Due Diligence

Due Diligence is the time when the Buyer gets to see "Books and Records" of the business. A business seller will only give this information to a prospective buyer once an offer has been made so they know that the Buyer is serious and qualified. Much like the Buyer tour, any Due Diligence that needs to be done on site must be done after hours. Much of the Due Diligence can be done offsite, for example, at the Business Broker's office.

Even though the business is "under contract" the offer and the sale must still be kept confidential.

Things you can check during Due Diligence:

Income tax records of the business.

Sales tax records of the business.

Payroll records of the business.

Revenue, Profits, Losses, usually for the past 3-5 years.

Check equipment to make sure it all works.

Count inventory (a final check will be done right before closing.)
