  • Seller open to terms

A note on terms.

Our cash number and our terms number are two different numbers. If the seller can't hit the cash number, ask about the second one, we can often pay more on terms. Send it anyway. We've closed deals that started as a "no."

Not Sure It Fits?

Send it anyway.

This buy box is a guide, not a wall. Some of my best deals didn't fit on paper. If you've got something motivated, creative, or just weird enough to be interesting, I'd rather see it and say "no" than miss it.

Submit a Deal

Quick form. I personally review every submission. Response within 24 hours.

Easier said than typed?

Just tell me about the deal.

Not every deal fits in a form. Press the button and walk me through it the way you would on the phone. I listen to all of it before I come back to you.

The more you tell me, the faster I can say yes or no. Things like:

Where is it, and what is it?

What are they asking, and why are they selling?

What is it going to need?

Tell Me

If it’s easier
Got it. I’ll listen today and get back to you myself.

Your recording comes to me and no one else. No pitch, no obligation.

Or Reach Out Directly

Let's talk.

The Other Thing I Do

Your business deserves its own front door.

You’re out here finding deals, which means you’re running a business, and people look you up before they work with you. Ninety minutes on the business you’ve built, and a written summary back within three days: what comes next, and in what order. $350, and it counts toward a website if you build within 30 days.
