Steve Mueller
Midway Business Brokerage
Serving Ocean County, NJ
Steve Muller and Mutty Tress partnered up as founders of Midway Business Brokerage. We meet the seller and buyer mid-way to ensure a smooth sale. Combined, we have years of experience and many successful deals completed. We take a personal and analytical approach. Before working on the sale, we sit down with the seller to evaluate their business. Then, we match the seller with a list of vetted buyers to begin the process. All our buyers are required to sign an NDA and provide proof of funds. Discretion is important to us, just like it’s important to you. That’s why many businesses have trusted us to be the mid-way point between them and the buyer.
