I can't say enough great things about Rita! She is absolutely AMAZING—so knowledgeable and generous with her expertise. She provided me with so much valuable information and advice on selling my business, all at no cost. Her insights were incredibly helpful, and she took the time to guide me through every detail. If you're looking for someone who truly knows their stuff and genuinely wants to help, I highly recommend Rita. She is a rare gem in the industry!

Update: I bought a cleaning company with the help of Rita, 9 months ago now.

Fast forward, we went from 15k revenue per month to over 100k per month now! Yes we put in a lot of hard work, but a lot of credit goes to Rita because she helped us find the right business that had the right systems in place to grow with. A good foundation so to say.

Been talking to Rita about the possibility of selling. We might wait it out a bit more and grow more to get top dollar. But once we are ready, Rita will be the one listing it!

Rita went the extra mile to help both the buyer and seller. I was the buyer in this transaction. She was tenacious about the timeline and letting us each know what was needed at each step. She kept things moving on schedule. Thank you Rita for your professionalism and expertise!

I have been searching for a business to buy for several months. I have dealt with many business brokers. Rita Barbato is by far the best and most professional business broker that I have dealt with. She has been a pleasure to deal with. She answers my messages, phone calls, or emails in a timely fashion. Rita carefully listens to my questions and she makes sure that she understands what information I am asking for and then she gets me the answers to my questions quickly. She has great follow up too. I can tell that she truly cares for both the seller and buyer in a transaction. Rita learns as much as she can about a business that she represents so she can answer a buyers questions effectively. I strongly recommend Rita to both buyers and sellers of businesses!

I got full price, all cash, and the perfect buyer for my business. Working with Rita as my business broker was an incredible experience from start to finish. Honestly, when I first started considering selling my business, I didn’t even believe it was possible. The thought of finding a buyer who would see the value in what I’d built and pay the price it was worth seemed like a dream. But Rita changed everything for me. She not only convinced me that my business could sell—she gave me the confidence to believe that it could be sold for top dollar.

From our very first conversation, Rita’s warmth, professionalism, and expertise shone through. She took the time to understand my business, my goals, and my concerns. Her approach wasn’t just about making a sale; it was about truly understanding what I wanted from the process. She guided me with such patience and clarity, explaining each step, answering every question, and keeping me informed throughout. Rita made something that felt incredibly daunting seem completely achievable and even exciting.

What really stood out was how effortlessly she managed everything. The entire process was smooth and remarkably stress-free. She coordinated every detail, and her thorough understanding of the market was invaluable. It felt like having a partner who was completely invested in my success—someone who had my back every step of the way.

In the end, selling my business was not just a financial gain but a deeply rewarding experience, thanks to Rita. Her dedication, insight, and skill made all the difference. I didn’t just gain an amazing result; I gained a tremendous amount of respect and gratitude for her work. If you’re looking for someone who will exceed your expectations and make the whole journey worthwhile, I couldn’t recommend Rita more highly. She’s truly exceptional at what she does, and I feel incredibly lucky to have worked with her.

Rita is an excellent communicator and an extremely hard worker. She always keeps the ball rolling, so that things don't take longer than they should, she makes things HAPPEN, and she always keeps her clients in the loop. I don't think there is any broker that will work as hard as Rita does to sell your business! She is relentless in making things happen quickly, which is what you want when dealing with banks, escrow agencies, and other institutions known to be very slow moving. She sold mine for let's just say a lot of digits 🙂 And best of all, she found a perfect buyer that will keep the business thriving. I couldn't have asked for a better, more hard-working broker! Thanks Rita! Can't wait to celebrate on Friday!

Rita is amazing. She will fight for you! This was my first time selling a business. She worked hard to help find a buyer and negotiate with them. She also helped walk me and the buyer through all the necessary legal steps to closing. We will definitely use her again when the time comes for my husband to sell his business. I highly recommend her.

I'm on the buyer side of business and I reached out to many brokers inquiring on their business listings for sale and found that many do not respond or take several days to respond.

Within an hour of inquiring not only did Rita email me all relevant documents, she called me and took the time to answer all of my questions.

Highly recommend!
