Business Purchase Kentucky

For the serious businessman or businesswoman, though - the entrepreneur in the truest form of the word - some little side business isn't going to be enough. You're going to have to run a full time, productive, legitimate business, and often the best way to do that is to buy one that's already proven itself in the business world. The only problem with business acquisition of this kind, of course, is that it requires business purchase financing - in other words, businesses are expensive and business financing is never easy.

2. An Overview of Business Financing

The ideal solution, of course, would be to simply buy the business upfront with a wad of cash or a nice big check. The problem is that there are almost never ideal situations, especially if you’re a small business owner. Chances are you don’t have the cash on hand to afford to pay for the business you want to buy right up front – if you do, there’s you are one financial step ahead of many people looking to start a business.

Your only fallback option is business financing, which covers everything from bank loans to venture capital to seller equity, all of which we’ll be covering over the next few pages, so pay attention. Remember, this is just an overview piece, designed to give you a crucial first step on the road to financial success working under yourself as your own employer – if you really want to be successful in your new field and get the best possible deal on your business purchase financing, you’re going to have to do a whole lot of research on your own and, hopefully, get the best out of a varied and highly competitive market. Let’s start by looking at the basics.

3. Personal Equity in Business Purchase Financing

In any business acquisition of any size, personal equity will pay a vital role, so knowing what personal equity is in regard to business purchase financing is of course a vital first step in your new business acquisition. Personal equity is, simply put, the amount of money you can put up towards your new company yourself. As we said earlier, the ideal situation would be to simply pay for all of it – then you avoid the messy loans and paperwork that will follow the initial deal. As we also said earlier, there are almost no ideal situations, and you’re almost certainly going to need to get some other source of financing.

However, all of those other sources of financing are going to require you to take a fair bit of the burden – usually between 25% and 50% - on your own shoulders while they take some or all of the rest on theirs. It makes good business sense, as, after all, who would invest in a business where the person buying it isn’t willing to put in some money of his or her own? So you might as well take it for granted right up front – you’re definitely going to need a fair bit of money to buy your new business, especially if it’s a large one. Make sure you have some on hand and make sure you can afford to lose it in the event of a catastrophe.

4. Seller Equity in Business Purchase Financing

The second step which is a main one in many business acquisition deals is that of seller equity. This may seem a bit odd at first glance, but in reality is a very important factor to consider and, if you think about it, not all that different from so many other businesses. Seller equity is where the seller takes up a portion of the cost himself as a loan to the buyer in order to make it more certain that the deal goes through. The buyer than pays back the seller’s investment (at interest, of course) as the newly bought business begins to make money and produce profits for the new buyer.

If you think of this carefully, this is not a system unique to the world of business purchase financing. If you buy a car, for instance, or a large television set, you may get a “monthly payment” plan. If you think about it, that is exactly the same as the seller equity system in business financing; instead of a payment of cash to the seller, you give the seller a note of debt. That way you don’t have to pay everything right up front, and the seller makes more in the long run. Many loan companies may require seller equity as part of the deal, especially if you as the buyer can’t afford to front a large amount of buyer equity yourself.
