Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to sell a business in Alpharetta?
Most Alpharetta businesses sell within 5 to 8 months. The city's strong economy and concentration of high-income professionals create robust buyer demand, particularly for service-based businesses, medical practices, and professional services that serve the local tech workforce.
What's my Alpharetta business worth?
Alpharetta businesses often command premium multiples due to the city's high median income and strong consumer spending. Values are calculated using Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) multiplied by an industry-specific multiple, typically 2x to 4x. The tech corridor presence and affluent demographics can push multiples higher. Use our free calculator above for an instant estimate.
Will my employees find out I'm selling?
Confidentiality is our top priority. We use blind listings that describe your business without revealing its identity, require signed NDAs from all prospective buyers, and carefully screen every inquiry before sharing any details. Your employees, customers, and competitors will not learn about the sale until you decide the time is right.
What does a business broker charge?
Most business brokers work on a success-fee basis — typically around 10–12% of the final sale price. You pay nothing upfront and nothing if the business doesn't sell. The fee is earned only at closing and comes out of the sale proceeds. Broker-assisted sales consistently close at higher prices, more than covering the commission.
Do I need a broker to sell my business in Alpharetta?
While you can sell on your own, businesses listed with brokers sell for 15–20% more on average and close significantly faster. In a market like Alpharetta, a broker brings access to a national buyer network, handles confidential marketing, manages negotiations, and coordinates due diligence — all while you keep running your business.
