Why are businesses sold?
Contrary to what many people believe, businesses aren’t sold just because they are losing money. There are very legitimate reasons why a business owner might want to sell. Some of these are:
- Worrisome exposure to business risks often aggravated by personal guarantee loans.
- Tired of, or bored with the business.
- Possible failure of the business if one or more owners become seriously ill or disabled.
- Personal preference of the owners to retire or simply change their lifestyle.
- Divorce or dissolution of partnership.
- Owner’s desire to pursue other business interests which may be more challenging or less stressful.
- Lack of sufficient working capital.
- A need within the company for new skills, new resources, or a new philosophy to cope with ever changing economic forces, government regulations and competition.
Worldwide, businesses change hands every 5 years on average.
