Frequently Asked Questions ​

  • What are the next steps in terms of advisory & process

    Your next step is simple: sign an NDA to unlock confidential details and begin your buyer journey. Fill out the NDA Request form or contact your advisor to receive the NDA and personalized guidance through every stage of the process.

  • Who will I be working with during this process?

    You will work directly with our Primary Listing Advisor, Sarah Mitchell, who will guide you through every stage. If additional expertise is needed, our Senior Advisor, John Carter, will also be available to support your transaction.

  • What Does “Open” Mean in Our Listings?

    When you see “Open*” as the asking price on a listing, it means we have not set a specific list price for that business. Instead, our team has thoroughly reviewed current market value ranges with the seller and, in most cases, completed a “pre-flight” with one or more lenders.   Sellers have a clear expectation of value, but “Open” signals their willingness to review and consider all reasonable offers. We encourage buyers to conduct their own market research and submit offers. This approach fosters flexibility and creates opportunities for buyers and sellers to find the best fit.

  • What information is required to receive full details?

    To access the full details of this opportunity, we require basic information about your buyer criteria and a signed non-disclosure agreement (NDA). Please review our NDA form for specifics, but in short, providing your acquisition interests and completing the NDA are the key steps.

  • How is confidentiality maintained?

    Confidentiality is a top priority throughout our process. We do not sell or share your information with third parties. For more details on how we protect your privacy, please see our privacy policy.

  • What is the typical timeline for a transaction?

    For most buyers, the typical timeline to close a transaction is 30 to 90 days after an offer has been accepted. This period includes due diligence, financing arrangements, and finalizing the purchase agreement.
