If you thought reaching an agreement on price was difficult, wait until you get to the fine details of buying or selling a business.
You are looking to buy a small business. You see something you are interested in: right industry, right location but is it the right price? In today's market everyone is looking for a bargain. The difficulty in assessing the price of a small business is that there may not be a lot of ready comparisons available in the market. If you are looking to buy a business where there is a large and active market - like a newsagency, pharmacy or coffee lounge - then comparisons will be available. And, there are industry models that typically set the pricing for these types of business. However, if you are looking at a more unique business where there is not a lot of public information, the going can get tougher.
