What is a Business Broker

Business brokers, assist buyers and sellers of privately held small businesses in the buying and selling process.

The selling process generally follows the following steps: We...

1. Estimate the value of the business - a no charge service
2. Complete a Business Listing Agreement with the Seller.
3. Advertise the business for sale without disclosing its identity
4. Handle all buyer inquiries and require ALL inquirers to complete a Confidentiality Agreement BEFORE ANY information is disclosed about the business.
5. Handle qualified potential buyer interviews, discussions, and negotiations;
6. Aid the buyer in the due diligence investigation.
7. Can suggest financing options for the buyer - (if required)
8. Help the buyer secure approval from the landlord - (if applicable)
9. Complete the necessary documentation for making an Offer To Purchase the Business and generally assist with the business sale in preparation for lawyer review.
10. Support the Buyer & Seller, on the possession date, in the final “Walk around”. This would include checking inventory & equipment operation if applicable.

This is a very simplistic overview of the process. The reality is the process is complex and can be time consuming.
