Description: Andy and Jessica are very proudly welcoming you to another episode of The Deal Board Podcast. In today's episode, they are sharing with you the ultimate buyers' playbook for 2021. 2020 has left an incredible opportunity by the SBA incentives that have been allowing buyers to leverage themselves into deals, giving six months on principal and interest.
Listing of the week: Art Warsorff (Utah County) is selling a high-end restaurant takeout that was doing great pre-COVID-19. The owner created a special menu during COVID-19 that was particularly good for takeout and delivery, maintaining this way the relationship with customers, and keeping the business alive and blossoming. Asking price: $780,000 (the owner is willing to self-finance a portion of it). The business made $400,000 in 2019 and close to that also in 2020. Email Art at utahcounty@tworld.com or call (801) 557-6713.
