302 – Debt Traps of Buying a Business

If you're thinking of buying a small business, this podcast is for you. Over the years, we've had a lot of clients who decided to buy a business either because they were frustrated with working for someone else and they wanted to go out on their own, or maybe the owner of their company wanted to retire. While there are benefits to small business ownership, how do you avoid the debt traps? How can you make the most of your purchase and avoid undervaluing your own contributions? And what does owning or selling a small business look like now in COVID-19? On today's show David Barnett, a business broker and adviser, shares practical advice to help you think through the costs of purchasing a business and provides insight into how transactions are doing amid the pandemic.
