Tips for Working with A Business Broker
Brokerage is a mainstay of the business-for-sale marketplace. Brokerage is particularly common in the land surveyors commercial business-for-sale market, where aggressive selling strategies are the norm. But a good broker doesn't relieve your responsibility for contributing to the sale process. Like it or not, you are going to be an integral player in the sale of your land surveyors commercial business. To maximize your broker's potential, conduct periodic consultations throughout the process and deliver requested information as quickly as possible.
Timing the Market
Timing is everything when it comes to selling a land surveyors commercial business. Although the economy is generally struggling, low interest rates make land surveyors commercial businesses more attractive to entrepreneurs who want to get in the game. As the interest rates rise, it will be more difficult for buyers to make the numbers work in their favor. At Gaebler, we recognize the value of timing the sale of your land surveyors commercial business. But we think it's more important to properly position your business for current market conditions -- whatever they may be.
Leveraging Seller Concessions
Seller concessions are becoming more commonplace in business-for-sale transactions. By far, seller financing is the most sought-after concession, especially in the current economic environment. Traditional lenders and investors are gun shy - and that makes sellers a logical funding source for many buyers. If you are unwilling or unable to offer financing, be prepared to offer other types of concessions to close the deal.
