a Compensation Structure
That Works for You

A vendor take back is a common part of business sales, but it should never be treated as one size fits all. As your exit
strategist, our role is to protect your interests and structure your deal in a way that benefits you. While most buyers
will request some form of deferred payment, we work to keep it minimal, secure, and designed around your priorities.

Protecting You from
Bad Offers

This Is Where Time Wasters Really Shine

When seller financing is on the table, unqualified buyers often show their true colors. Some ask for generous terms without substance. Others use the process to stall or negotiate without real intent. We recognize these patterns and cut them off early.

Our Vetting Process Filters Weak Buyers Before They Waste Time

We do not wait until late-stage negotiations to assess buyer credibility. Through our vetting process, we screen buyers before they make it to the offer stage. This keeps your time focused on serious conversations with serious parties.

We Know the Difference Between Serious Offers and Empty Promises

Many buyers ask for a vendor take back because their advisors suggest it. That does not mean it should be accepted without review. We help you assess each proposal clearly, identifying which terms protect you and which ones expose you to risk.

are Common but We Keep
them on Your Terms

Most Buyers Will Push for Some Level of
Seller Financing

In many cases, buyers want to reduce their risk by deferring part of the payment. This is common and often expected by their legal or financial advisors. That is why it is important to be prepared with a plan and boundaries.

The Buyer’s Lawyer Will Expect a Vendor Take Back

Your buyer will likely be told that a vendor take back is standard. We guide the conversation from your side, ensuring that if financing is included, it is limited and well defined. We structure terms that reduce your exposure and preserve your leverage.

Our Job Is to Minimize It and Keep You Protected

We work to contain the size of the vendor take back and ensure that any deferred amounts are paid under terms that are realistic and enforceable. Every detail is considered to support your financial outcome and avoid surprises after closing.

Upfront Payment Is Always the Priority

Getting paid at closing is your top priority. While a vendor take back may be included in the final deal structure, our first focus is maximizing the amount you receive on day one.

When Vendor Take Back Is Required, We Limit the Size and Scope

If deferred payment is necessary, we make sure it is proportional to the deal and structured with care. Our role is to help you preserve value and reduce reliance on future conditions.

Every Term Is Negotiated to Maximize Your Security

From interest rates to payment schedules, every aspect of the financing is reviewed and customized. We help you secure the arrangement so that repayment is clear, timely, and enforceable if needed.

We Control the Timeline, Security, and Payment Triggers

Seller financing must be structured intentionally. We help define clear milestones, payment schedules, and security measures to ensure the arrangement supports your position and avoids confusion.

No Loose Ends, No Blind Trust, Just Clear Terms

The deal should not rely on assumptions. We document all expectations in plain terms. Whether tied to performance, scheduled installments, or buyer obligations, everything is built to protect your interest.

We Structure the Deal to Benefit You, Not Just Get It Done

We do not accept vendor take back terms simply to close a deal. We review every component to ensure it supports your goals. You remain in control, and every financing detail is negotiated with purpose.
