How long will it take to sell a business? 

It generally takes, on average, between four to six months to sell most businesses. Keep in mind that an average is just that. Some businesses will take longer to sell, while others will sell in a shorter period of time. The sooner we have all the information needed to begin the marketing process, the shorter the time period should be.H It is also important that the business be priced properly right from the start. Some sellers, operating under the premise that they can always come down in price, overprice the business. This theory often “backfires,” because buyers will often refuse to look at an overpriced business.
 
It has been shown that the amount of the down payment may be the key ingredient to a quick sale. The lower the down payment, generally 40 percent of the asking price or less, the shorter the time it usually takes to a successful sale. A reasonable down payment also tells a potential buyer that the seller has confid
ence in the business’s ability to make the payments.
