We understand the importance of maintaining confidentiality, so information about your business is shared with potential buyers in stages as their level of interest heightens. Our brokerage firm does not disclose confidential information without a signed Confidentiality Agreement and a buyer application. We work toward a full disclosure with either an Offer to Purchase or a Letter of Intent to Purchase.
That’s not all! We use our numerous banking and financing contacts to assist the buyer and arrange favorable financing. This includes traditional financing, small business loans (SBA), or the use of non-traditional lenders. By doing this, we can also help minimize the amount of seller financing.
