What do you need to discuss a listing range?

A recent P&L or tax return, a sense of owner add-backs, and the basics of your lease or real estate. We do not quote a generic multiple on a first call. The range depends on transferable cash flow and buyer demand for your specific business.

Will I have to stay involved after the sale?

Most buyers want a short transition for introductions and training—often 30 to 90 days. Longer consulting or an earn-out is a deal term, not a requirement. We help you decide what you are willing to do before you go to market.
