When Business Sale Proceeds Don’t Cover the Debt (What Happens Next?)

 


**New Video Alert!

In this episode, I walk through a very real scenario that buyers, sellers, and brokers are facing more often as parts of the economy slow down.

Imagine a business that once justified a higher valuation. 

Over time, revenues fall, earnings shrink, and the value declines — but the debt remains. 

On closing day, most of the purchase price must go toward paying off secured creditors. 

There may not be enough left to cover broker commissions, legal fees, or other transaction costs.

So what do you do? In this video, I explain.
