I became a broker because I knew I could do it better.

Rebecca Chatham · Principal Broker

I've been on your side of the table.

I built three businesses before I brokered one. A document destruction company, a landscaping company, and a cleaning company called Well Maid. I made payroll on hard months. I dealt with the landlords, the equipment loans, the employees who called in sick on the worst days. And I sold each one. I know what it feels like to hand something you spent years building to a stranger and hope for the best, because I've done it.

Before that, I spent eleven years as a Field Sales Leader at Allstate, advising agency owners on growing, valuing, and transitioning their businesses. That's where I got fluent in the financial mechanics of owner-operated companies: SDE, book value, what buyers actually look at, what lenders actually want. Years of those conversations before I ever brokered a deal.

I started RLC Business Brokers because I'd been through transactions myself, helped friends and family buy and sell, and worked with enough brokers to know I could do it better. More responsive. More honest. More of an advocate. I bond quickly with people and I'm not afraid to ask the hard questions, or to give you the answer you didn't want to hear.
