Buying an Absentee Owner Business

Absentee-owner businesses are desirable for potential business buyers. Some are fully absentee-owned, and some of the owners work part-time but don’t necessarily need to be at the business. In some cases, the owner does the books or some other job that they like to do or feel the need to do. The attraction for buyers is that they can buy the business as an investment and still continue to do what they are doing full-time.

Sell an Absentee Owned Company

If you would like to sell an absentee-owned company, please contact us for a confidential consultation. There is no fee for our services until your company is sold, and we provide a confidential sales process. We have thousands of buyers for absentee-owned companies.
