Brokerage
Our goal is to provide effective and confidential assistance in the sale and transfer of any business, with or without real estate, and regardless of the size and complexity of the transaction. Petroleum Capital & Real Estate LLC is a brokerage company that is focused primarily in the petroleum, convenience store, and automotive industries.
Every member of the PetroCapRE team is an experienced professional dedicated to helping clients achieve their personal and business objectives. We have experience in all types of business opportunities, from the sale of a single business only dealer operated retail unit to the successful marketing and selling of a petroleum distributorship. PetroCapRE maintains an extensive database of experienced and qualified buyers and sellers and is a member of most of the national and regional petroleum and convenience store trade associations.
Our team of experienced professionals understands the importance of making sure employees, competitors and other parties remain unaware that a business is for sale. Therefore, maintaining confidentiality is of the utmost importance during all phases of the business sale process.
Once an owner has decided to explore the possibility of selling a business, our team begins the process of determining its value. The business valuation process involves analyzing historical financial information such as business tax returns, balance sheets and profit and loss statements. Since most business owners and their accountants customarily prepare the company's tax returns and other financial statements with the objective of minimizing taxable income, our professionals will work closely with the seller to unlock the hidden cash flow of the business. The process of identifying the true discretionary cash flow of the business is the key to maximizing its market value. After the financial analysis is completed, we provide the client with a range of potential market values for the business. However, the client will make the final decision as to the business asking price.
As soon as a sale price has been determined and brokerage agreement executed, our staff will prepare a comprehensive sales brochure, initiate a promotional and advertising program, field all inquiries and questions from potential buyers, review offers with the client and most importantly, handle or assist the client's legal counsel in all the complex negotiations required to close the sale.
Our professional business brokerage services also include:
- Negotiating with landlords for lease assignments, extensions, etc.
- Helping buyers secure financing
- Writing business plans
- Securing third party approvals
- Franchise applications and approvals
- Preparing letters of intent
- Anything needed to ensure a smooth business sale closing
