Selling Guide

We specialize in the confidential sale of businesses from Orlando to Miami and Palm Beach to Tampa. Our customized presentations highlight your business's strengths and future potential to achieve the most attractive price and terms. We prepare a detailed Professional Confidential Memo and have your business SBA lender prequalified before it goes to market. Buyers must prequalify by providing a Bio and Financial information to receive the business's name and location.

5 Steps to Selling Your Business

Valuation

  • Based on “Adjusted Net Income” (Positive Cash Flow), assets, and inventory.

  • Real Estate may be added and included or made an option if owned by the seller.

  • The Adjusted Net Income includes Net Income Plus Owners Salary, Depreciation, Amortization, Non-Recurring Expenses, and other Non-Business Expenses.

  • The multiple of Adjusted Net Income used to value the business depends on the type and size of the business.
