Questions owners ask first

Yes. We only use what you tell us to understand your situation, we do not contact your employees, customers or vendors, and we do not share your name or business details with anyone unless you ask us to. See our privacy page for how the form data is handled.

Nothing. The intake form and first conversation are free and carry no obligation.

We are an advisory and introduction service. We are not a licensed real estate brokerage, law firm or CPA firm. Virginia does not license business brokers for business-only sales, but anything involving real estate needs a licensed real estate broker, and contracts should be drafted by a lawyer. See the guide linked in the footer.

Starting is free. If you later want an introduction to a buyer or a licensed professional, we will tell you in writing, before it happens, whether we could receive a referral fee or have our own interest in buying. You decide whether to go ahead.

Possibly. If that is ever the case, we will say so in writing before any price is discussed, and you can choose to work with someone else instead.

Owner-operated businesses, typically with a few hundred thousand to a few million dollars in revenue. If you are outside that range, tell us anyway and we will say honestly whether we can help.

Service companies, contractors, marine and boat businesses, restaurants, retail, professional practices, distribution and light manufacturing across Virginia Beach.

No. The first conversation is about goals and timing. We will tell you what to gather.

Typically many months. In 2025 the median small business in the Virginia Beach-Norfolk market spent 262 days on the market (BizBuySell), and that is before closing.

Good, that is when preparation pays off most. Many owners use a conversation with us to plan the next twelve to twenty-four months.

Our focus is Virginia Beach. If your business is in nearby Hampton Roads cities, ask and we will tell you honestly if we can help.
