Sunbelt has been in the business of selling businesses for over 25 years. Sunbelt Brokers are well-trained professionals who are aware of your needs.

Whether you are ready to sell your business now or are just beginning to consider selling, call our office for a confidential, no cost consultation.               Why Sunbelt?    Knowledge & Experience Setting a price, advertising, negotiating with a prospective buyer, and a sea of legal and financial details need to be addressed. Also, most accounting in a privately held company is done to minimize tax obligations and may not portray the company in the best light; we deal with this problem every day. Your Sunbelt Broker will help you in Recasting or Normalizing your financial information to capture the true Seller's Discretionary Earnings. This allows you to show the business's true earning capacity and allows you to maximize the value of your business. Confidentiality Sunbelt can market your business without employees, customers or competitors knowing that it is for sale. This is important to the smooth transition of the business during the selling process. Unlike the sale of real estate or franchises, the sale of an ongoing business is very confidential for both the seller and the prospective buyer. All inquiries and discussions are held in strict confidence. We screen all buyers to determine their financial capabilities. Because we work with each potential buyer in finding the right business for his or her needs, the prospects we bring to you are genuinely interested in your business. Only a small percentage of people who inquire about a particular business eventually purchase a business of that type. While this can be maddening if you try to sell your business alone, it's a tremendous opportunity if you are working with Sunbelt Business Brokers. Since we receive dozens of inquiries each day, the fact that your business is listed with Sunbelt increases the likelihood of finding a buyer early in the selling process. Time Sunbelt can save you time and frustration when in comes to selling your business. We're the business experts who can guide you through every aspect of the selling process - from arriving at a fair market price to handling financial arrangements and closing the transaction. We are good at what we do. That's why so many of our clients come back to Sunbelt Business Brokers. Negotiations Determining the right price, of course, is crucial. We'll arrive at a fair market price that you can feel good about, because we know the prices of similar types of businesses in your area, in addition to trends at work in the market. We handle negotiations in a clean, patient, professional manner that keeps the business issues clearly in focus, rather than clouded by emotions of personalities. Sunbelt Brokers is skilled at turning the inevitable issues brought by attorney's, accountants, land lords, buyers and sellers into creative solutions that work for you.
