Sellers

A transfer of ownership will occur sometimes in the life of any business. The founder may sell because they are retiring or wish to start new projects. Sellers want to pass ownership to other family members, including children. Owners sometimes sell to an employee or group of employees. However, most of the time a business is sold to a complete stranger.

Business Realty will help sellers with answers to the following questions:

• How do I value and price my business?
• How do I find a qualified buyer?
• How do I protect my confidential information?
• What will be the tax consequences?
• What do I tell employees?
• What steps are involved in the Sell of my business?
• How much will I spend on professional fees?
• Does anyone know the steps I should take?

..............................................................................

Business Realty will assist you with every step. Here is what we do for you:

• We meet you face to face.
• We present our planned process to you.
• We want to get to know you, what are your goals and what will make you happy.
• We want you to get to know us.
• We tell you about other sales we have been part of.
• We sign a Letter of Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure in your favor before we begin.
• We will ask for your last three years tax returns and/or compilation of profit/loss.
• We determine, in our opinion, the market value of your company.

This is accomplished through careful analysis of your financial and operational statements and the re-casting of the balance sheet and P&L statements to reflect the real amount of monies the seller benefits from ownership. This enables us to put a value on the business from a variety of "rules of thumb" reflecting asset value and cash flow expectations to the seller and for the potential buyers. We showcase your business to potential buyers. We market your company through the preparation of a Blind Profile of your company. This profile gives potential buyers enough information about your business opportunity to determine is there a potential "fit". Before we reveal any information about the name, location or financial details, each potential buyer will sign a Letter of Confidentiality and Non-Discloser Statement. This process works toward an offer from a potential buyer.
