How we work
We understand what you need from a Business & Finance Broker. It isn’t just about finding a buyer, or that dream business; it’s much more than that. You need a Business & Finance Broker who will be there with you, at each twist and turn of the journey, for the expected but more importantly, the unexpected. Most of our clients haven’t done any of this before; it’s their first time. That means you need the right advice, at the right time.

Reputation is driven by you
It has been a pleasure working with Rukhsana, her customer service was impeccable and she made the process quite seamless. She understood what I needed and was happy to give solid advice so that I was able to make an informed decision. I would highly recommend her.
In February 2025, the sale was successfully completed to the satisfaction of all parties. I cannot recommend HS enough, their expertise, efficiency, and exceptional client service set them apart. A special mention must go to Katie, her dedication, professionalism, and unwavering commitment made all the difference.
A great service was provided by Katie. She was very tenacious and on the case to ensure all partners, including myself, kept on going to completion!
Hilton Smythe provided a very professional service. Extremely patient with all the questions we had and extremely helpful.
Great team who were easy to work with, they demonstrated good open lines of communication and worked hard to ensure a smooth transition was achieved.
Hilton Smythe made the selling of our business a seamless process from beginning to end. Their staff were friendly, and proficient throughout, and our thanks to Katie who was always there to help with any query, and went the extra mile!
