Buying An Early Education Company - Mergers and Acquisitions

Are you tired of substandard due diligence packages?

We understand that every buyer has specific acquisition parameters, and every BFS^® client will not meet the specifications of every buyer. However, we represent every BFS^® client with 100% objective honesty so you will never waste your time with half-truth marketing. The BFS^® client portfolio (offering memorandum) is commonly acknowledged as the best portfolio anywhere in the industry. We are deliberate in providing you with the information necessary to make a careful and complete review before buying our clients' companies. Buyers who acquire BFS^® client companies get the fair bargain that every honest buyer deserves.

Over our 25+ year history many buyers have returned to buy multiple centers and schools from BFS^®. When asked why, the most popular answer is…because I get what I pay for… Born out of an investment banking career, we understand the need for an organized, verifiable due diligence portfolio. Valuations from the real estate to the business component to the FF&E (furniture, fixtures and equipment) are handled by the proper licensed professionals. The information provided by these professionals is included in the BFS^® portfolio made available to qualified buyers.

If you use debt financing, are you tired of working with financial institutions that don't understand how to evaluate or finance acquisitions in our industry?

Whether you have your own lender or not, the resources of BFS^® can help you ensure that you are getting the best financing terms available for your acquisition or other projects. Our team will have multiple banks compete for your loan. You can also have our banks compete with your bank. It’s normal for buyers to receive multiple offers from the banks. You choose the bank you like best.

Regarding your cash management, SBA loans routinely require as little as 10% down on acquisitions. If you would like more detailed information about financing, click here.
