Common Questions

Selling a Business in Houston: What Owners Ask

How is my business valued?
Most small businesses sell based on a multiple of Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) — your net profit plus your salary, one-time expenses, and owner benefits. Multiples typically range from 2.0× to 4.0× depending on industry, growth, lease quality, and owner dependency.
How long does it take to sell a business?
The average small business takes four to twelve months from listing to close. Well-prepared businesses with clean financials and a reasonable price expectation move faster. SBA loan financing adds 60 to 90 days.
Will my employees and customers find out?
Not if the process is handled correctly. Confidentiality is standard practice. We use blind profiles, NDAs before sharing financials, and strategic disclosure only when a buyer is qualified and serious.
