We Understand the Importance of Confidentiality

Confidentiality is crucial - we get it! We know how important it is to keep business plans, especially the sale of a business, confidential until the deal is done. When we take your business to market for sale or growth strategies we only provide information in controlled, measured segments as needed to qualify the potential buyer(s). All interested buyer(s) are thoroughly vetted by our team and we only reveal more specifics about your particular business, once the buyer has signed and returned an NDA agreement (Non-Disclosure Agreement). This ensures confidentiality and control of the deal until it is completed. This agreement legally prevents the buyer and anyone else involved in the sale from discussing the specifics of the sale until it is a closed and final transaction.

Private Funding Solutions to get the Tough Deals Done

As veterans in the industry we are also aligned with multiple private funding groups and high net worth individuals (HNWIs). As the rules of typical commercial funding have become more difficult over the years it is becoming more and more common to see good deals fall apart due to a lack of funding. The private funding groups we work with have more in-depth knowledge of business and are typically able to provide funding for more than half of the deals that tradition commercial lenders would turn down. With both national and global connections, we maintain a market leading access to potential partners and buyers. If your business may not look as good on paper as it does in reality, there's a good chance we can still get your buyer financed!

Business Valuations and Appraisals

Business owners can significantly over or undervalue their business. If you're considering selling your business, your first step is to determine the value of your business. We'll use the most accurate historical sales data and proven techniques including; asset approach, market approach and income approach, to determine the value of your business, which makes for a much smoother and more relaxed selling experience. Our valuation and appraisal methods are recognized as the proper standard in the industry, and can withstand scrutiny from any buyer's advisors. If you are considering taking your business to market, let's take the first step and determine the value of your business. As part of forward planning, any business should be aware of their market value in order to make the decisions necessary for the future.
