Who does the work
Ron reads the books. Sharon reads the building.
Two disciplines under one roof, for owners whose business and building have to be dealt with together.
Two disciplines under one roof, for owners whose business and building have to be dealt with together.
Ron spent his career as a chief financial officer at a Fortune 500 company, and the years since teaching advisors how businesses are valued, how cash flow actually behaves, and where the money really sits in a deal.
He performs every valuation himself. There is no analyst, no offshore team, and no template with your name dropped into it — which is also why he can tell you, in plain language, exactly why your number is what it is.
A buyer is not paying for what you built. They are paying for what keeps running after you stop.
He reads three years of returns, profit-and-loss statements and balance sheets himself, corrects the earnings line by line, and puts his reasoning on the page beside the figure so an accountant on the other side of a deal can follow it.
Sharon built commercial buildings before she sold them. She started in architectural drafting, spent the eighties managing retail construction projects, and finished that half of her career as Vice President of Construction for a national chain’s Northeast division.
Then thirty years in commercial real estate — including twelve as Broker of Record running her own firm — and since 2017 with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices The Preferred Realty, where she is Commercial Regional Manager and an Associate Broker.
Spend $100,000 on the roof, or lose $500,000 on the price.
She teaches the industry as well as working in it: an instructor in both commercial real estate and commercial construction, a founding member of Commercial Real Estate Women in 1996, and named to Pennsylvania’s Top 50 Women in Business.
A business broker who does not price property, or a real estate agent who does not read financial statements, can each only see half of what an owner actually holds. Ron values the business and the building and writes the opinion of value; Sharon takes the property to market. Nobody has to hand the file to a stranger halfway through.
Four minutes for a free range, or the written opinion of value when you need it to hold up.
