Martin Smith thought he was buying an established business with good credit and collectable accounts receivable. The day after settlement the surprises began.
Inventory could not be used because expiration dates had past. Money shown as receivable had already been collected. Vendors that were only willing to ship COD. Over $100,000 of real problems that should have been detected during the business purchase process popped up and almost shut Martin down.
Can you afford to be surprised? Of course not.
You have the power to not end up like Martin.
Owning your own business is part of the American Dream. Buying a business has many advantages over starting one from scratch if you know how. Be prepared and get all the benefits of buying an existing business.
