"After being business brokers for over 20 years, I really
got angry at what I saw in our industry. It rarely, if
ever, happens to our due diligence clients, but I remember
buyers who were cheated. I heard stories first hand of how
some sellers lied openly and even produced fraudulent
documents in order to entice an unsuspecting buyer into
purchasing their worthless or worth less business. Then I
was sick to find that the listing broker passed on known
false information to buyers as if it was factual. The
unsuspecting buyer then relied on this information to make
their wrong business decisions. Then, if they were not
experienced enough to catch these fraudulent reports, they
spent their life savings and home equity on a worthless
business. This caused economic damage from which many
families never recovered. Some lost their homes, others had
their wives divorce them, and in a few cases suicide
resulted or family abandonment. To compound the problem,
sometimes these cheated buyers decided that they will get
even with the world for their mistake by cheating
their
future buyers in the exact manner in which they were
cheated. This is clearly not what should be occurring, and
does not need to happen to you!

would think about buying a house without a home inspection
report and a termite report.
Why would anyone buy any business without having the same
thing?
A business review is like a home inspection. Everything
is checked inside and out. This is where our firm comes
in."
