Seller Financing: One only has to attempt to finance a new business to understand its difficulty. That is why over ninety percent of business purchases are financed by the owners, which demonstrates their confidence in the business.

Instant Cash Flow: A big advantage in buying an ongoing business is that you, as the new owner, have an immediate cash flow. You don't have to build a business; you simply take over an existing business with the present owner's assistance.

Customer Base: You don't need to spend enormous amounts of money advertising for a customer base. You inherit a large loyal customer base.

Protecting Your New Business: Many times a new buyer may require a covenant of non-compete to ensure the old owner doesn't go in into business near by and solicit your customer base.

Confidentiality:Unlike the sale of real estate or franchises, the sale of an ongoing business is very confidential for both the seller and the perspective buyer. All inquiries and meetings are held in strict confidence.
