“Could the business you buy help pay for its own purchase?”

Toronto · Zurich$1M-$500M12 yrs structured finance
The Real Question

Could the business you buy help pay for its own purchase?

You want to own a business that already makes money. But you don't want the purchase to cost you everything you have built:

Locking up all your capital
Every dollar in the deal is a dollar you can't reach
Wiping out your savings
No emergency cushion left after closing
Putting your house on the line
Your home becomes security for the business
A personal guarantee
Can feel like a lender's backdoor into your personal finances

Seller financing is one way this can work. The seller accepts part of the purchase price over time, and the business's future cash flow helps make those payments. Combined with suitable financing against its assets or other capital, this could reduce or, in some transactions, eliminate your personal cash contribution toward the purchase price.

This session explains how to assess whether that approach could work for you.

Built For A Specific Operator

Who this is for

Prospective business buyers

You want to own an established, profitable U.S. business, but not by putting all of your savings or your home into the purchase.

Still at the research stage

You don't need a business picked out. You want to understand where the money could come from and what is realistic before you start looking.

Operators ready to own

You want more control over your income, and you want to know whether you would be buying a business someone else could help run, or simply buying yourself another demanding job.

OCT 30 OR NOV 345 minutesSame session, two dates

We'll cover

These are two presentations of the same session. Choose the date that suits you. Bring your questions about what is realistic for your situation.

Where to find the right business: one that fits your experience and income goals.
Where the purchase money could come from: how seller financing, business assets and outside capital can work together, and what each provider expects in return.
Whether the numbers actually work: can the business cover operating expenses, financing payments and your income, with room for a difficult month?
What you could personally be risking: how to assess guarantees, ownership dilution and costs before committing.
How to tell whether you're buying a business someone else could help run, or simply buying yourself another demanding job.

Registration

Free. Choose your date and we'll send your private Zoom link straight away.

This is an educational session. It is not a financing approval, a lending commitment, or a guarantee that any business or buyer will qualify. Each seller, lender and investor makes its own decision.
