SELLING A POST OFFICE

If you're considering selling your LPO, speak to Neil Hollender of LPO Brokers for expert advice

Thank you for another successful sale! This is the second time I've benefitted from your ability to sell the LPO and guide the buyer through the process with Australia Post. 

J' - St Peters LPO (2019) & Bardwell Park LPO (2022)

Our 5 key points of difference to other brokers:

1. Security in the deal

 

When working for Australia Post, Neil Hollender, the principal of LPO Brokers was amazed to witness the number of post office deals that fell through for various reasons such as finance issues, buyers rejected by Australia Post and even buyers pulling out of a deal on the last day of the training period. 

This of course caused a lot of frustration for sellers.

When Neil left Australia Post to start LPO Brokers, his mission was obvious: to provide sellers the security they need – to ensure that once a buyer was found, nothing will stop the deal from happening. As Neil was aware of the various reasons deals fell through, he knew what had to be done.

Our agency implements various operational and legal procedures to ensure all deals will go through smoothly. We assists buyers with all paperwork including preparation of business plans and cash flow projections. 

2. Professional advantage

Neil Hollender, the principal of LPO Brokers, is a Certified Practicing Accountant (CPA) with a strong accounting background (Ernst&Young alumni).

The first thing a buyer will do after obtaining the financials of your LPO is take them to their accountant. The buyer’s accountant will do a review of the business. Given that Neil is an accountant, he speaks the same accounting “language” as the buyer’s accountant.

The ability to answer the accountant’s questions in a way that makes sense to them has proven extremely efficient in getting the “go ahead” confirmation. This increases the chance of your LPO being sold.

3. Zero risk for sellers

We don't ask sellers for any exclusivity period - not 6 months, 6 weeks or even 6 days. We want LPO owners to use our service because they want to, not because they are stuck with us. 

We also don't charge sellers any upfront fees. We don't get paid before you get paid - when the LPO is sold. 

4. Admin fee

We charge a small admin fee from buyers to ensure that your financial information is only shared with genuine potential buyers.

5. No seller involvement

 

Other brokers expect you to meet buyers and tell them about your business. This is not your job. This is the broker's job. Your job is to run the LPO - not sell it.

When we sell your business, we will never put you in a position where you need to host inspections and spend time meeting prospective buyers.
