I'm looking to buy one established business and run it myself. Not a fund, not a roll-up, not a broker shopping your business to someone else — one buyer, paying cash, who intends to keep your team and your name intact.
I'm buying one business, not building a portfolio of them. That means I can be specific about what fits — and quick to tell you when something doesn't.
Most buyers at this size are waiting on a bank. A few are funds who'll fold your business into something larger. I'm neither.
This purchase is funded and set aside. No financing contingency, no SBA approval timeline, no deal collapsing three months in because an underwriter changed their mind.
I'm not buying a business to strip it down or merge it into something else. The people who run it are the reason it works, and I need them more than they need me.
My background is corporate banking and credit risk — I've structured commercial facilities up to $56M and underwritten hundreds of businesses. Diligence moves fast because I know what I'm looking at.
A straightforward path from first conversation to a completed transition. I'm searching full-time, so you won't be waiting on me.
We start by listening — to how you built the business, what matters to you about its future, and what you're hoping happens next. If it isn't a fit, I'll tell you quickly.
I'll look at the business as it actually runs today. No lengthy diligence theater — just the questions that matter to a fair offer, asked once.
We agree on timing and your role going forward. I'd ask you to stay on long enough to hand over properly — and I'm open to seller financing if you'd rather stay invested in how it goes.
I'm not interested in stripping a business down. I want to build on what already works.
If you've built a business you're proud of and you're starting to consider your options — or you're a broker with something that fits — I'd welcome an unhurried conversation. No obligation, no pressure, and a straight answer either way.
