A buyer should not have to guess which machines, vehicles or tools are included. Tucson Business Brokers Office helps you begin a valuation inquiry with a practical view of the assets behind your earnings.
Create one list with clear ownership
Start with an asset register. Include a short description, location, acquisition date and condition. Mark whether the company owns, finances, leases or borrows each item.
Match major assets to invoices and finance documents. If equipment belongs to you personally or to another entity, identify it before describing the sale package.
- Purchase evidence and current finance or lease statements.
- Maintenance records and known repair needs.
- Items needed for current operations versus surplus assets.
- Software or controls that require separate transfer permission.
Connect the equipment to the work
Explain what the main assets allow the company to produce or service. Capacity that is never used is different from a machine that constrains current sales. Note dependencies such as one trained operator.
Do not add original purchase prices to an earnings valuation and assume that is the total business value. The transaction structure and valuation approach determine how assets are treated.
Separate records from a promise about price
A clean list supports the review. It does not establish market value or show that liens have been released. Ask your closing adviser how payoff and release evidence will be handled.
Keep serial numbers and finance account details out of this public form. Share detailed supporting material through the review process agreed with the valuation partner.
For shop questions read sell a precision machining business. Property ownership raises a separate issue in separate business value from building value before a sale.
If receivables and stock are significant, review distribution sale preparation. Request an assessment with a broad business summary.
