ABOUT US
CASEY SALZ
MANAGING PARTNER
BIO
I have been in the retail auto business for over 40 years. I started selling cars out of high school and ultimately became the owner of a Ford dealership in the greater Puget Sound area.
I chose to use a brokerage firm for the sale of my own dealership and ultimately accepted a job offer to go to work with them. After several years I decided to start my own company. My combined retail and broker experience allows me to work with my clients in a unique way. I approach the sale process from the dealer view and understand what it is like to sell a lifelong business.
My wife, Sandy, and I are proud parents of five children and have 4 grandchildren. We currently split our time between the Puget Sound area and Southern California.
MICHAEL CAPANYOLA
MANAGING PARTNER
I have 36+ years of successful leadership guiding commercial banking clients focused specifically in the automotive, RV and marine industries. I spent my first 15 years with Ford Motor Credit Company and just recently retired from US Bank, Dealer Commercial Services after 21 years. I have a thorough understanding of commercial credit, treasury management including a specific expertise in wholesale floorplan, commercial real estate and credit lending including cash flow and capital asset lending, mortgage, construction and acquisition loan programs. During my tenure I have been involved in numerous Automotive, RV and Marine acquisitions and in this aggressive consolidating industry had an opportunity to join my good friend, Casey Salz, at C and S Northwest.
My Commercial Banking background and passionate client advocacy provide a unique understanding from a Lenders perspective. This experience will add value and depth to C and S Northwest complimenting Casey’s vast automotive retail background.
I have lived in the Northwest for the past 26 years and am very fortunate to have my son, beautiful daughter in law and two wonderful grandchildren that live less than 2 miles from me. I currently split my time between Western, WA and Central, WA area.
