How much does it cost to use Exit Clue as my business broker?

Zero upfront fees. We work on a success-based commission of 5–10% of the final sale price (with a $15,000 minimum) — paid only at closing.

How long does it take to sell a business in San Diego?

Most San Diego business sales close in 3–9 months from listing. Clean financials, realistic pricing, and SBA pre-qualification can shorten the timeline significantly.

How do you keep the sale of my business confidential?

We use blind listings (no business name, no exact address), require NDAs from every prospective buyer, and only release identifying details after pre-qualification.

What size businesses do you broker?

Exit Clue specializes in San Diego businesses with $500K–$10M in annual revenue and at least $50K+ in EBITDA — the lower-middle market sweet spot for individual buyers and small private equity.

Will my business qualify for SBA financing?

Most profitable businesses with 3+ years of clean tax returns qualify for SBA 7(a) loans. We pre-qualify your business before listing so buyers can move fast.

Do you offer free business valuations?

Yes. We provide a no-obligation valuation based on your financials, industry-specific multiples, and current San Diego market conditions — free and confidential.

Can I sell while keeping my real estate?

Yes — most physician-owned real estate is leased back to the buyer at fair-market rent for 10+ years. This often becomes a meaningful retirement income stream.

How long does diligence take for a medical sale?

Typical diligence is 60–120 days. Coding audits, payor contract review, and credentialing transfers drive most of that timeline.

How long will my sale take?

Most San Diego deals close in 3–9 months from listing. Clean books, realistic pricing, and SBA pre-qualification can compress that window.
