What do I need to know about selling a business?

There are many important considerations when selling a business. Price is important, but the terms of the sale can be just as important, if not more.

A correctly prepared business sale contract will ensure that the rights and obligations of each party are clearly stated, including what will happen if someone breaches their obligations.

Business sale contracts can be simple or incredibly complex with earnout arrangements, seller financing, conditions of settlement.
