Confidential representation from the first conversation through to closing.
Selling a business is not like selling a house. The value sits in the earnings, the lease and the transferability — and the whole thing has to be done quietly, because the day staff, the landlord or competitors find out, the business starts to lose value.
One broker handles it. The same person who prices the business writes the memorandum, screens the buyers, runs the negotiation and attends the closing. You are never passed to a colleague who has to be brought up to speed on your own business.
Confidentiality is the whole job. Buyers see a blind profile first — industry, general location, revenue range — and sign a confidentiality agreement before anything identifying is released. Staff, customers and the landlord find out when you decide.
What lenders look for in an acquisition file, and how to structure a deal that clears underwriting instead of collapsing in diligence.
Operational and financial preparation in the year or two before a sale, so the business is ready when you are.
We network with qualified intermediaries nationwide, giving local, regional and national reach on both sides.
No cost to start. The first conversation and the opinion of value carry no fee and no obligation; commission is payable only at closing.
Start with a confidential opinion of value. If the number is lower than you hoped, we will tell you what is holding it down and what would change it.
