A Clear Path From Inquiry to Handover
A structured five-step process designed to move qualified buyers efficiently from first contact to a completed, verifiable transfer.
Step-by-step process
Each step has a clear purpose and a clear next action. The process is designed to protect confidentiality while moving efficiently — most of the timeline depends on buyer readiness, not on us.
Initial inquiry
Same day
Send a short confidential inquiry with your acquisition objective and jurisdiction of interest. No documentation or commitment is required at this stage — this simply opens a private channel.
Buyer qualification & indicative pricing
Typically within 1–3 business days
We confirm fit and share indicative pricing, availability and next steps so you can make an informed decision early — before any paperwork.
NDA & documentation access
Promptly after NDA
Qualified buyers receive access to detailed documents promptly after signing the NDA, so you can verify the opportunity directly, including against the relevant public registry.
Transaction alignment
Buyer-paced
Both sides align on transaction structure, payment method and handover steps, so the closing is predictable with no surprises.
Transfer & handover
U.S. ~1–2 weeks · Canada ~5–10 business days
Ownership and corporate records transfer through a single coordinated handover, and the corporation stays in good standing throughout — no gap in its registrations or compliance obligations. Transfer and handover start once your payment is received. The whole process typically takes 1–2 weeks for a U.S. corporation and 5–10 business days for a Canadian corporation, including standard processing by registries and regulators; if a third party is late, the timeline moves accordingly.
Timing note
Timing is indicative and varies by opportunity. Much of the timeline depends on buyer readiness and alignment. Typical transfer times already include standard processing by registries and regulators; a delay on their side moves the timeline accordingly.
