Most sellers agree that “Getting full value for their business to fund retirement or other business interests” was their top goal in the transition of the business, yet most haven’t had a formal valuation conducted in the last three years, and the majority have never had their financial statements audited. You should make efforts to be knowledgeable and aware in advance.
This is a personal choice. There is no requirement that you do or you don’t.
Brokers are extremely helpful in the process. They can educate and assist in the transaction.
In return you as the seller will pay a fee contingent upon the successful sale.
