How long does it take to sell a business?

The typical timeline is 6 to 12 months, depending on the industry, asking price, business financials, and market conditions. Well-prepared businesses with clean books and strong cash flow tend to sell faster.

What is my business worth?

Business value is determined through multiple methodologies including income-based (capitalization of earnings, discounted cash flow), market-based (comparable transactions), and asset-based approaches. We provide a detailed valuation report tailored to your specific business.

How do you maintain confidentiality during a sale?

We use blind profiles, require NDAs from all prospective buyers before sharing detailed information, and control information flow throughout the process. Your employees, customers, and competitors never learn about the sale until you are ready.

What are the typical fees for business brokerage services?

Fees vary based on the size and complexity of the transaction. Most engagements include a success-based commission. We provide a transparent fee structure during our initial consultation with no hidden costs.

Do I need a business broker to sell my business?

While not required, a professional broker typically achieves 20-30% higher sale prices, maintains confidentiality, qualifies buyers properly, and manages the complex legal and financial process allowing you to focus on running your business during the sale.

What types of businesses do you represent?

We represent a wide range of businesses across industries including restaurants, retail, professional services, manufacturing, distribution, healthcare, technology, and franchise operations throughout Florida.

How is a franchise different from buying an existing business?

Franchises come with a proven system, training, and brand recognition, but require franchise fees and ongoing royalties. An independent business offers more freedom but requires building systems from scratch. We help you evaluate which path aligns with your goals.
