Asheville Business Brokers
Serving Buncombe County, NC
In 1994 I purchased Brevard Business Brokers in Cocoa Beach, Florida. I later obtained the name Florida Business brokers & opened other Business Brokerages in Florida. Again, I opened Business Broker Offices in Maine and North Carolina and changed the Name to American Investment Brokers. Now, 28 years later, Living in the Asheville Area of North Carolina, I changed the Business Name to Asheville Business Brokers, serving the Western North Carolina Area. I still enjoy helping people sell or buy businesses. Contact me for a confidential conversation. Thanks, Rick Maerkle

FAQs
How much does it cost to buy a restaurant in North Carolina?

How are restaurants in North Carolina valued?
Most business owners (and buyers) will start by applying earnings and revenue multiples to the businesses reported financials. This way buyers and sellers can gauge the value of a restaurant business relative to its peers in the market.
Based on our most recent analysis of North Carolina restaurant business listings, revenue multiples range from 0.28 to 0.65, with the median at 0.43. Earnings multiples range from 1.97 to 3.33, with the median at 2.50. This means restaurants in North Carolina are valued, on average, around 0.43 times annual revenue, and/or 2.5 times annual owner earnings.
On average, businesses sell for about 80-90% of asking price, so valuation multiples based on active listings tend to be higher than closed sale multiples.
