a Motor Camp to purchase and they both knew exactly what they wanted. We did not take any further enquires after that day. Both of these couples came to visit the property and an offer to purchase was made to us on 7 October. First contact was made within 24 hours of going to the Web site!! I am happy to say that we made a very sucessful sale and we will be moving on 15 November. The new owners are also extremely happy. Many thanks to Aorata, without their fantastic support this would never have happened. We will recommend this method of selling to a business to anyone.

George and I would like to thank you very much for the support while selling our business on your Web site. We had previously tried selling through a couple of Land Agents and Motel Brokers, however, after a couple of years and a lot of negativity decided to give your Web site a go. We had many people interested and eventually after a few short months sold to an overseas buyer. We found the information provided and guidance that the process fell into place and with the help of a good Lawyer it was quite painless. We are very satisfied with the professional manner you conduct your business. We have and will continue to recommend anyone.

We were absolutely delighted with both the service given and the results obtained when selling our business on the business4sale (business rebranded to Aorata) Web site. They did all the work setting up our web page, but ensured that we were completely happy with the result before it went live. Not only did we get a quick result with a Sale and Purchase Agreement signed up within only 6 weeks or so, but we also found the web page a great timesaver and relief because we were able to send telephone or off-the-street enquirers to the Web page for information, rather than spending precious time talking them through our business activities.

When I came to sell my business late last year, I was at a slight loss knowing exactly how to achieve my goal without spending lots of money on agents fees etc. I found the site
easily, and when I contacted them they were very prompt replying, and sent me very useful verbal and written information. The booklet I received which contained samples of the various forms required at each step along the way to the completed sale was indispensable.
My business sold quickly and it sold to very suitable buyers at the price I was seeking. I would have no hesitation in recommending the services of business4sale (business rebranded to Aorata) Keriblue Ltd Kerikeri, New Zealand

We wish to confirm that we now have an unconditional offer for the purchase of the Motel. This was was in direct response to our Website which you set up on our behalf at Aorata.

Pleased to let you know that we have sold the business...Coopers Beach Sports.
Thank you & your team for providing us with such a wonderful "tool" which we were able to use successfully in marketing the shop.We have recommended your very professional site to others who are also considering selling.
We are now considering marketing the building as a 'business opportunity' and would appreciate your forwarding another application form to follow up that option.
Once again,many thanks and best wishes,
