Frequently Asked Questions
What types of Elgin businesses do you work with?
Elgin's Fox River corridor has a long manufacturing history, and much of what we see reflects it — machine shops, fabricators, contractors and mechanical trades, plus established retail and service businesses in Kane and Cook counties.
My financials are messy. Can I still sell?
Yes, but clean them up first — it is the highest-return work you can do before listing. Buyers and SBA lenders underwrite from tax returns and financial statements, and every hour they spend reconstructing your numbers is an hour they spend doubting them. We prepare an Owner's Benefit statement that recasts personal and one-time expenses so your true cash flow is visible.
How involved will I be during the sale?
Less than most owners expect. Your job is to keep the business running and profitable; we handle marketing, buyer screening, questions, and negotiation, and bring you in when a qualified buyer needs answers only you can give. Owners who let the business slip during the sale usually pay for it at closing.
