VR has sold more businesses in the world than anyone.®
- Confidentiality – Most sellers do not want anyone to know their business is for sale. Our methodology creates qualified buyers and protects those sellers whose business could be impacted should their customers, employees, suppliers or competitors learn their business is for sale.
- Advertising & Marketing – Businesses are marketed with the utmost professionalism through our Web site, vrbb.com, which showcases VR represented businesses to millions of buyers nationally and internationally. VR businesses can also be found on the top independent “business for sale” Web sites. Additional buyers are attracted from local and regional advertising along with our VR Buyer Alert Program.
- Professionalism – VR manages the details of the transaction, freeing you to operate your business without distraction. When you work with VR, you can rest assured that your business transfer is being handled professionally and competently.
- Matching buyers’ interests, goals and desires with the right businesses for sale.
- Providing access to a wide inventory of businesses for sale.
- Structuring the transaction through closing.
- Your trusted VR Intermediary will work with your CPA or tax attorney in structuring the transaction appropriately.
- Working with numerous companies specializing in all forms of business financing, your VR intermediary usually has several options available to you the qualified buyer. This critical step in the sales transaction is expedited since VR has required a completed Buyer Profile early in the process as part of our Valued Representation.
