How it works

Six steps. Under six months.

No listing. No prep. No dressing it up. You sell it as it is, quietly, on your timeline.

1

One conversation

A relaxed, confidential call. You walk me through the business, and I tell you honestly what I see. No obligation, and it stays private.

2

A discreet visit

We meet in person and I tour the operation, discreetly. As far as your team knows, I'm a prospective client, a supplier, or an advisor. No one learns you're selling until you choose to tell them.

3

A confidential review

You share the financials, operations, and legal details, privately and under NDA, so I can prepare your valuation and offer. Diligence stays in-house. No outside parties poking around.

4

A fair offer

Based on the full picture, I make you a fair, straightforward offer, direct from the buyer. It often includes some seller financing to help it close.

5

Document the deal

Based on the agreed deal, your lawyer and mine finalize the purchase and sale agreement.

6

We close

Papers and terms arranged, and you're out. Quietly, and in less than 6 months.

Not a broker

The difference that matters

Most "sell your business" offers come from brokers who list you and wait. I'm the buyer.

A broker / listing

  • ✕ Your business listed on a for-sale site
  • ✕ Strangers walking through your business
  • ✕ A 6–12 month process with no certainty
  • ✕ Commissions and fees out of your pocket
  • ✕ A buyer who might still walk at the end

Lexbury Quick Exit

  • ✓ A real buyer with capital (me)
  • ✓ Your privacy, start to finish
  • ✓ No broker fees, no commissions
  • ✓ Less than 6 months to close
  • ✓ A fair price you can count on

Who you're dealing with

"I'd rather lose a deal because we weren't a fit than waste your time pretending we are."

I've spent my career buying and holding private businesses. I co-founded a $250 million private-equity firm built to buy and hold, not flip, and I've personally reviewed over 800 companies and bought 15. I'm not a broker or a consultant. I don't list businesses, charge fees, or march buyers through your shop. When you're ready to sell, I'm the buyer. You give up a shot at top-of-market, and in return you get speed, privacy, and a close you can count on.

  • Capital ready to close. The funds are in place. No bank approval to wait on, and no financing condition that falls apart at the eleventh hour.
  • Deals structured to get done. I have structured these transactions for years. I find terms that are fair to you and that actually close, including seller financing when it helps.
  • An operator who protects your legacy. I keep the team, the name, and what you built. I buy to hold for the long term, not to flip it or strip it for parts.
