Practical guide

A smarter starting point for buyers.

A directory can help you discover opportunities; the next step is disciplined evaluation.

Before you make an offer

Define your target, understand the business model, review available financial information, investigate operations and identify what you still need to verify.

Simple checklist

• Why is the business being sold?

• What exactly is included?

• How does revenue depend on key customers?

• What contracts, staff or leases transfer?

• Which claims require independent verification?

Due diligence mindset

Treat listings as starting points, not guarantees. Ask for appropriate records, validate important information and obtain professional advice where the transaction requires it.
