Acquirers at the table

Business buyers who bring assets, not term sheets

These acquirers want an operating business and hold real estate, land, and vehicles to trade for one. For an owner weighing an exit, that’s a buyer without a financing contingency.

These GoSwap listings are from people seeking to acquire a business through a direct trade. They have real estate, land, vehicles, or other assets they are willing to exchange for the right operation. If you are a business owner looking to exit without paying broker fees or waiting for a cash buyer, these motivated acquirers may have what you need in return.

Active buyers seeking businesses

Diligence runs both directions

The acquirer will scrutinize your books; give their asset the same treatment.

They’ll ask you for

  • · 2–3 years of financials, tax returns, and bank statements
  • · Customer contracts, leases, and employee agreements
  • · Confirmation of no undisclosed debts or litigation

You should ask them for

  • · Deeds, titles, or registrations proving ownership
  • · Independent appraisals of the offered asset
  • · An agreed valuation methodology, in writing, upfront

Structure — asset sale vs. equity sale, transition period, non-compete — gets decided with your attorney and CPA before anything is signed.
