TIME-FRAME FOR SELLING MY BUSINESS?

The short answer is that it really depends on the size and type of the business, but the average time to sell a company is six to twelve months. This is due to the many steps involved in selling a business including, packaging the business for sale, finding and qualifying buyers, contracts, the due diligence process, and the closing process.

IS MY LEASED BUSINESS PROPERTY TRANSFERABLE?

Ensuring that the lease is transferable to the buyer of a business is very important for a deal to go through. Most leases have a section that defines the tenant’s right to transfer the lease.

I OWN THE PROPERTY OF MY COMPANY, IS THAT INCLUDED IN THE SALE?

When a business owner owns the property where the business is located, the property can be sold with the business or sold separately. Typically the seller will sell the property with the business, with the value of the property included in the sale.

SHOULD I TELL OTHERS THAT I AM SELLING?

When selling a company, confidentiality is absolutely important. There are many reasons why a business owner should never tell employees, vendors, and customers. Doing so will hurt business dramatically, ultimately lowering value and price for your business.

 

OUR ADVANTAGE

MY BUSINESS HAS DEBT/OWES MONEY, WHAT DO I DO?

When purchasing a business, the business is almost always debt free. No buyer wants to purchase a company that is full of debt which they will assume when they become the new owner. Thus, the seller is obligated to payoff the debt at closing.
