Exit or Transition?
Let's Talk.
We acquire stable, profitable small businesses and ensure a smooth, respectful transition for owners and employees while preserving your legacy.
Selling your business is a big decision. At Growthfare, we make it easier. We're not brokers or flippers — we're long-term owners who care about what you've built. We'll work with you to create a transition plan that works for your goals, your team, and your future.
What could a buyer pay for your business?
Most small businesses are bought with an SBA loan, so the price a buyer can pay depends on what a lender will finance. Enter two numbers and see the range.
Your numbers
Rough figures are fine. Nothing you type here is saved unless you choose to send it to us below.
What a buyer with an SBA loan could pay
Businesses like yours usually sell for 2.5–3.5× owner earnings, and a lender could finance the whole range.
- Buyer's loan at the top price
- $1.4M
- Yearly loan payment
- $225K
- Left after a manager and the loan
- $125K
- Your earnings as a share of revenue
- 18%
What moves the price up
Recurring or contract revenue, a manager or senior staff who already run the day to day, no single customer over 15% of sales, and clean books for the last three years.
How we worked this out
10% down, an SBA 7(a) loan at about 10% over 10 years, a $100K salary for someone to do your job, and the loan payment covered 1.25 times, which is what SBA lenders require. This is an estimate, not an offer.
