Our office prides itself in the qualification of both sellers and buyers. We feel that the businesses we represent in our portfolio are a reflection of the integrity of this office and we do not list businesses that don’t meet the expectations of our market. We also do not list businesses that are in financial trouble. When we list a business, we list it at the fair market price for that industry. We will not inflate a price based on “what the business could be doing” because we feel that if a business had that potential, then the current owner would take steps to capture it.

Selling a business can be a lengthy process for the business owner. Our reputation and our marketing abilities typically generate many interested parties for a particular business and we try our best to limit both the buyer’s and the seller’s valuable time by ensuring that businesses are a good fit.

Our professional attitude toward a business sale dictates that we have a buyer qualification process in place. While you may be able to send an email to a competitor and receive back a sizeable amount of information about the business in question, we choose a different process at VR and we are repeatedly congratulated on this process by prospective buyers. While some might see this as an imposition, it actually saves a great amount of time and prevents potential proprietary business information from being disseminated to too large of a group. Ask yourself this, “If I were a seller instead of a buyer, how would I want my information handled?” We’re sure you’ll agree how important our process is because one day you’ll be that seller as well.
