Why Use a Business Broker?

• Maximizing exposure to sell your business - business brokers have access to an extensive buyer audience as well as many active buyers seeking to purchase a business today. A business broker may already have the perfect buyer for your business.

• Selling can be confusing - selling your business requires an in-depth review of your buyer, signed documents, and legal processes to be completed along the way.

• Experience counts - business brokers sell businesses for a living. When selling your business, you want to ensure you are earning the top dollar from the deal, but also maintaining a smooth transition throughout the process. Let our experience guide the selling process for you.

Prepare for a Valuation

Very little time will be required on your end. Here's what an FNBC broker will need to complete your no-cost valuation:

​

• The most recent three years' tax returns. The most recent year is the most important.
• An interim profit and loss statement.
