Hi everyone. This is my first post - happy to be part of the community! I'm trying to learn a little more about how people use business brokers as part of their search. Do you have relationships with specific brokers? How do you find brokers? If you're using them, what is the most important part when it comes to identifying a broker that's going to be helpful for your search?

It's very valuable to have connections with someone in the area where you are looking to make a purchase or sell and I recommend working with one when you are making a purchase or sell. Because they're business is to know the market, that's what they spend their time learning. They also have the tools to effectively evaluate a business and help you make a wise decision in your purchase as well as tools to prepare the sell of a business so you can get the most out of it. If you have an interest in taking a look at the Seattle, WA area, I have a relationship with multiple brokers I could introduce you to.
