Attention all my viewers , if you’re looking for a top hair do in the most beautiful town on the planet Nelson Bay call in and see Belinda at the Best Hairdressers in town at shop 3/57 Donald Street Nelson Bay
Don’t forget to tell her I sent you!

Cathryn from Arwon Realty definitely knows her job and what she is talking about. We didn't know what we were doing. We called Cathryn and she came in and took it off our hands and she did all the running around and talking. She gave us confidence and a very nice Christmas present...the sale!

We thank you Cathryn for all of your hard work and giving us the opportunity to welcome our baby boy into the world without having the pressure of finding a buyer ourselves.

Hi Cathryn,

On behalf of Marg and myself, we would like to thank you for the fantastic effort you put in to sell our our business, BP Park Service Station in Bacchus Marsh Victoria. We found your company through the Internet and noticed that you had sold some businesses in Narooma, where we take our annual holidays. One phone call to you was all that it took and within a couple of days you were at our Service Station and we even had you serving behind the counter.

Despite our reservations, you valued our business much more than we ever expected, and you were adamant that we would sell very near to your price. You would call every couple of days and advise us of the number of enquiries regarding our business.

Well the rest is history, with a local couple purchasing the business, Marg and I have been able to have some quality time to ourselves, something we have been unable to do for 13 years.

Cath, Marg and I would like to sincerely thank you for the fantastic effort you put in to sell our business. It has been a pleasure to deal with you {and Bill} and we would have no hesitation recommending you and your company Arwon Realty to any prospective customer.

Best regards,

Alan and Margaret Quick

"Thanks Cathy for your assistance in selling our much loved family business. Your constant touching base with us throughout the sale was very much appreciated. You were recommended to us, and we are delighted to and have recommended Arwon Reality to others."

"We have now completed our first month in Ojays Cafe and we are pleased to say that the business is developing exactly as planned which in turn gives both Carol and I confidence for the future.

Now that the dust has settled I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the support and assistance you gave during the time we were assessing the business, your quick response to questions that needed to be answered together with the advice you offered was greatly appreciated.

It is pleasing to note that people who believe in providing service and co-operation are still around and I would certainly place you in this category.
When the time comes for Carol and I to move on rest assured you will be the one we will turn to to sell the business."

Malcolm Blake, Narooma NSW

"We wanted to express our deeply felt gratitude to you for the professional manner in which you handled the sale of our business, Ojays Cafe.

When we first decided to place our business on the market we were naturally apprehensive and contacted several marketing agents for information regarding procedures, costs etc. You were the only agent who had sent us a letter of introduction (2 years prior) and whom we felt was interested in us as individuals without the "hard sell".

Our judgment was further confirmed when after our first meeting at which we were convinced that you were the right person to handle our business. We would like to compliment you on your professionalism and the manner in which you kept us informed every step of the way over the three month period it took to complete the sale.

We appreciated your honesty throughout the negotiations and your knowledge of procedural processes required when it became evident that we had a buyer. We are extremely happy with the price you were able to secure for our business (about 20% more than we would have been happy with) and we have had no hesitation in referring your services to other business owners in our area."

"Recently I purchased a business through Arwon Realty in Nowra and was fortunate to receive all the assistance I required to the multitude of issues together culminating in a very smooth transition from the vendor.

This was solely due to the help and advice I received from Cathryn Deudney during the course of negotiations. Her willingness to keep me informed of developments, assisting me to put into effect changes to contracts and to pursue specific issues during the negotiations stages were all greatly appreciated. As a first time buyer of a business I was very reliant on good advice which I found was always forthcoming. Subsequently, I have found that her advice was very sound and much of Cathryn's business knowledge, predictions for my business and advice have materialised.

I had confidence in Cathryn's ability knowing that my interests as well as those of the vendor were her primary objective. Her professional approach to the sale was always evident.

In all I was pleased with the service I received and I would not hesitate to recommend her services to others considering the purchase of a business."

Trevor Barrington, Bomaderry NSW

"Thank you Cathryn for successfully selling our Darrell Lea Chocolate Shop and Cafe business so quickly. We were extremely impressed with your professionalism and attention to detail in managing this sale. You provided us with regular phone contact to keep us up to date with the progress of the sale and we appreciated your flexibility in organising meetings around our schedule.

The communication between all parties was handed expertly and you returned phone calls very promptly. I was grateful for your presence at the stocktake and for the follow up you did on some problems such as the lease issues and other legal matters. In short we found your service exceptional and have already recommended you to other interested persons. On a personal note, thank you also for being so sensitive and caring about our situation."

Dear Cathryn,

Gus and I would like to thank you for the sale of our business, Incredible Edibles of Nelson Bay. As you know we had tried to sell privately for about a year with no success, we were beginning to wonder if it would ever happen. From the first day you gave us confidence and lifted the pressure of selling from our shoulders.

Thank you for always returning calls (day or night), answering our questions and chasing solicitors! There were many issues well beyond contracts and paper work that you dealt with on our behalf without a worry.

Thanks again Cathryn, you did a fantastic job and it was our pleasure to have met you.

Jennifer Pollard & Gus Viera

Dear Catherine,

Max and I would Like to thank you for all the help in securing a sale for our business.

We were very impressed by your professional manner and appreciate all the advise in preparing our business for sale and for your care during and after the transaction.

To say we were delighted with the eventual resultant sale would be a under statement. You went out of your way to ensure the sale proceeded as you indicated it would.

Your preparation of all the legal documentation was indeed of the highest standard and bought forth much praise from our solicitors who also appreciated your professionalism.

Thank you once again Cath Max and I wish you all the best in the future.

In appreciation,
Yours Truly

We would like to compliment you on your professionalism and the manner in which you kept us informed every step of the way over the three month period it took to complete the sale.

Earlier this year we became interested in a business that was listed on Better Business Buys website, we contacted Cathryn Austin in regards to this business. Right from the start Cathryn was extremely helpful, all information was faxed within hours and all questions were answered very promptly.

When we decided to fly down and check out the business Cathryn help us with directions, finding accommodation and over dinner answered our many questions about the town and local area.

Once we decided to purchase the business Cathryn took care of all the details, she even went house hunting on our behalf taking many photos and emailing them to us.

The purchase of the business and moving from QLD to NSW went very smoothly, much of this was due to the excellent service and help provided by Cathryn, this level of help and service is not often seen today.

I would highly recommend Cathryns services to anyone thinking about selling or buying a house or business.

After having had our business for sale for a number of years with various agents we decided to give Catherine Austin at Arwon Realty a go. Right from the word go Catherine generated a lot of interest, both locally and Australia wide. She was always friendly, courteous and easy to get along with. She always acted on our behalf in a professional manner making the sale of our business smooth and stress-free. We would recommend using her services to anyone with a business to sell.
