Q: Do you recommend using an escrow company?
An escrow company should be used for all transactions with the exception of those closings handled by the buyer’s lender. Using a third party to handle escrowing buyer funds and conducting the close protects both buyer and seller. When using an escrow company the seller knows they will receive funds upon transferring the business over to the buyer and the buyer knows upon the transfer of funds they will receive ownership to the business they are purchasing.
Q: How long is due diligence?
The due diligence process usually takes from 2 to 4 weeks. The amount of effort and detail involved in the buyer’s review is driven by the complexity of the business and the dollar amount of the transaction.
