FAQs about selling a business on the Gold Coast
How can I sell a business on the Gold Coast?
You can use a business broker to sell your business on the Gold Coast. We will guide you through the entire process, helping you find the best price for your business and sell it as quickly as possible.
Can you provide business valuations?
Yes, we can provide valuations for your business. We look at your business’s sales to provide a valuation while also considering local market value and how similar businesses have sold on the Gold Coast. Our valuations also provide guidance that can help you increase the business’s value. For more information, get in touch with a business valuer on the Gold Coast to see what your business is worth.
How long does it take to sell a business on the Gold Coast?
A business can take six to twelve months to sell on the Gold Coast. The time it takes varies depending on factors like the amount of interested buyers, due diligence, and any other required preparation. When we sell your business, we keep you updated after every step and offer an estimated timeframe you can follow.
How do you find buyers for my business?
Like other business brokers, we have a database of potential buyers we can use to find buyers for your business. But we take this one step further and make sure we find as many buyers as possible, using networking events and our understanding of the local market to point buyers in the direction of your business. We will also ask you for any connections or previous clients you have who might be interested in buying the business.
What information should I share with potential buyers?
You can share as much information with potential buyers as you would like, but we advise caution to all of our clients. We think it’s best only to share the legal documents a potential buyer needs to see, like intellectual property registrations, licences, permits, and notes of incorporation. If you are worried about sensitive information, you can ask potential buyers to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) to protect your company’s data.
Can I change my mind and stop the sale of my business?
Yes, you can stop the sale of your business. This must be done before you and the seller sign the contract, as we cannot cancel the sale after this point. We understand that your circumstances can change and will do everything we can to support you.
How do you maintain confidentiality throughout the process?
Using NDAs is the best way to protect your privacy and data while selling your business. You should also consider updating your policies and systems at work to protect your data. We store any data securely, too, so you don’t need to worry about anything.
