I'm attempting to acquire a small business. The broker provided a short CIM that gives some information but not much. The broker is requesting an LOI before allowing meetings with the seller. I'm wondering: 1) How typical is this? 2) Meeting the seller seems critical to understanding the business, the seller's motives, and, most importantly, giving a credible valuation range for the offer. How have others bridged this gap?
