[LAWYER REVIEW] Parts of this page are waiting for a US lawyer's sign-off. They are marked below. Details in square brackets are placeholders.
This is an educational estimate, not an appraisal. RetireFromTrades gives an illustrative range based on what you told us and on general market information. It is not a formal business valuation or appraisal, and it is not an offer to buy your business. We are not a business broker, M&A adviser, CPA, lawyer or financial adviser, and nothing here is legal, tax, accounting or investment advice. Real offers depend on your actual financial records, buyer diligence, deal terms and market conditions, and can be higher or lower than this range. Before you make any decision, talk to a licensed professional. If you ask, we can introduce you to an independent licensed business broker; we do not broker, negotiate or take part in any sale.
Illustrative, not an appraisal
Your estimate comes from the numbers you typed in and general assumptions about how trade businesses are valued. Nobody has looked at your books, your contracts or your market. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a price.
Until a trade's multiples have been checked against verified sold-deal data, every page that shows them labels them as illustrative.
Not financial, tax or legal advice
Nothing on this site is financial, investment, tax, accounting or legal advice. Before you make decisions about selling your business, talk to qualified professionals who know your situation.
Broker introductions
We are not a business broker, investment adviser, appraiser, accountant or law firm. We don't list businesses for sale, negotiate deals, hold money or take part in any sale. If you ask us to, we introduce you to an independent, licensed business broker. Any work you do with that broker is between you and them.
[LAWYER REVIEW] If a written referral-fee agreement is signed, add the referral fee disclosure from SPEC.md section 12 here and next to the opt-in, after counsel clears it state by state.
