Victory Business Brokers
Serving Madison County, NY
With over 35 years of experience in the Real Estate World as an agent, trainer, relocation specialist, Principal Broker, and involved in numerous subdivisions and new construction projects, I recognized one thing missing in selling a business: Confidentiality. Think of an open restaurant with a BIG "For Sale" sign in the front- revenues have nowhere to go but down. Our expertise in commercial real estate and Business sales allows me to market your business while maintaining confidentiality, vetting buyers, and handling the entire transaction. I specialize in the evaluation sale of commercial properties, land, and entities, including healthcare facilities and related businesses, service industries, insurance firms, private schools, daycare centers, manufacturing companies, event venues, as well as building and construction enterprises. Have you considered selling your? You have time and effort, built meaningful relationships, and contributed to people's lives and communities. Selling your business can provide an opportunity to start the next chapter of your life—whether that involves retirement, purchasing another business, or pursuing other endeavors.
