Common questions
Is my information kept confidential?
Yes. Buyers are screened and sign a nondisclosure agreement before they see details about your business.
Is your valuation an appraisal?
No. It is a broker's opinion of a likely price range for planning and marketing, not a certified appraisal. Final value is set by the market and the negotiated terms.
What does AI strategy mean for a small business?
Practical steps, such as automating scheduling, quotes, follow-up and bookkeeping, so the owner and staff spend less time on routine work. We start with the tasks that cost the most time.
How is a small business valued?
Most small businesses are valued as a multiple of the owner's yearly earnings, adjusted for industry, growth, risk and the lease or real estate. We show you a likely price range and what moves it.
How long does it take to sell a business?
Often 6 to 12 months from preparation to closing, depending on the business, the buyer's financing and the lease.
Can I buy a business with an SBA loan?
Yes. SBA 7(a) loans are common for business purchases, and qualified buyers may need about 10 percent down. We introduce you to SBA lenders early.
What happens to my lease when I sell the business?
Most leases need the landlord's consent to assign. We plan the lease assignment or a new lease early, so it does not delay closing.
