A business broker is a licensed professional who represents buyers or sellers in business transactions, typically earning a commission. Traditional business brokers manage valuations, negotiations, and guide parties through the full transaction process. RPBX is different—we’re a business marketplace that connects business owners directly with investors, without acting as brokers. We provide the platform and tools for you to manage your own transactions, saving on traditional brokerage fees.
A confidential information memorandum (CIM) is a detailed document that provides comprehensive information about a business for sale. The CIM typically includes financial statements, business operations, market analysis, growth opportunities, and other key data that potential buyers need to evaluate the business. This document is essential in mergers and acquisitions transactions.
RPBX offers a direct marketplace alternative to traditional business brokers. Instead of paying commission fees to brokers, our platform connects business owners directly with investors in Texas including Houston, Austin, and throughout the region. You maintain control of your transaction, set your own terms, and pay a flat membership fee instead of percentage-based commissions. For those who prefer traditional representation, you can still work with independent brokers while using our platform to increase visibility.
Seller financing is when the business seller provides financing to the buyer instead of the buyer obtaining traditional bank financing. The buyer makes payments to the seller over time, typically with interest. This arrangement can make businesses more attractive to buyers and help sellers close deals faster. Seller financing often involves a seller’s note documenting the terms of the financing agreement.
An asset purchase (asset deal) is when the buyer purchases specific assets and liabilities of a business, while a stock purchase (stock deal) involves buying the ownership shares of the company itself. Asset vs stock purchase decisions affect tax implications, liability transfer, and transaction structure. Consult with your legal advisor or CPA to help determine which is best for your situation.
To sell your business quickly, start by getting a professional business valuation, prepare a comprehensive confidential information memorandum (CIM), list your business on marketplace platforms like RPBX to reach qualified investors directly, consider offering seller financing, and maintain competitive pricing. Proper preparation and realistic pricing are key to selling your business fast.
RPBX is a leading business marketplace for finding businesses for sale near you. Our platform features small businesses for sale, internet businesses, franchise opportunities, and more across Texas. You can search by location, industry, and other criteria to find businesses for sale that match your investment goals—connecting directly with business owners.
Selling a business has significant tax implications including capital gains tax considerations. The tax treatment differs between asset deals and stock deals. Tax on selling a business depends on factors like deal structure, holding period, and entity type. We recommend consulting with a CPA or tax advisor to understand the specific taxes when selling a business and optimize your tax strategy.
