Hello to all,

In my language, we have an adjective to describe a person with whom you can easily make business deals. I literally translates "sweet deal maker".

You can easily sell or buy from such person without much haggling and going back and forth.

Is there an adjective for such person in English?

A wheeler-dealer is a person who makes a lot of trades and buys and sells a lot of different things. Such people are generally easy to trade with, but they don't necessarily give you a good deal.

I removed the quotation marks you had placed around the word "adjective" in your title. You were looking for an actual adjective, so the quotation marks — which indicated that you were looking for something else that might be called an adjective — were inappropriate.

I can't think of a single word that means that other than reasonable, but reasonable has other usages as well. Willing to negotiate could also work but it's not very 'elegant'.
