Performance Brokerage Services, the leader in dealership buy-sell activity, announces the sale of Gregg Young Chevrolet in Marshalltown, Iowa, from Gregg Young Automotive Group to Alan Reuber and Matthew Barrows.

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Performance Brokerage Services, North America’s highest volume dealership brokerage firm, is pleased to announce the sale of Gregg Young Chevrolet in Marshalltown, Iowa, from Gregg Young Automotive Group to Alan Reuber and Matthew Barrows.

Gregg Young entered automotive retail in 2000 with the purchase of a Chevrolet dealership in Omaha, Nebraska, launching what would become Gregg Young Automotive Group. Over the years, the organization has expanded throughout Nebraska, Iowa, and Wisconsin and now operates 11 locations representing Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, GMC, Ford, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, and Toyota. The group has worked with Performance Brokerage Services on several occasions, including the 2018 acquisition of Jeff Henry Chevrolet in Plattsmouth, Nebraska, and again on the recent sale of Gregg Young Chevrolet of Plattsmouth in September 2026.

“When you sell a dealership with your name on the building, the transaction is personal,” shared Gregg Young, President of Gregg Young Automotive Group. “You care about your employees, your customers, and the community you’ve served. You want to know the people guiding the sale understand what you’ve built and why it matters. That is why I continue to put my trust in Paul Kechnie, Matt Willis, and Performance Brokerage Services. We’ve completed several transactions together over the years, and our relationship has grown into a friendship I truly value. Paul, Matt, and their team know our organization, understand our expectations, and take that trust seriously every time we work together.”

Gregg continued, “The sale of Gregg Young Chevrolet in Marshalltown, Iowa, was another example of their commitment. Paul and Matt brought experience, sound judgment, and a steady hand to the process. I appreciate their willingness to have honest conversations, work through the details, and stay focused on getting the deal across the finish line. It was a pleasure to see Alan Reuber and Matthew Barrows acquire the dealership, and I’m excited to watch them build their next chapter as Marshalltown Chevrolet. Bringing experienced, enthusiastic buyers together with a seller who cares about the future of the store is something Performance Brokerage Services does exceptionally well. To Paul, Matt, and the entire Performance Brokerage Services team, thank you for another successful transaction and for the friendship behind it. You’ve earned our confidence through your actions, deal after deal, and I look forward to continuing that relationship.”

Over the last 5 years, Performance Brokerage Services has advised on the sale of nearly 450 dealerships, making it the highest volume dealership brokerage firm in North America. Paul Kechnie, Matt Willis, and Jamie Farley, the Texas & Midwest Partners of Performance Brokerage Services, were the exclusive sell-side advisors for this transaction.

Upon the closing, Matt Willis commented, “Closing another dealership transaction in my home state of Iowa is always special. Continuing to lead the state in dealership transaction volume is a tremendous honor, and I take great pride in the relationships and trust we’ve built within the Iowa dealer community. These are people I know, respect, and care about, which makes every closing personal. Our Midwest and Texas Team are proud to represent Gregg Young in the sale of Gregg Young Chevrolet in Marshalltown. Gregg and his executive team have become longtime friends and trusted partners through our many buy-sell transactions together. They run an exceptional organization, and we deeply appreciate the confidence they continue to place in Performance Brokerage Services. Earning their business again is something we never take for granted.”

Matt added, “Finding a buyer like Alan Reuber, alongside his partner Matthew Barrows, made this transaction especially rewarding. Alan brings a wealth of dealership experience, a longstanding relationship with Performance Brokerage Services, and real enthusiasm for this opportunity. We’re thrilled to see them carry this store forward as Marshalltown Chevrolet and build on its strong foundation. For me, this is what makes the buy-sell business so fulfilling: helping friends accomplish their goals, bringing good people together, and seeing a dealership begin its next chapter with owners who are excited about its future. Thank you to Gregg and his team, Alan and Matthew, and everyone who helped bring this closing together. I’m proud of what we accomplished and grateful for the relationships that made it possible.”

After previously exiting dealership ownership, Alan Reuber is returning to the automotive retail industry with the acquisition of Gregg Young Chevrolet of Marshalltown, alongside business partner and co-owner Matthew Barrows.

Commenting on the transaction, Alan Reuber remarked, “Having owned more than 15 dealerships throughout my automotive career, I’ve learned that the people involved in a transaction matter every bit as much as the opportunity itself. Our acquisition of Gregg Young Chevrolet in Marshalltown, Iowa, reinforced why I hold Performance Brokerage Services in such high regard. I’ve enjoyed a longstanding friendship and business relationship with Moshe and Jason Stopnitzky. They are first-class, stand-up individuals whose word means something. They have built a first-class business and surrounded themselves with partners who share their integrity, work ethic, and commitment to people. That says a great deal about their leadership. Matt Willis and Paul Kechnie exemplify those qualities. Although Performance Brokerage Services represented the seller, I always appreciated Matt and Paul’s honesty, professionalism, and dedication to bringing the transaction together. They understood how much this acquisition meant to us and helped keep everyone working toward a successful closing. That kind of approach earns your respect and makes you want to do business together again. My partner, Matthew Barrows, and I are thrilled to begin this next chapter as Marshalltown Chevrolet. This is our second acquisition together, and we couldn’t be happier with how it came together or more excited about what lies ahead in Marshalltown. To Matt, Paul, and the entire Performance Brokerage Services team, thank you. After many years in this business, I deeply value relationships built on trust and mutual respect. I’m grateful for ours and look forward to many more opportunities together.”

Gregg Young Chevrolet of Marshalltown will be renamed Marshalltown Chevrolet and will remain at its current location.
