What to Consider When Contemplating Buying Business?

By
Mortgage and Lending with Commercial Capital Ltd.

 



When buying a business you want to make sure the business is cash flowing (after all the write offs), that the last 3 years of tax returns shows gross sales have either stayed the same or gone up, and lastly the value of the business is what the seller thinks it is worth.  Many sellers over value their business.  If the buyer is not going to get a SBA loan, than I recommend before buying a business to get a business valuation done. If their is real estate involved also get a commercial appraisal done. Have an attorney that represents your best interest not the sellers best interest.  Never take anyones word the value of a business.  I can not tell you how many stories I have heard where the buyer took the sellers word for the value of the business and found out after the fact it was not true.

Karen,

 

Tax returns (if they are the real ones and not fake copies) and a detailed sources and uses of funds statement are my starting place in evaluating a business.
