David Conrad of Blue Ridge Brokerage did an excellent job selling our commercial property.  He handled the listing, showing, offer and contract professionally and efficiently.  He was a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend him.

My builder, Shawn Corey, referred me to David Conrad when I was seeking land to build a commercial space and not only did he find me the perfect location, and help negotiate a great deal, he then brought a buyer that I couldn’t turn down making the entire transaction seamless and extremely professional throughout. I would highly recommend David to anyone seeking a realtor that knows the area with incredible real estate acumen and integrity. 

Thanks again David- I’m sure we will be working together again…hopefully sooner than later! Todd

A friend of our referred us to David Conrad when we mentioned we were thinking about selling our home management business.  We were unsure if we could sell being that we were not a contract base business.  After speaking with David, we felt very confident in selling the business.  He helped us tremendously with calculating what the business was worth.  He walked us through every step along the way all the way to closing.  He kept in contact with us and did an awesome job advertising.  We would highly recommend David as your next commercial realtor.

Hi David,

My partner and I have bought and sold numerous commercial properties and it is not an exaggeration to say we have never worked with a more professional agent.  Your efforts are greatly appreciated (especially all of the little things that no one would expect from a realtor).  Thank you for hanging in there and helping us sell a difficult property for very good value.

I just want to say thanks to Blue Ridge Brokerage and David Conrad.

David worked tirelessly to bring me a good buyer for my commercial property. He is honest, hard-working, and a pleasure to work with. If you are selling or buying commercial property, I would highly recommend David and Blue Ridge Brokerage.

Dear David,

I want to thank you again for the wonderful job you did selling my commercial building. You have been so very helpful during the whole time that my building was on the market.

We just wanted to write a note to thank David Conrad for the great job he did in selling our long-running business - Pineola Inn. David worked tirelessly and was a joy to work with. He is honest and a hard worker. He marketed our business very well and found buyers out of state that soon fell in love with Pineola Inn, and David took them to the closing. Now we have time to enjoy our lives. If you are contemplating selling your business and/or commercial real estate, we would highly recommend David and Blue Ridge Brokerage.

Wayne and I appreciate all of your efforts in getting our business sold.  We believe that you found a buyer that saw the potential in our business and has the vision to carry the business to greater heights.  We enjoyed working with you and learned a great deal from you.  You have definitely built a relationship with  many  business investors and know how to market a business to those clients.  Prior to listing our business with you, we had listed our property for two years with other agencies.  You immediately contacted viable clients and we received a contract within a couple of months.  Thank you for helping to make our retirement a reality!

Mr. David Conrad worked tirelessly to find a buyer for our five acre industrial property, helping us to understand what was needed in the transfer of such land and finding potential buyers that could utilize the space for their business ventures.  David's communication was great throughout the process - completely personable, approachable and informative with any questions or conversation we might have.  We were fortunate to find such an excellent, experienced individual in the commercial real estate field and definitely consider Mr. Conrad to be one of the top agents in the High Country area.

David Conrad of Blue Ridge Brokerage is patient, knowledgeable, kind and hard working. I first met David in 2008 when he listed and sold my eight store specialty retail chain. Even after all the Ts were crossed, David always checked in to be sure we were doing well. After a long time on the market, with David's guidance, I finally sold road frontage acres close to a river. Now I can focus on my current business, children and home. Not only is David a good person, he knows Real Estate Sales and is not afraid of taking on the Tough Jobs. From hiking rural property lines to constantly scanning for the right buyer, David is the right agent for the job! He knows about the many pitfalls of commercial real estate sales and is always available to steer his clients in the right direction! Thanks for all the care and work over the last fifteen years! If I decide to sell commercially again, I know I can succeed with David representing me!

It’s my pleasure to offer my unreserved recommendation for David Conrad with Blue Ridge Business Brokers.

I’ve known David for over 10 years, having lived here in the High Country of Western North Carolina I have watched David market, sell and guide buyers and sellers in the acquisition of business and real estate deals. He’s always demonstrated responsibility and entrepreneurial spirit. When I met David it was seeking to value a business and asked his option about how to do that, David took me in his office and not only explained how that can be done, but also looked up specifics on my industry and other business’s like mine that had been sold for.

Since then, I’ve bought a business that he brokered both sides of the deal and it went seamlessly, David handle every aspect professionally and mindfully. Years later, when I decide to sell my business there was no one other than David Conrad of Blue Ridge Business Brokers that I would consider.

Of course, you should know David has the best reputation for integrity, knowledge and ability to sell your business here in the high country. His professional abilities and client’s recommendations have successful placed him at the top of the list with anyone serious about successfully selling their business.
What you might not know is the joy David gets from solving problems and making business ideas work. It’s truly inspiring to see him tackle something and make it a success.

David and his team “Get it Done”, I know that he has a particular passion for putting the right sellers with buyers to create a smooth transaction, if needed I’d be happy to answer any questions or discuss my recommendation further. Please feel free to call me at 828-387-1970.

Dear David,

Just wanted to thank you for the hard work that you and your firm did to find us a buyer for our property. Wer know it was difficult, but you worked hard and kept us up to date often. The property definitely had some issues, but you guided us through the process and took us to a sale.

We would recommend you to anyone! Thanks for your hard work.

Dear David,

I just wanted to say thank you to you, my friend, for all the time, effort, energy and counsel you gave to my wife, Maureen, and me during the time you had our building listed for sale with Blue Ridge Brokerage. You never seemed to loose your optimism and always had time to listen to me and guide us through the tedious process of selling a building we had occupied for over 30 years. Finally in the end, we did sell it, again with your same calmness and guidance you had showed us during the entire listing process.

And on top of all that, you helped us rent an office space not far from our previous location and helped us through the lease signing process for that new office space.

I don't think we could have done all of this without your help. Thank you again, David, and be assured that you are my go to realtor in the future. Please use us as a reference. It would be our pleasure.

The best of luck in the future.

Always,

Good afternoon David, this is Kevin Tincher from Blue Ridge Bites and Brews. I just wanted to say Thank You for assisting us with the sale of our business.

We were especially appreciative of your professional attitude and personal help in providing all of the information we needed upon request. Also, whenever we had a question or concern during the process you were readily available to take a phone call or send us a text to help out and that small detail really impressed us.

If we ever have the opportunity to sell or purchase a business in the High Country again, you will be on the top of our list of brokers and contacts.

Once again thank you for everything.

Dear David,

We want to let you know how much we appreciate your assistance in selling We're Good Sports. Certainly it took a little longer than either of us had hoped but we are grateful for your persistence. Since we have owned this retail establishment for over twenty years, it was comforting to us that you found a buyer that seems to appreciate the concept of a small family owned business.

If we may ever be of assistance to you in any way, please let us know. We would gladly recommend your services to our peers.

To Whom it May Concern:

I am writing to give my strongest recommendation to Mr. David Conrad of Blue Ridge Business Brokerage. I recently listed with him my property management business, feeling that it might take a few years to sell a business in this rural area. David was very helpful in determining what pieces of financial information might be best to provide to potential buyers and moved quickly to market my business. I was kept informed throughout the process, and was pleased to have multiple interested parties, resulting in a sale in less than 90 days for very nearly the exact asking price At no time during the process was there any doubt that David was promoting my best interests.

David worked diligently on my behalf to conclude the transaction, even having to sacrifice a portion of his commission at the last minute to keep the closing on track.

I could not have asked for a more professional and determined broker and am pleased to give David and his company my highest recommendation.

September 2017

When it came time to find a broker, David performed hours of due diligence to sell my business; Sweet Frog Yogurt Store in Johnson City, TN. With a lower commission rate than other brokers, and a guarantee of a quick sale, David really stood out. His extensive experience in this business enabled our business to sell smoothly. In short- David definitely DELIVERED IT!!

Thank you David for all your hard work in the selling of my business, Cabin Fever of Blowing Rock, Inc. You demonstrate professionalism and honesty, excellent service, dependability and frequent communication between all parties. Your attention to details, as well as your knowledge of the current market, assisted in helping me understand what prospects were looking for in a business. Your marketing efforts brought several qualified prospects to meet with us and had two offers to consider. You provided the support and confidence needed for a smooth closing.

I am happy to recommend your services to anyone interested in buying or selling a business.

Thank you so much for trying to sell my business and that I am sorry that there were problems that were beyond your control.

You put so much time, effort and energy into your work and from me and on behalf of your other clients--WE THANK YOU.

Sale of Mrs. Brumbles

It is with great respect that we write this THANK YOU to David Conrad.

He possesses many important qualities that are essential to the sale of one's business. However, his most important trait was his ADVICE. Selling a business presents numerous ups and downs. David's advice enabled us to stay focused and ultimately reach our goal of the fair sale of our business. This would not have occurred with out David.

We recommend him UNCONDITIONALLY.

November 20, 2014

I just wanted to drop you a line to express our appreciation for your role in the recent sale of our business, Rivers Street Deli. Despite many years in the business, we felt somewhat overwhelmed with the time constraints the Deli was causing in our family time. It became apparent very quickly that the timing of this venture was less than ideal. This was a problem so far as how to extract ourselves from the situation, in which we had invested considerable time and money, financially whole. It's never an easy sell when you have less than one year's sales to present to potential buyers. This is not a position I would wish on anyone, however, if someone was to find themselves similarly perplexed I would now know how to advise them. Call Blue Ridge Business Brokerage and ask for David Conrad. The man who was able to sell our business in a matter of months and above asking price! Did I mention at above asking price? Couple that with top notch professionalism and attention to every detail and you couldn't ask for better representation. David thank you for everything, I'm now spending lots of time with my kids and enjoying every minute of it.

June and I want to thank you for the quick and excellent job you did for us in selling our home on Highway 194, here in Boone.

April 14, 2012

David Conrad, The sale of our business was not an easy choice for us to make. It was after much decision making concerning our final best interest for our family and the time requirements for our children and ourselves. It was full of emotional ups and downs. We did not know ultimately how it was going to turn out. We had never sold a "business" before and did not know what was involved. I wanted to take a moment and follow up with you with a word of thanks. My wife and myself have been very pleased with the process of the sale of our business. I appreciated the straight to the point honesty and integrity through the whole process. There was never any "smoke and mirrors" or false promises. We were very appreciative of the detail which was explained to us during each step.

You are a kind and patient person who worked hard for us to find the best buyer for our business. Not only did you find us a buyer, our family has made new friends with the new owners of our business as well as yourself. Should we consider purchasing a business in the future or need to sell a business, Blue Ridge Business Brokerage will be our first choice.

October 23, 2013

David, We did it! After seven years of operation, my wife and I sold The River Dog last month. You worked so hard on our behalf to make this happen. I'm writing to say thanks and to give you credit for pulling off a difficult task.

We came to you two years ago. The River Dog was performing well, but we needed to relocate to South Carolina, where Joy had taken a job and where our parents needed help. We had never sold a business, and needed a professional to guide the process. You had a good reputation.

It was a terrible time to sell. The great recession was still lingering. Few people wanted to take the plunge into business, and banks didn't want to lend money. Your website generated some early leads, but no offers. We waited a year. We did not want to close and liquidate. We knew the business was profitable enough to attract a buyer. We decided to stay open.

We went through a long, frustrating period when nothing happened. But you never forgot about The River Dog. You notified me whenever someone took even a slight interest. You called every few months with encouragement. You showed me that other businesses that were selling. You always believed a buyer would come along for us. Two very serious prospects popped up in the past six months, but each gave up for lack of financing. Don't lose hope, you said, I still believe I can sell your business.

You called in August, excited but cautious. This might be it, you said. They're serious, eager. They know the industry, and they don't need financing. The River Dog is exactly what they're looking for. It came together quickly. Within a week the offer was on the table. Three weeks of due diligence and we had a deal. During this stressful period, you earned your commission. You were the conduit for all communications between me and the buyers, often a dozen or more emails, phone calls and texts each day. You were clearly my advocate, but you effectively walked the fine line between the two sides. You were candid about what I could expect to happen. The negotiations were tough. Neither side got exactly what it wanted, but I always got the sense from you that we could make this happen.

Joy and I trusted you to guide us through one of the most important financial situations of our lives. And you cam through for us. Greatest thanks, David.

David, Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! We are so pleased with the sale of our business, Mission Foods, by Blue Ridge Business Brokerage. I was fortunate to learn of your business from a fellow food distributor and am thrilled that he gave you such a glowing recommendation and that you were impressed with our business to take the challenge.

While I enjoyed working as a food distributor with Mission Foods, events necessitated the sale. It was unfortunate that, after a snow storm, I fractured my elbow that required surgery, physical therapy , and a considerable amount of time that I was unable to fully work my route. Thanks to you, you were able to find a buyer who would qualify for the purchase and who would maintain the relationships I had developed over the past two years. I was confident that the business would be in good hands.

I appreciated your attention to detail and your willingness to keep me updated with developments in the sales process. You were always available to answer any questions I may have had and I also appreciated your honesty and integrity.

Again, thanks so much for your assistance in selling my business.

David,

Just a few but sincere words of thanks on the way you handles the sale of our business.

From the day we contacted you inquiring on how and what we need to do to sell the business, to the day the sale of the business closed, you stayed in constant touch with us, honestly advised us, and legitimately worked for us. You never hesitated to respond to any of our concerns, and always followed up on any pending issues with the buyers.

Your knowledge and expertise on how to sell a business, and your wise guidance, made the process so much less stressful on us.

David,

Just wanted to thank you for a job once again done well. This is the second acreage tract that you have sold for my wife and me....in both cases you found a buyer quickly and acted in a very professional and ethical manner.

I would recommend you and Blue Ridge Business Brokerage to anyone wishing to sell their property up here in the High Country.

Thank you!

David,

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for representing me in the sale of my business, Menchies in Boone.

I have sold and purchased a dozen properties in my life and you are by far the most professional, knowledgeable and attentive broker I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

You clearly set expectations. Superseded all projected deadlines. Promoted and represented myself and my business beyond my expectations.

I would highly recommend you and your services to anyone in need of a broker.

You are a true professional and now a friend.

I wish you all the best and I will always be grateful for your outstanding job with my business.

I would love to share my experience working with David Conrad of Blueridge Brokerage who sold my small business in West Jefferson, NC. I owned a Home Care Agency licensed by the state of NC. My business was very specialized, requiring a Registered Nurse to oversee the day to day operations so I did not expect it to sell as quickly as some businesses. David gave my small business the same professional care as he did his million dollar plus listings. He made me feel as if my business was his only listing. He gave expert advice and was always available. David is a very ethical, trustworthy individual. We are of like minds, "always do the right thing". I gave him the reins and he did not disappoint me. He was a pleasure to work with and my mind was always at ease with him. My business sold, I'm now retired and I miss our frequent conversations. I highly recommend David, he took the stress out of this transaction and made my life so much easier. He stayed positive throughout the whole process and it was wonderful having the benefit of his knowledge and expertise. I didn't have to worry about a thing from beginning to end. He was wonderful about staying in touch. I am sooo glad that I chose David to sell my business and you will be too.

When looking to sell our townhouse project in the High Country area, my wife and I knew it was very important to find the right business broker for the job. The property was a complicated real estate package and we needed someone with the knowledge to take on such a listing as well as knowing how to market the property on a local and nationally level. Knowing we would be in good hands was especially important as we were out of town owners.

David Conrad not only met the above criteria we were hoping for, but far exceeded our expectations. David continually stayed in touch with us and provided updates, marketing techniques, showing details, etc.

And when David put our property under contract, he provided exemplary service in the transition period until closing.

We simply cannot recommend David highly enough and look forward to using his professional services for both buying and selling in the future.

Brandy & David,

Now that the dust has settled and we are moving into a new year we can catch our breath and send you a long overdue, THANK YOU!!!! We have been so grateful to have this opportunity to move to this WONDERFUL town and to own this INCREDIBLE business. We owe this very special gift to both of you for finding us the perfect match in Cafe Portofino and the perfect people from whom to purchase it. Burt & Sandee have become dear, life long, friend to us. They have been terrific through the transition and now we see them in the restaurant and outside and they are there if we need them in any way they can be. We find it so remarkable that you have matched us so perfectly in this serendipitous union.

From the moment Brandy called us to tell us that she had found the perfect place for us and even assuring us that all would be fine, even if it was a restaurant, the experience has been first class & delightful. You both were so patient and helpful through the entire process, call after call, email after email, forgotten detail after detail and even when things looked grim for a day or two. Thank you for your professionalism, kindness, reassurance, support, attention to detail, lending an ear and for celebrating with us at the closing.

We sincerely hope the holiday season was HAPPY & HEALTHY for both of you and your families. We hope you both have a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year and we look forward to seeing you. Thank you for making the dream of being mountain residents, A REALITY!!

David,

I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your handling of the sale of my business.

You worked hard - fairly and honestly, and got this transaction done in a timely manner.

I am now ready to go forward with my life and I thank you for your efforts.

David was awesome when helping me with the sale of my business. We had a long period before we finally got this thing sold but he was there for every step and kept me in the loop at every stage. He came highly recommended and he was worth the praise. I am very happy with the end result. If I decide to either buy or sell another business, He will be my first call.

David did a great job executing the sale of our restaurant. He is relentless when it comes to securing a buyer. He is easy to discuss matters with. He is also straight forward which eliminates misunderstandings.

David worked tirelessly to ensure a smooth closing. The timing was perfect.

I see why David closes so many deals.

Thank you David for your help!!

David,

I just wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU for helping me sell my building. The ride was long, but I couldn't ask for a better friend, better broker, or more positive energy. I greatly appreciate all of your work and efforts to sell this property and bring the best possible price.
