How do I find out more about a business for sale?

If you want further information about a business for sale you must contact the seller or the seller’s representative (an agent, broker or intermediary) directly via the site.

The information visible on the business-for-sale advert is all the information BusinessesForSale.com has on the business in question. We are not a broker or an intermediary. We are an advertising medium, like a newspaper or directory, but on the web.

So to find out more about a business for sale please contact the seller by completing the ‘Contact this seller’ form at the foot of the listing.

Please note: the seller may then request more information from you before disclosing further information about their business.

They may also ask you to sign a confidentiality agreement. Also called a non-disclosure agreement, this protects the seller against the risk of confidential information, such as financial records, falling into the wrong hands – i.e. the press or competitors.
