If I'm looking to bring on a few minority investors on a deal, what's a typical equity investment valuation? For example, if I'm buying a $2M company, financing through SBA for 80%, seller financing 10%, and looking for $100K outside equity investment to go alongside my own $100K equity, would you typically value the $100K outside investment as a % of the purchase price, meaning 5% in this case? What kinds of factors would cause adjustments in that equity valuation?
