Australia's first business buyers agency — acting solely for the buyer
There are thousands of business brokers in Australia — all acting for sellers. BBA stands alone, acting solely for business buyers.
Business brokers represent sellers. Their commission is linked to the sale price, so their duty — and their incentive — sits entirely with the vendor. The people carrying the most risk in any transaction, the buyers, were left to navigate alone.
BBA was established to fill that void: a dedicated agency acting solely for business buyers — searching, assessing and negotiating on their behalf. We are not a business brokerage and we do not sell businesses.
Be careful of look-alikes: some who advertise as “buyers agents” are in fact business brokers — a wolf in sheep’s clothing. A true buyers advocate takes no commissions, referral fees or payments from third parties. Our only fee comes from our client. That is why BBA can be trusted to always act in the business buyer’s best interest.
“As an accountant and seeing many business transactions over the years, it was evident there was a problem within the business sales industry.
Sellers had brokers to assist them with their business sale and the Buyers had no-one to assist them with their acquisition. In fact they were relying on the Business Broker for advice. The Brokers are getting paid by the seller and the higher the price, the greater the commission.
I was seeing Business Brokers taking advantage of this relationship of dependency – It was and still is a system that needs greater scrutiny but now BBA is there for the Business Buyer. An advocacy that can represent the buyer.
Having to go to an accountant or solicitor in the early days can be an expensive exercise, particularly if reviewing many businesses on the market.
BBA was established to represent the Business Buyer. To assist Buyers with their financial decisions to acquire a business and to represent their interests not the Sellers.
The team at BBA are working for the Business Buyer. Don’t let it be an emotional decision. We are in your corner from searching and assessing through to negotiations and settlement.”
No commissions, referral fees or third-party payments — ever.
Mandates, assessments and approaches handled discreetly.
Decisions built on verified numbers, not the sales pitch.
From first brief to settlement — one advocate throughout.
