Business sales in the heart of the Central Valley
Fresno is the seat of Fresno County and the largest city in the San Joaquin Valley. Highway 99 runs through the middle of it, and the county around it is one of the most productive farm regions in the country. Fresno's economy rests on agriculture, healthcare, education and the traffic along 99, and it supports many family-owned businesses: gas stations and travel stops, liquor and convenience stores, franchises, restaurants and service companies.
Team Singh serves Fresno County as part of our 27-county Northern and Central California service area. We work with owners in Fresno, Clovis and the surrounding towns, and we come to you.
We start by listening
Selling a business is personal. Some owners are ready now. Others are planning a few years out, or just want to know what the business is worth. We want to be helpful at every stage, with honest numbers, a clear plan and no pressure. Ready to talk? Request a confidential conversation.
What to expect when you sell
• Confidentiality first. We market the business without naming it. Buyers are screened and sign an NDA before they see financials.
• Preparation. About 2–4 weeks to organize your P&Ls, tax returns, equipment list and lease, and to agree on a price that will attract qualified buyers.
• Marketing. Usually 2–3 months, depending on pricing.
• SBA financing. Most business buyers use SBA loans. We work with the lender and escrow, and escrow usually takes 60–90 days, though it can vary.
• Gas stations and liquor stores. Fuel agreements, environmental reports and ABC license transfers add steps, so plan on about 3–6 months. See our gas station and liquor store sales page.
Real estate and leasing
Many Fresno business owners also own the building. We can sell the business and real estate together, sell the business with a new lease, or help you lease space to a new operator. We also represent tenants and landlords in commercial leasing.
