Deal Management Platform

Making business acquisitions, accessible!
team-vision

Why we exist

1

Buying a small business is incredibly complex and fragmented

2

Buyers are left cobbling together brokers, financing, advisors, and legal docs — with no clear system or roadmap

3

Building a small business requires making dozens of expensive decisions

4

Sellers are flooded with unqualified buyers and deal processes that stall or fall apart

5

It's friction-filled, slow, and opaque.

~90% of buyers who begin the acquisition journey, do not finish

With our Deal Management Platform, 70% of Village Wellth members acquire a business

The team at Village Wellth were pivotal in my first business acquisition. Throughout negotiations they offered invaluable real-world insights and guided me through complex and often emotional situations. Village Wellth bridges the gap that accountants, bankers, and lawyers cannot fill for business buyers and sellers.

Mat & Linen Services

Village Wellth is the reason why I found the business I bought. Without the help from their team, I wouldn't have purchased something so quickly. In an industry where people don't often make time for you, or like to keep their information close. Village Wellth always over-delivered on my expectations. It felt like they genuinely cared about finding the right fit for me. If you’re thinking about buying or selling, I’d definitely recommend them

FAQs

Village Wellth advisors negotiate with multiple banks and other lenders to create competitive tension, ensuring the most favourable terms for your acquisition.

You will meet with your advisor bi-weekly, though they are also available for questions outside of these sessions.

If your deal falls through, you are not charged a success fee. You can continue with the monthly subscription and receive all of the benefits of our search program as you continue to look for the right business.

The success fee is on a sliding scale relevant to the total transaction value of your deal. Speak to our team for more details.
