The ABC’s of Buying a Business
The process of acquiring a business can be quite intimidating for the first time Buyer, and even experienced Buyers can become frustrated at times. Using the services of a professional Business Broker can result in a much smoother transaction, and should result in the acquisition of a business that the Buyer feels comfortable operating and proud to own.
As transaction Brokers, we provide the following services:
-
Confidentiality
In order to review the operational and financial workings of a business for sale, the Buyer must be prepared to share personal financial information that indicate to the Seller that the Buyer has the ability to make the purchase. We treat this information in a confidential manner.
-
Financing
We work with the Buyer, and the Seller, to put together a funding package that works best for both parties. This often involves Seller financing.
-
Search
Our industry association memberships and contacts enable us to provide a wide variety of businesses for sale, and we work with the Buyer to focus on selected targets.
-
Valuation
An extensive database of sold businesses provides much needed information about the value of a business. We also know what questions to ask, and where to look for the “hidden” details.
-
Purchase Offer
We assist the Buyer in the preparation of a reasonable offer, and provide guidance during the due diligence phase. We work closely with the Buyer’s advisors (accountant, attorney, banker, etc.).
