How It Works

The process is simple. You make the introduction, and we handle the rest. We will get a signed agreement between you and Brentwood Growth that explains the payment of the fee and keep you informed as to the progress.

From introduction it can take several weeks to have the calls with the seller, get the financials, complete the valuation and get the listing agreement signed. From there, it usually takes 6-9 months to get the business sold. We will communicate with you regularly on the progress of the transaction.

This is a great way to build a pipeline of additional income and truly help people realize their lifetime dream of selling their business and move to the next chapter of their life.
