For The Buyer

• Business Identification and Pre-Qualification – We actively search on your behalf to identify businesses in specific sectors or industries that match your search criteria.
• Business Acquisition Negotiations – Often your acquisition target will have already engaged a business broker and having experienced representation on your side as well will level the playing field.
• Business Acquisition Financing – We have access to a variety of funding sources and may be able to help you obtain financing for your next acquisition.
• Documentation and Due Diligence – National Transaction Advisors will work with your legal and financial professionals to conduct sufficient due diligence, ensuring that all potential risks are identified and accounted for in the offer.
• Closing the Deal – Many people think that once the Letter of Intent (LOI) and/or Purchase Agreement is signed the deal is done, but our experience tells us that it is far from over at that point. That is really when the work begins. We will coordinate closing activities to ensure that all due diligence items have been addressed and the groundwork has been established for a smooth transfer of ownership.
