A business valuation is the process of determining the economic value of a business. It can support a sale, acquisition, financing, lease negotiation, strategic plan, or ownership transition by creating a more informed view of value and the factors behind it.

CREBB considers appropriate income, market, and asset-based perspectives together with financial performance, market conditions, growth potential, industry context, and business-specific risk. The purpose of the valuation determines the information and methods required.

The current CREBB live website describes a typical range of two to four weeks from the initial consultation through delivery, depending on complexity, purpose, and the availability of complete information.

A broker can help prepare and position the company, protect confidentiality, market to qualified buyers, manage information flow, coordinate negotiations, and keep specialists aligned while the owner continues running the business.

The process begins with the owner’s goals and the company’s current readiness. Work may include cleaning up financial presentation, documenting operations, identifying value drivers and risks, organizing legal and compliance information, and building a realistic go-to-market plan.

Seller financing can expand the buyer pool and influence structure, price, risk, and timing, but it is not appropriate in every situation. CREBB helps owners evaluate the tradeoffs with their legal, tax, and financial advisors.

CREBB combines targeted marketing, industry and relationship outreach, listing exposure where appropriate, and qualification. The right buyer must satisfy more than price: financial capacity, experience, terms, timing, credibility, and transition fit all matter.

Yes. Understanding business performance, cash flow, capital needs, and growth can improve lease, purchase, sale, expansion, and site decisions. CREBB’s connected business and real estate perspective is designed for that overlap.
