For Owners & Brokers

What you can expect working with us

Selling a business you built is personal. Here is how we work with owners, how our buying process runs from first conversation to ownership, and how we finance the deal.

Our Commitments

How we work with owners

How we work with every owner who reaches out, whether or not a transaction ever happens.

Confidentiality First

Every conversation and submission is treated as strictly confidential. We do not contact your employees, customers, or competitors without your permission.

Operator's Perspective

We evaluate your business the way an operator would — understanding your people, processes, and equipment, not just your financial statements.

Continuity for Your Team

We aim to preserve what already works: your employees, your customer relationships, and the reputation you spent years building.

Our Buying Process

From first conversation to ownership

A disciplined, two-phase process: first getting the right deal under LOI, then getting that deal to close.

Phase 1:

Getting the right
deal under LOI

  1. Origination

    Find the opportunity.

  2. Vetting

    Is this worth pursuing?

  3. Valuation

    What is it actually worth?

  4. Seller Dynamics

    What matters to them?

  5. Negotiation

    Can the deal work for both sides?

  6. LOI

    Put the right deal on paper.

Phase 2:

Getting the deal
to close

  1. Diligence

    Verify the business.

  2. Financing

    Match the right capital.

  3. Structure

    Build the transaction correctly.

  4. Legal

    Paper the deal.

  5. Closing

    Coordinate the final pieces.

  6. Ownership

    Take control of the business.

Financing

How we finance acquisitions

We acquire businesses using a combination of an equity injection, SBA financing, and seller financing.

Equity Injection

Buyer capital invested directly into the transaction at close.

SBA Financing

SBA-backed acquisition financing through an established lender.

Seller Financing

A seller note that keeps both sides aligned through the transition.

Proof of funds with every LOI

Once we have reviewed the business and financials, we are happy to provide proof of funds with any LOI we submit to demonstrate our ability to finance the transaction.

Brokers & Intermediaries

Working with advisors

We welcome hearing from business brokers, M&A advisors, and other intermediaries representing sellers in North Carolina's engineering and manufacturing sectors.

  • We move efficiently and communicate directly
  • We respect the confidentiality your clients expect
  • We give a clear yes or no rather than leaving deals open-ended
  • Proprietary and off-market opportunities are welcome
