Have you been thinking about selling your company? Or you’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit and are finally ready to buy a new business?

While it’s exciting to think about the future, we understand what you’re going through. It can be stressful to make such important decisions when you have more questions than answers. Our expert advisors are uniquely qualified to help because they have first-hand experience personally buying and selling their own commercial real estate in Northern Colorado.

It can be daunting. Think about this. If you were faced with a dangerous mine field that you had to cross, would you rather attempt it on your own and brave the potential dangers alone or would you rather have someone who had already crossed that mine field take you by the hand and show you where to step and where not to step?

Because our business sale advisors have already successfully navigated through that mine field themselves, you can be assured that you’ll have only the best on your side. Our advisory services will assist you with:

• A business competitive valuation
• A financial review of the opportunity
• A historical sales trends analysis
• Exit strategies
• Recommendations for tax planning specialists for your business

We’d love to take your hand and help you through this experience. To discover more about business opportunities that might be right for you, please contact us.
