Business and Property Sales in Taylor, TX
If you own the business and the building it runs from, you have more choices at sale time. We value each part on its own and show you your options. Then we find buyers who can close on the whole deal, quietly.
One sale, two assets
A business and the real estate under it are worth different things to different buyers. The business is priced on its earnings. The building is priced like any commercial property. Lump them together without thinking it through and one side usually gets undersold.
We start by pulling the two apart. Then we look at the paths open to you: sell both to one buyer, sell the business and lease the building to the new owner, or sell the business now and the property later. Each path changes your taxes, your monthly income and how many buyers can afford the deal.
A building that has been kept up is easier to sell. A clean roof report, a working HVAC system and current records tell a buyer and their lender that the business behind them has been looked after too. We help you put that care on paper so it shows up in the price.
What we handle in a business and property sale
- 01
Separate valuations
We value the business on its cash flow and give you a clear read on what the real estate is likely worth. You see both numbers before any listing goes out.
- 02
Sell or lease advice
Some owners want a clean exit. Others want rent checks for years. We lay out what each choice means for your income, your risk and your buyer pool.
- 03
Property records in order
We gather the deed, survey, tax statements, service records and any past inspection reports. Buyers and lenders ask for these early, and missing paperwork stalls deals.
- 04
Confidential marketing
Your listing goes out without your name or address. Buyers sign a confidentiality agreement before they learn which business it is. New listings go to registered buyers first.
- 05
Lender coordination
Loans that cover both a business and its building take an appraisal and more lender review. We keep the buyer, the lender and the title company moving on the same timeline.
- 06
Lease drafting support
If you keep the property, the new lease needs fair terms on rent, length and who maintains what. We help you set terms a buyer and their lender will accept.

Call(512) 920-5626Signs this is the right service for you
You own the building outright or close to it
Real estate with little or no debt gives you room to sell, lease or carry part of the financing yourself.
Buyers keep asking about the lease
If you rent to your own business on a handshake, buyers get nervous. That needs a real lease or a sale plan before you list.
You want income after you step away
Leasing the building to the new owner can turn a one-time sale into steady monthly rent.
The property needs work you have put off
A worn roof or old equipment will come up in the buyer's inspection. Better to know now and decide whether to fix it or price it in.
Your business depends on its location
A shop on a busy corner in Taylor or a site with special zoning is hard to move. Selling the business and building together keeps that value with the deal.
How the sale moves from start to close
- 1
A confidential first talk
Come by the office or talk it over on a phone or video call, whichever suits you. Walk us through what you own, what is still owed and what you hope to walk away with. None of it leaves the room.
- 2
Value both pieces
We study your financials and the property. You get a valuation of the business and a working figure for the real estate, with the reasons behind each.
- 3
Pick the structure
Sell together, sell and lease back, or sell in stages. We compare them side by side so you choose with real numbers in front of you.
- 4
Market and screen buyers
We list the deal without naming you and check that each buyer has the cash and financing to close on both the business and the property.
- 5
Due diligence and closing
The buyer inspects, the lender orders its appraisal and the title company does its work. We track every deadline until the keys and the books change hands.
What affects the cost of selling
Listing with us costs you nothing up front. There is no retainer to sign, and nothing is tucked into the fine print. Our fee comes out of the sale, so we are paid only once you are. What changes the size of the job is how much work the deal takes.
- Sale structure
- Selling both to one buyer is simpler than splitting the sale or setting up a lease. More pieces mean more documents and more parties.
- Condition of the property
- Deferred upkeep, open code issues or an old roof can lead to price talks or extra inspections. A well-kept building moves faster.
- Environmental history
- Sites that once held fuel tanks, auto work or dry cleaning may need an environmental report before a lender will fund.
- Records and books
- Clean financial statements and property records shorten due diligence. Gaps take time to fill and can cost you buyers.
Questions about selling a business with its property
Is it smarter to hold on to my building and rent it to whoever buys the business?
That comes down to what you want your life to look like after closing. Selling everything pays you in one lump and ends your role for good. Holding the property brings in monthly rent, but you are still the landlord when the roof leaks or a tenant leaves. We run both paths with your real figures so the trade-off is plain.
Can a buyer finance the business and the building in one loan?
Often, yes. Some lenders, including SBA-backed programs, will fund both in one package. The property will need an appraisal, and the buyer usually needs a larger down payment on the real estate part.
Does owning the property make my business worth more?
Not on its own. The business is valued on its earnings, and the property is valued as real estate. Owning both does widen your options and can make the deal easier to finance.
Will employees and customers find out I am selling?
Not from us. Listings never name your business, and buyers sign a confidentiality agreement before they get details. Property showings can be set up after hours.
Have you sold businesses before?
Yes. We have sold over $5 million in businesses, and we bring that experience to deals that include real estate.
Do you work with owners outside Taylor?
Yes. Sellers in Hutto, Round Rock, Georgetown, Elgin and nearby communities work with us too. Most early conversations happen over the phone or on video, and you are welcome to stop by the office whenever a face-to-face meeting helps.
Get both numbers before you decide
A free consultation is the place to begin. Tell us about the building and the business, and we will lay out the ways you could sell them. It costs nothing, and there is no pressure to list.
