Selling or Buying a Business

Local Knowledge, National Reach, Your Advantage

Edensilk is part of a network of professional business brokers with offices throughout Western Australia and other States. We employ knowledge, expertise, integrity and leading-edge technology to deliver fast and accurate outcomes that are the envy of the business broking profession.

For The Buyer ... finding the business that's right for you

Buying a business is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make. There's also every chance that it will be one of the largest transactions you will ever negotiate in your lifetime. The financial stakes are extremely high and the difference between a good and a bad sale is counted in tens of thousands of dollars.

From your first meeting with an Edensilk broker you will see our approach is different from any other business broker. You'll find our selected business listings are of a higher quality, and therefore reflect a lower risk, than those of other brokers. We achieve this by carefully targeting pre-selected business types and then enter all relevant financial data from these businesses into our exclusive pre-appraisal computer program which helps to provide an accurate business price based on previous successful sales.

Edensilk assists people from out-of-state and overseas, as well as local buyers, to secure a business which meets their specific needs and expectations as to:

• Low Owner Involvement (everything from 40 hours a week hands-on to businesses run entirely under management)
• High Gross Profit Percentage
• Low Staff Numbers
• Low Overheads
• Key Market Sector (wholesale, retail, service, manufacturing, hospitality, professional, transport)
• Location (Perth, southwest of Western Australia, and interstate) and any other parameters that are important to you
• Recession Proof Products, and much more.

We specialise in the sale of privately owned businesses with annual revenues between $500,000 and $40 million, and we have a database of hundreds of businesses for sale.

But even if the ideal business for you isn't currently on the market, an Edensilk Business Broker can still help. Using Personalised Business Search ® we can access the details of over 300,000 businesses. We know who owns what, and who may be willing to sell, and will undertake a marketing campaign to find a willing seller whose business has the attributes you seek.

If you are interested in a ‘Personalised Business Search’ contact us now on 08 9271 7661.

For The Seller ... a fast, confidential and accurate business sale

If you're selling a business, or considering it - whether you're in retail, wholesale, manufacturing or service – an Edensilk Business Broker can provide you with an accurate appraisal of its worth, based on our expert knowledge and access to data on businesses similar to yours which have sold in the same market.

When you do make the decision to sell, our Online Agent Network means your Edensilk broker is able to sell businesses in a fraction of the time it usually takes, with complete confidentiality.
We provide:

• Assistance in compiling details of your business through a detailed step-by-step questionnaire
• A comprehensive full colour business report presenting your business professionally in over 40 pages of detail
• All the documentation required to complete the sale (generated by exclusive automated computer software) that has been checked to comply with all applicable laws.

Local Knowledge > National Reach > Your Advantage

Because of our access to an exclusive national online business broker network, combining knowledge of local markets with one of the largest databases of potential buyers and sellers in Australia, many businesses are sold within two weeks of entering the market.

For sellers, combining our broker’s local knowledge with the immense power of the network means you're not dealing with an impersonal big city firm which doesn't understand your business. Rather, you've got someone who has been highly trained to deal with buyer's enquiries leaving you to continue to manage the day-to-day operations of your business with a minimum of fuss.

For buyers, it means that no matter where in Australia you're considering buying - whether it's where you presently live, or in another state, or in a smaller community for a 'sea change' lifestyle – our network can deliver.

Our associated Business Brokers are comprehensively trained not only in unique software but in every aspect of listing and selling businesses - from the legal aspects through to the most effective forms of marketing – so you’re assured of consistent and cost effective service as a buyer and as a seller.

The Best Way To Buy Or Sell A Country Business

A number of our associates are strategically located in regional centres, and their offices are owned and operated by people who've lived and worked for many years in the area they serve - in fact, many are former business owners – so they combine an unrivalled local knowledge with the power of a large buyer waiting list through the network.

It's access to this national network that makes Edensilk the wise choice for those seeking to buy or sell a business in regional Australia away from the capital cities and major conurbations. Our local contacts know the area, and have a key advantage over local competitors because they can also attract buyers from the national network's large database of waiting buyers.

We realise that buyers and sellers seek three important criteria - confidentiality, a fast transaction, and a fair and equitable price.

The system is designed to protect the seller's confidentiality.  All buyers must sign a deed of confidentiality prior to any details to help protect the business's details from reaching unauthorized people. This is especially important in the case of a small regional centre, where even the description of the business can sometimes reveal its identity.

Although there is a possibility of selling your business to people living in the immediate locality, a bigger opportunity exists to gain access to the larger pool of registered buyers residing in the capital cities. Our network has a growing number of registered buyers who wish to move away from the metropolitan area and buy a country business for lifestyle or semi-retirement reasons.
Because local brokers know their area well, they are better able to sell the business. You get the best of both worlds - local knowledge, local service and national buyer database.
