Buy a Business with IBA

IBA is not the only venue to look for businesses for sale in the Pacific Northwest. However, based on the quality businesses we represent for sale, the comprehensive information provided buyers, our market leading knowledge, and superior customer service; we are one of the most buyer friendly environments to evaluate acquisition and merger opportunities in Washington, Oregon, and Alaska.

95% or more of IBA’s client engagements annually are “sell side” where the firm is paid upon performance when the transaction is completed. This business model benefits buyers because it creates a “risk free” environment for evaluation of companies for potential acquisition facilitated by professional intermediaries motivated to find a pathway to “yes” that emphasizes ethical and best professional practices with a vested interest for bringing to market vetted, properly priced businesses.

The opportunity to review businesses represented by IBA for sale on an ongoing basis requires the completion of several administrative steps by potential business buyers. These steps can be completed online, in person, or by email, or mail.

Buy a Franchise

Business brokerage firms cannot order inventory. It is common for motivated, qualified buyers to be unable to find businesses to purchase in their desired geographic location, industry, and/or price point. The purchase of a franchise from an experienced, knowledgeable franchise broker allows for the acquisition of the rights to operate a business model in the location and industry of preference. IBA’s franchise sale division is staffed with some of the best franchise brokers in the United States. These brokers are paid by the franchisors for finding buyers, so there is no cost associated with engaging with them. A buyer can simultaneously evaluate business and franchise acquisition opportunities with IBA.

Testimonials

What our Clients are Saying

    We recently worked with Oliver Kotelnikov of IBA to sell our 20+ year restaurant. Oliver’s experience, knowledge of the industry, and his steady guidance throughout the entire process facilitated a successful transaction for all parties involved. His attention to detail and ability to lead the process gave us confidence at every step. We would definitely recommend his services to anyone looking to buy or sell a business in the hospitality industry.

    I had the good fortune of working with Sally Bergesen of IBA in selling my plant maintenance company. Not only was she always available, guiding me through the process, but she brought multiple solid buyers to the table and we ended up selling for 10% over the asking price! I feel very grateful for our partnership and the outcome. I highly recommend Sally Bergesen when you are ready to sell your business.

    Perla W.

    We collaborated with Seth on a smaller, complex acquisition that ultimately went very well. He proved to be professional, responsive, and solution-oriented throughout the entire process, which made the transaction smooth and efficient. All information was fully disclosed, and we are more than happy to work with him on future deals.

    As a first-time business buyer, I cannot recommend IBA NW enough. It has now been five years since I acquired my business through them, and it is thriving—a true testament to the quality of the listings they represent. Unlike other brokers who might push any deal to close a sale, IBA clearly vets their opportunities for long-term viability. If you are looking to buy or sell a business and want a partner who values integrity and quality, IBA is the firm to trust
