Christina Lazuric, an Orange County Business Broker shares her views with BizBen.com blog readers on understanding seller discretionary earnings when buying or selling a small business for sale.
Financing a business purchase, or getting cash for a down payment can take many forms. Hopefully the options listed below will give you some ideas where you can find the money to buy a California business!
Most potential business buyers think that they have seen everything that there is to see when looking to buy a California small business. A great strategy overlooked is to go back and review mature business for sale listings. Business broker Christina Lazuric explains why in her latest blog...
A potential small business owner/seller asks the question: I have a preschool and am thinking about selling it but my lease is ending soon. What would be the best thing to do? Do I renew the contract or do I act the landlord to sign a contract to the new buyer? and is it a good time to sell?
The likelihood of selling a business is often determined by external factors in the marketplace. Here are eight influences on how easy, or difficult it might be when selling a small business. Peter Siegel discusses these factors in a BizBen.com article.
One of the strategies for selling your business to a very cautious buyer is to relate the price to performance of the company in the months after the buyer takes over. Peter Siegel with BizBen.com explains this strategy.
Don't buy a laundry business before reading these 5 tips to maximize your investment. You'll soon be able to buy a laundry with confidence! Peter Siegel, MBA with BizBen.com discusses this topic.
The three most widely used sources of funds for financing business purchase assets are buyer's cash, seller financing, and SBA bank loans. Peter Siegel, MBA with BizBen.com and an SBA loan consultant & placement specialist explains the differences between them.
As a business broker, one of the most difficult parts of my job is dealing with landlords. Orange County is synonymous for unscrupulous landlords, and complicated, one sided leases. Christina Lazuric an Orange County Business Broker discusses dealing with landlords.
Since 2011 we have completed an additional 850+ transactions and in total since 1996 when I founded Restaurant Realty Company, we have completed over $1,000,000,000 (billion) of business and real estate transactions.
The following list is broken down as follows. Stage 1 -- Items you need to do before you sign a purchase contract. Stage 2 -- Items you need to complete after you sign a purchase contract, and Stage 3 -- Items you need to do in order to close escrow.
I have found over the years that the biggest obstacle in getting a deal done is the landlord. The landlord either makes the sale and/or lease of the business possible or prevents the transaction from moving forward.
