Business Buyers Wanted in New York

Buyers in New York seeking a business through direct trade.

These are GoSwap members in New York who want to acquire a business through a direct trade rather than a cash purchase. They already own something of value (a vehicle, land, a business, or another property) and are looking for a business owner in New York (or willing to deal there) to trade with. If you operate a business here and have been weighing an exit, these acquirers bring assets instead of financing conditions.

Preparing your business for a trade

  • Organize 2–3 years of financials, tax returns, and bank statements
  • Inventory customer contracts, supplier terms, leases, and employee agreements
  • Confirm no undisclosed debts, liens, or litigation before fielding offers
Watch out: Verifying the acquirer’s asset with less rigor than they apply to your books. Get the deeds, titles, and appraisals before terms are agreed.

What it’s worth in a trade

Most small businesses trade on a multiple of seller’s discretionary earnings or EBITDA, adjusted for owner dependence and customer concentration. The acquirer’s asset gets its own appraisal, with a cash boot balancing the deal.
