Ken Kendes Email & Phone Number

I work with all types of businesses and their owners to educate them about an exit strategy and what to expect when selling their business. I help position their company so they can achieve the best results from a sale. My experience and expertise give business owners a clear plan of action so their business can be sold for its maximum value. Whether its retirement, security or a desire for more free time, each seller has a real need and I do my best to help them meet their objectives.I work with potential business buyers and aspiring entrepreneurs to assist them in finding the right business based upon the unique criteria of the buyer – investment comfort level, earning requirements, skill set, and life-style goals. I guide clients on research techniques to help ensure an informed decision when evaluating franchise and business ownership opportunities.I am intensely involved in each facet of every transaction, including the evaluation and pricing process, marketing activities, and discussions with potential buyers. To ensure a smooth transition of ownership, I help facilitate the contract negotiations, due diligence, preparation of all documents, and closing procedures.I represent both the resale of established businesses for sale as well as a prescreened inventory of franchisors in a wide range of industries.I like to say that “although I’m hired by the Seller, I represent the transaction.” In this way, I can assist both the buyer and the seller in the transaction to facilitate the best outcome for both parties.
