"How to buy a business and sell a business" - Vital question you need to ask yourself


Over the years of buying and selling businesses we have witnessed both "sides of the fence", the good and the bad.

As we have observed over the years business brokers are typically about the seller and not the buyer. The main reason, their commission! I know this because I have been doing this for over thirty years now and have seen many prospective business buyers and sellers make very costly all too costly mistakes.

Now that I am retired(but still active in the business brokers world), I have lots of time to reflect on all of the mishaps and pitfalls most people make when buying or selling a business.

When buying or selling a business there are some very important things to keep in mind such as:

- The business broker is looking for there commission PERIOD!

- Use ALL financial reports, statements, and tax returns from at least five years if not 10 years ago. This helps you determine economic trends for the business as well so you will be better prepared for what lies ahead should you buy a business.

- There are less buyers in the current economic state. This gives the buyer of the business a little more leverage.

- Understanding the reasons why a business owner is selling their business is also another great leverage point.

- Gathering all data and info of ACTUAL value of business assets, inventory, employees, payroll, marketing and advertising budgets as well. This will let the business buyer understand thoroughly and be prepared for what their estimated cost projections will be from month to month just to keep the business running.

- Always weigh your options for creative financing of business. You can usually work out exceptional deals with very flexible criteria.

- Always have your own team of lawyers and consultants ready to examine all documents before even drawing up a contract for purchase.

created, and red tape to go through and it can be very overwhelming.
