I had a great experience working with Blue Ridge & specifically Amy Labarre! She was on top of everything and went out of her way to get things done as they popped up. I will definitely call Amy again for my next business transaction.
Thank you, Blue Ridge Brokerage for all your hard work in the selling of my business, Cabin Fever of Blowing Rock, Inc. You demonstrate professionalism and honesty, excellent service, dependability, and frequent communication between all parties. Your attention to details, as well as your knowledge of the current market, assisted in helping me understand what prospects were looking for in a business. Your marketing efforts brought several qualified prospects to meet with us and had two offers to consider. You provided the support and confidence needed for a smooth closing.
I am happy to recommend your services to anyone interested in buying or selling a business.
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.
Blue Ridge Brokerage charges no upfront fees. Our compensation is a success-based commission paid at closing, which means we only get paid when you do. This aligns our interests directly with yours — we are motivated to get you the best possible outcome.
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 dedicated offices and 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.
