I have worked with Christies across Scotland traditionally now on a number of hospitality aquastions over the last number of years.

Simon was a great help in our most recent deal and helped us from enquiry to purchase. Looking forward to continue to work together over the years.

As a solicitor who has worked with Jon Booth and Tom Young at Christie & Co on countless pharmacy sales and acquisitions over many years, I can confidently say they are outstanding in their field.

They have an in-depth understanding of the pharmacy market and the commercial and regulatory issues that arise in these transactions. Their preparation, deal management, and pragmatic approach consistently help transactions progress efficiently, even where complexities arise.

Tom and Jon are professional, responsive, and collaborative, making them a pleasure to work with from a legal perspective. They communicate clearly, manage clients’ expectations well, and are adept at keeping deals on track to completion.

I would highly recommend Tom Young and Jon Booth of Christie & Co to anyone involved in pharmacy sales or acquisitions. They are trusted advisers and consistently deliver a high standard of service.

As a high profile business, we were looking for a sale confidentially, and we were confident that Christies has a large enough database of potential buyers that it could be achieved. The leasehold for the Queens Hotel was marketed at £400,000 and Tom O’Malley from Christies was quick to present interested parties, both local buyers and national groups. The end result meant we achieved a price of £350,000 and the sale itself was smooth and hassle-free.

I sold my hotel after a family bereavement, which was a very difficult time for myself. I had meetings with many different agents but felt comfortable with Tom O’Malley at Christie & Co as he understood my business and the current market conditions. This was invaluable and the sale happened swiftly and with no problems. From the first viewing to completion it was 7 months. I would not hesitate in recommending Christie & Co, and should I have another business I would not hesitate to use them again.

Christie & Co came to visit us when we were considering going to market, and we immediately knew they understood the wedding business, and the fact that Highfield was not just a hotel, but was a perfect place for weddings and would look for buyers in the wedding business who would be able to take Highfield to the next level and make it the ideal first choice for a wedding venue in the area.
They found a perfect match and we are very happy to have sold to a great wedding specialist who will continue our dream, and all our upcoming wedding couples will still have their perfect day at Highfield.

“We had used another company previously to market our hotel, they promised lots but delivered little. Tom O’Malley of Christie & Co handled the sale of our hotel in 2016-17, I would like to thank him for his hard work, he was fantastic in dealing with the buyers, he looked after us all the way through and after the sale. I would be happy to recommend Tom and Christie & Co.

Mark Worley supported us on our sales journey and was knowledgeable, trustworthy, honest, approachable and communicated with us clearly through the sales process. I would not hesitate to work with Christie & Co again and can highly recommend them.

They found several well qualified buyers for my individual B&B, and within 12 months I had over a dozen serious viewings, 4 offers and a completed sale. They are, however, quite expensive and I handled all viewings and queries. But I wanted to sell, and I sold, so the value for money is really secondary.

Selling a hospitality business is a huge challenge and patience is the key as there are many potential buyers in this market with dubious motives which can lead to much frustration all round. Tom O'Malley at Christies battled away for us and eventually found a buyer whose intention was to actually proceed and not string us along.
The lesson is to ensure that buyers do really have the means and desire to proceed at an early stage and agree exclusivity where possible.

I have known Jonathan for some years and have dealt with him on several projects. He is professional, easy to deal with, and consistently on the ball. His proactive approach and clear communication make the process straightforward from start to finish.

Jon Patrick took control of the sale from start to finish and managed to navigate tricky situations with great diplomacy

Received great help and service from Sam Roberts with buying of the hotel. He responded very quickly to my enquiries and with information that I requested from him.

He kept both sides pushing to complete on the matter and finish the deal in a successful buy.

Ive done several deals now with chad and I have to say he is extremely professional , curtious and knowledgeable, I can highly recommend him if your in the market to buy or lease a hotel
10/10

‘We appointed Rob & Simon at Christie & Co to act for Lilian Faithfull in the sale of two of our care homes. It was imperative that the sales were kept confidential whilst ensuring we achieved best price for the charity and they delivered just that. Their knowledge and contacts in the sector are far reaching, ensuring the right buyers were targeted and the deals were managed effectively. Rob & Simon were always on hand to provide advice and guide us through what was a time consuming and stressful process. They are consummate professionals and we would have no hesitation in recommending them.’

Christie and Co provided the most professional service we could have hoped for.
Jon Booth especially wrapped an arm arm around us to see us through the process and his constant attention to keep all parties engaged and on track allowed completion to proceed expediently.
