VR Miami/Coral Gables Buying Process
Your commitment to purchase a business at price and terms consistent with the marketplace.
You sign an agreement promising to maintain confidentiality for all the information provided to you on the business we discuss.
You provide us with information about yourself, such as a resume and financial statement. The more we know about you, the more likely we can find a business you will like. The more information we promise to the seller, the better the terms he will consider.
Together we discuss and review various types of businesses and select some that appeal to you.
We show you the businesses you are interested in and discuss the important factors of each.
A meeting between you, the seller and us may take place. This gives you the chance to ask questions you may have about how the business operates and to describe your qualifications to the seller.
You write, with our assistance, an offer or letter of intent for the business you like.
- Earnest money is required to demonstrate your seriousness to the seller.
- Most offers are contingent upon your inspection of the books and records of the business. The offer is not binding until you remove all contingencies.
We present your offer to the seller.
We give the seller your background, financial information, experience and point of view in arriving at the offering price, terms and conditions. Favorable background information about you will result in favorable consideration of your offer.
We carefully explain the terms and conditions of the offer to the seller and decision makers.
The seller accepts the offer as it is written or writes a counter offer.
When buyer and seller agree to all terms and conditions of the sale, the offer becomes a Purchase and Sale Agreement.
You meet with the seller to examine the financial records. Any questions you have are resolved at this time.
You remove all contingencies in the Agreement. It is now a binding agreement.
We work with the landlord to get an assignment of the current lease or a new lease for you.
We provide all documents to the transferring agent or lawyer so they can prepare the closing papers.
In most states and provinces the lawyer performs a lien search on the business to identify any secured creditors.
We make arrangements to assign any notes or equipment leases.
Arrangements are made for you and the seller to count the price the inventory (if required).
All parties meet to sign documents.
