Bio
Randall has been a commercial real estate broker for over 10 years, all with The Martin Group. He holds real estate licenses in Indiana and Kentucky and has an exclusively commercial practice. He has secured over 45 transactions with a sales volume of over $25 million. He specializes in Office & Industrial properties and business brokerage.
Forster takes the title of ?Advisor? seriously. With over 100 years of combined commercial real estate experience within the Martin Group office, we are the team you want working for you. As a ?Top Ten? commercial real estate company, the SVN brand provides additional access to extensive market data, and experts in every sector and segment of the market. The SVN/Martin Group promises to put our clients? interests first. They do so by immediately marketing your property to the entire brokerage and investment community (nearly 100,000), and they promise to split commissions 50/50 with other brokers.
Forster?s completed transactions include an assisted living facility that sold at full asking price and closed within 45 days of listing. He was also hired by a competing broker to sell a challenging student housing complex which the owner (a commercial broker) had tried to sell for 2 years. Randall sold the property to a New York based buyer at near full price. In the mergers & acquisitions arena, Forster brokered the sale of a medical testing lab to a large medical services provider. This acquisition gave the new owner immediate and seamless entry into a business segment that they had been considering for some time. Other medical related M&A transactions include a medical supplies & equipment distributor, an in-home elder care business, and a 58-unit assisted living facility ($5MM).
Forster began his business brokerage and M&A career in 1998 when he launched R.O. Forster & Associates, a firm that he continues to operate. Commercial real estate and business brokerage often go hand-in-hand; however, an important consideration in business brokerage is how to market something that you do not want anyone to know about. Forster will provide the confidentiality required to sell your business without jeopardizing your business in the process. Forster?s expertise lies in the small to mid-market size businesses ($200,000 to $20MM). He is an advisor to business owners regarding preparing their business for future sale, valuations for partnership transfers, and business planning purposes. Randall can also be a valued advisor for your next business acquisition.
Previously, Forster was the Marketing Manager of the Retail Division of North American Green; and, prior to that he held a sales/marketing position with Procter & Gamble for 22 years. He comes from a family of small business owners and understands the concerns and challenges of business management and owners.
