Preparing to Sell Your Business

We start with a preliminary, no-obligation, confidential meeting at our office or the Seller’s facility. General info is exchanged, and we can become acquainted with each other. Broker and Seller must have good chemistry, feel comfortable and trust one another so we can go forward. A business valuation is then preformed to provide Seller with a “price range” of value. The Seller will provide:

• Two to Three years of Corporate Tax Returns, and a current P&l.
• List of furniture, fixtures, equipment, inventory, vehicles and any other assets that will transfer.
• Copy of the Lease or Property Ownership.  
• A business info sheet is completed that answers many items that will effect the selling process.

Finally, VR Business Brokers in Sarasota, Florida and the Seller enter into a Exclusive Right To Sell Agreement, which gives VR Business Brokers the right to market the company. The Broker and Seller develop a marketing plan, and discuss how Buyers will be handled, and reasonable expectations to complete the job.
