How Seller Financing Works in Buying Businesses

Many sellers are trapped in their businesses and cannot exit because they don't have enough cash for retirement and lack a transition plan. Seller financing, where a buyer pays back the seller from the profits of the business, is a common solution to this problem. This method is used in more than 60% of all businesses deals. In buying businesses, you don't actually need to have $100,000 or more to buy a $100,000 business, thanks to the future profits of the seller. Over 70% of these sellers do not have a transition plan for the next generation to take over or bring in somebody else. With 10-12 billion small businesses for sale, there are not enough buyers. A buyer is constantly in charge when there is a lot of supply and not a lot of demand. This is a great solution for sellers and buyers who want to exit or invest in businesses with limited cash.
