Frequently asked questions
We cover 100% of all escrow fees. We want you to feel safe and secure when selling on Hillcrest, so we’ve partnered with Escrow.com to protect you and the buyer from fraud.
The timeline varies, but most businesses sell within 3-6 months. Factors affecting the timeline include your asking price, industry, financials, and overall business health.
You'll need basic business information, any financial statements, and details about your operations and assets. The more you provide, the better we can help you attract buyers.
We let you set the asking price, whatever you think your business is worth. Buyers can then make offers below or above that price. We recommend doing some research on similar businesses in your industry to set a competitive price.
We charge a success fee of 2-3% when your business sells. Most of which, about 90%, goes towards paying the escrow fees for the buyer at closing. There are no upfront fees or monthly charges. We also cover all escrow fees to make the process smoother.
