Brokers ask personal and financial questions to evaluate if a potential Buyer is well-matched and qualified to purchase the business they are inquiring about. Your Broker will (politely) ask questions about employment and entrepreneurial experience, about your finances and net worth, and questions to gauge your level of interest in the business. The Broker will use this information to determine whether or not you may be a good fit for the business, or just as importantly, spot potential issues to completing the purchase before you invest substantial time or money. Accurate information is necessary for Business Brokers to effectively do their jobs, but rest assured that all personal and financial information is kept strictly confidential.
