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?
