Enter your annual Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) — your net profit plus owner's salary and any personal expenses run through the business — to estimate a range.

Common Questions About Barbershops in Illinois
Business brokers in Illinois typically work on success-based commissions, meaning you pay nothing unless your business sells. Commission rates for main street businesses are typically 10–12% of the sale price. Larger middle-market transactions are negotiated individually.
The average business sale in Illinois takes 6–12 months from listing to closing. This varies by business type, asking price, buyer pool depth, and the state of financial documentation.
The first step is a confidential consultation where we review your financials and discuss your goals. From there, we provide a professional business valuation and walk you through the entire process before you commit to anything.
Business value is determined by a combination of your earnings (SDE or EBITDA), industry-specific valuation multiples, asset values, and market conditions. We provide professional valuations as part of our seller services.
Not without your permission. Confidentiality is a cornerstone of how we work. All prospective buyers sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before receiving any details about your business. Your team, customers, and suppliers remain unaware until you choose to disclose.
