Many business owners don't know that waste textiles businesses are still a hot commodity, to the extent that sellers have properly prepared them for the marketplace.

Working with Appraisers

Next to your broker, a skilled appraiser is the person most capable of adding value to the price of your waste textiles business. Armed with a professional appraisal, both you and your broker can enter the negotiation stage with confidence. Following the appraisal, you may choose to delay your sale until you can increase the value of assets and revenue.

What to Expect in a Waste Textiles Business Sale

It's impossible to predict the emotional highs and lows you will experience during the sale of your waste textiles business. The emotions of a sale are complicated by the fact that it may take time to locate the right buyer and the final sale price may be less than you think your waste textiles business is worth. Although it isn't easy, you can mitigate the emotional impact of a waste textiles business sale by setting realistic expectations before you list your business.

Leveraging Seller Concessions

Seller concessions are becoming more commonplace in business-for-sale transactions. By far, seller financing is the most sought-after concession, especially in the current economic environment. Capital is scarce, causing new entrepreneurs to rely on sellers to finance at least part of the purchase price. If you are unwilling or unable to offer financing, be prepared to offer other types of concessions to close the deal.
