Wayne and I appreciate all of your efforts in getting our business sold. We believe that you found a buyer that saw the potential in our business and has the vision to carry the business to greater heights. We enjoyed working with you and learned a great deal from you. You have definitely built a relationship with many business investors and know how to market a business to those clients. Prior to listing our business with you, we had listed our property for two years with other agencies. You immediately contacted viable clients and we received a contract within a couple of months. Thank you for helping to make our retirement a reality!

David Conrad of Blue Ridge Brokerage is patient, knowledgeable, kind and hard working. I first met David in 2008 when he listed and sold my eight store specialty retail chain. Even after all the Ts were crossed, David always checked in to be sure we were doing well. After a long time on the market, with David’s guidance, I finally sold road frontage acres close to a river. Now I can focus on my current business, children and home. Not only is David a good person, he knows Real Estate Sales and is not afraid of taking on the Tough Jobs. From hiking rural property lines to constantly scanning for the right buyer, David is the right agent for the job! He knows about the many pitfalls of commercial real estate sales and is always available to steer his clients in the right direction! Thanks for all the care and work over the last fifteen years! If I decide to sell commercially again, I know I can succeed with David representing me!

Frequently Asked Questions

A business broker acts as an intermediary between business buyers and sellers. At Blue Ridge Brokerage, we handle every stage of the transaction — from valuing your business and marketing it confidentially, to qualifying buyers, negotiating terms, and managing the process through to closing. Think of us as your advocate and guide throughout what is often the most significant financial transaction of your life.

The average business sale takes between six and twelve months from listing to closing, though this varies significantly depending on the size of the business, the industry, how well it is prepared for sale, and current market conditions. Businesses that are well-prepared with clean financials and a clear transition plan tend to sell faster and at stronger valuations.

Business valuation typically involves applying a multiple to the business’s Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE) or EBITDA, adjusted for factors like revenue trends, industry, customer concentration, owner dependency, and whether real estate is included. Blue Ridge Brokerage provides confidential business valuations for NC business owners — call (828) 265-2199 to get started.

We work with businesses across all industries with revenues between $500,000 and $15 million. Past transactions include restaurants, manufacturing companies, service businesses, retail operations, event venues, transportation companies, and commercial real estate. If you are unsure whether your business fits our criteria, call us — we are happy to have a no-obligation conversation.

We serve all of North Carolina with local brokers in Boone, Asheville, Greensboro, and Wilmington. Our reach extends across the High Country, the Triad, the Asheville and Charlotte metro areas, and the Cape Fear coast.
