We turn your life's work into a lasting legacy.

Legacy Handoff is a business brokerage firm that helps business owners sell their companies. We guide sellers through valuation, marketing, and negotiations to ensure a smooth handoff of their legacy, with a focus on maximizing value and maintaining confidentiality.

Unlike many brokers, we don't believe in getting paid for listing, only for closing. There are no upfront fees. We're paid a commission on the final sale price at closing, the same way a real estate transaction works. Many brokers charge a retainer or bill hourly before anything closes. We don't. Our commission is competitive and tailored to the size and complexity of the deal. We don't charge more than our competitors; we just do a better job.

Small to mid-size businesses across a wide range of industries: home services, franchises, medical and dental practices, construction, manufacturing, e-commerce, professional services, and more. Whether you own a service company, a subscription business, or a traditional retail operation, if it has real revenue and real operations behind it, we should talk.

It varies with industry, size, financial health, and asking price. We've had deals close as soon as 45 days after the listing agreement was signed, but we tell owners to expect six to twelve months. Businesses with clean books, clean operations, a desirable industry, and growth go faster than businesses that are shrinking or in a less desirable industry.

Absolutely. Confidentiality is a top priority. We market your business without revealing its name or location, and buyers sign a non-disclosure agreement before they see anything sensitive. Your employees, customers, and competitors won't know unless you decide to tell them.

We leverage our network of pre-qualified buyers, including investors and operators actively looking for acquisitions, and we advertise your business locally and nationally on the major marketplaces. Everything goes out in a generic, confidential form that doesn't reveal who you are.

We've bought, built, and sold businesses ourselves, so we know how it works from both sides of the table. We offer free valuations, no upfront fees, and a personal process designed to honor your hard work while securing the best possible outcome. And you work directly with our team, not an associate you've never met.

You could sell it yourself, but you'd be learning the process for the first time while running your company. We bring market knowledge, a buyer network, and negotiation experience, keep the process confidential, and handle the legal and financial steps so the deal doesn't die in due diligence. That raises your odds of the best possible outcome while you stay focused on the business.

We look at what similar businesses actually sold for, current market conditions, and your own financial performance: revenue, profit margins, and assets. We also weigh growth potential, industry trends, and anything unique about your business that adds value. The goal is a price you can defend at the negotiating table.

Utah is home, and we're licensed here. We also help owners sell businesses in Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, and New Mexico, where a real estate license is only needed when property is part of the deal. If your sale includes real estate in one of those states, we bring in a licensed local professional for that piece.
