A business broker is typically working with multiple buyers and sellers of businesses at one time, and communication can slip through the cracks. Buying a business can be a very long, tough process, and having the right business broker there to help feed you potential deals, offer guidance and insight into market conditions can be a great help.

If your broker is telling you that seller financing isn’t an option to buy an existing business that you like, I recommend you test that with the seller of the business personally.
