Customer Reviews

“We recently had the good fortune to work with David Aldridge and Kevin Ainsworth when it came time to retire and sell our unique property and business. We’d put it off for a while, not knowing how or where to find a good agent with both real estate and business sales marketing experience. David and Kevin came highly recommended by a friend, who himself was a highly successful real estate agent in the Portland area, and knew they would be able to handle the sale and marketing of a business as well.

From the very beginning we were extremely pleased with Kevin and David’s attention to all the many details of our beautiful 20 acre property, which included not just a house, but a historical barn, many out buildings, beautiful old trees, a creek, animals, and a very successful camp for dogs the Double Dog Ranch. It would have been a challenge to any agent.

Our business was very important to us and we worked tirelessly developing it into one of the most popular dog boarding businesses in Oregon. The listing David and Kevin created generated many responses from
people all over the country.

For anyone looking for very personable, accomplished, honest and result-oriented agents, we can very highly recommend Kevin Ainsworth and David Aldridge, and we believe that no agents exist that are better qualified and easier to work with.”

Lorinda Gay & Samuel Sevier, Unique Property and Business

“Aldridge and Associates found a qualified buyer for my business and were there for me the entire way from initial offer to the closing. They did all the detail work and made it easy for me to sell.”

Ben Kingsley

“Just a quick note of appreciation on the way the recent selling of my business was handled. Although we did suffer some setbacks, your perseverance and professionalism saw us through and everything was concluded to everyone’s satisfaction. I would heartily recommend you to any business operator contemplating a sale of their business. Again, thank you for your assistance.”

Jim Flaherty

“Aldridge and Associates handled the sale of our business, Press Time Printing in a very professional, ethical, expedient manner. They were there for us from start to finish, brought us a qualified buyer, and helped us get through a couple of hurdles to the close. Aldridge and Associates also got a higher price for our business than we had originally asked for by developing a value based listing kit which was very impressive.

I am very pleased about the results and would highly recommend their services.”

Marty Rowe, Press Time Printing

“I wanted to thank you for selling my business. I believe Powell Street Laundry is a solid business with potential for growth, but I also understand that the spendy lease was a significant hurdle for potential buyers. Thanks to your persistence and setting the asking price at a strategic point, we got our sought sale price. Because of your familiarity with the coin-op laundry industry, the entire sales process required minimal involvement on my part. Thanks for the good experience.”

Gary McWhorter, Powell Street Laundry
