Experience with intermediaries and business brokers

What has your experience been so far when it comes to searching deals via intermediaries (corporate finance boutiques, business brokers..)?

Is having relationships with several business brokers worth the time?

Have you found more fruitful building a proprietary deal flow pipeline?

I'd love to know your thoughts!

Fernando, hope this helps. During my search, I tried both ways. Because I was very specific on the industry, working with brokers was the best. Be mindful that maybe as you start, you will want to see all the deals, but since time is a constraint, the more specific you can be with your broker the better.
