Buying a Business?
Commercial loans usually need a larger down payment than home loans. Terms depend on the lender, industry and your finances. I can refer you to lenders and help review the numbers before you make an offer.

What Sellers Ask Me Most
What is my business worth?
I review sales, profit (SDE/EBITDA), lease terms, equipment and industry averages. Two businesses with the same sales can have very different values because of the lease.
Will my staff and customers find out?
No. I market the business without its name and share details only with buyers who sign an NDA and show proof of funds.
Asset sale or share sale?
Taxes and liabilities are different. I work with your accountant to find the best structure for you.
Should I offer seller financing (VTB)?
For businesses that banks do not like to finance, a VTB can be the key to closing. I show you how to structure it safely.
How does the landlord approval work?
I check the assignment terms early and prepare the buyer package so the landlord can approve quickly.

I have worked in real estate since 2007. Over the years I have handled business sales – gas stations, liquor stores, restaurants, dry cleaners, salons and more – as well as commercial leases and investment properties.
Business deals are more complex than home sales. The financials, lease assignment, inventory, licences and financing all have to line up. With years of experience, I make every step clear and simple.
I am licensed in Alberta and British Columbia, and I serve clients in English and Korean.
