The Seller Experience
What changes when you choose Lighthouse.
Most owners dread selling because they've heard the horror stories — years on market, tire-kicker buyers, confidentiality blown, and a broker collecting 10% for the privilege. We built a different model.
| Aspect | Traditional Brokers | Lighthouse Capital Group |
|---|---|---|
| Your first week | Paperwork, NDAs, "let's list it and see" | Confidential valuation and guaranteed price range |
| Buyer quality | Whoever clicks the listing | Pre-vetted operators with committed capital |
| Your employees find out | When it hits BizBuySell | Never — fully off-market, always |
| If the deal stalls | You wait. And wait. | We cover advisory costs if we miss our timeline |
| What you pay | 8–12% of your life's work | Flat fee — aligned with your outcome, not against it |
| After closing | Radio silence | Transition support and buyer introduction managed |
Your 75-Day Journey
Three milestones. Zero ambiguity.
No complexities, no "maybe." We manage diligence, negotiations, and transitions — full stop. Here's exactly what happens and when.
Valuation & Guaranteed Offer
We conduct a confidential valuation based on financials, market comps, and real buyer interest. You receive a guaranteed price within two weeks — no cost, no obligation.
Signed LOI with Aligned Buyer
We match you with a pre-vetted buyer, negotiate favorable terms, and deliver a signed Letter of Intent. You stay in control of timeline, terms, and transition expectations.
Keys Handed Over, Proceeds Wired
We manage due diligence (legal, financial, operational), finalize closing documents, and coordinate the transition. Proceeds wired, clean handoff.
The Lighthouse Guarantee
Promises you can hold us to.
We don't ask you to take our word for it. Our guarantee structure puts our fees behind our commitments — so your risk stays near zero.
Price Protection
Your offer is locked based on real, vetted buyer interest — not hypothetical valuations or inflated promises. The price you see is the price you get, backed by committed capital.
Speed Promise
If we don't deliver a signed LOI within 45 days and close within 75, we cover our advisory costs. Our timeline commitment has teeth — because yours should too.
Complete Confidentiality
Your business is never listed publicly. Every conversation, document, and buyer introduction happens off-market with full discretion. Employees, customers, and competitors never know.
Seller Stories
68 days. Full ask. Life changed.
Our sellers don't just close faster — they close on their terms. No drawn-out negotiations, no lowball offers, no uncertainty. Just a clear path from valuation to proceeds.
Brokers wasted a year of my time with unqualified lookers. LCG brought me a real buyer, closed in 68 days at full ask. Life-changing.Tom K.Professional Services Founder

Quick Valuation Estimator
Enter your annual revenue and EBITDA for an estimated enterprise value range.
With a traditional broker, 11+ months and only a 30% success rate. At LCG, sellers receive a guaranteed offer within weeks, LOI within 45 days, and close within 75 days — with 90%+ success.
Traditional brokers charge 8–12% of sale proceeds with multi-year exclusive contracts. LCG uses a flat, transparent fee — no percentage cuts, no long-term lock-in, exit anytime.
We commit to a firm purchase offer based on real, vetted buyer interest within two weeks. This includes price protection (locked offer), a speed promise (or we cover advisory costs), and complete off-market confidentiality.
Professional services businesses are typically valued at 3–6x EBITDA depending on size, growth, recurring revenue, and customer concentration. Our free valuation goes beyond multiples — we assess market position, buyer demand, and comparable transactions.
You can, but most owners face longer timelines, lower prices, and higher failure rates. LCG offers a broker alternative: advisory-level support, flat fees, pre-vetted buyers, and a structured 75-day process without the traditional downsides.
