In the world of Small Business a lot of business owners are eventually going to consider selling their business. Once they make this decision, the next thought is where do I go for help? Many are surprised to find that their Realtor they have known for a long time can't help them.
Realtors are wonderful people but most don't know much about selling a business. A Realtor is a member of the National Association of Realtors and can only use that term Realtor if they are a member of NAR. In most cases, they deal with real estate not the on going business. Some Small Businesses want to sell the land, building and business. In these cases, a Realtor may be able to help.
But in most cases, when you want to sell a business, it is best to go to a Business Broker. It is possible for a Business Broker to be both a Realtor and a Business Broker but this is usually not the case.
Many Business Brokers are Licensed Real Estate Brokers but not members of the National Association of Realtors. These types of Brokers understand how to sell a business and understand the actual real estate offering as well. This is the case with our company. We are a Licensed Real Estate Broker and an experienced Business Broker.
