We are seeking highly motivated, creative individuals looking to train as business brokers. A business broker is a professional who assists in the buying and selling of businesses, helping to connect buyers and sellers while also acting as an intermediary throughout the process.

Frequently Asked Questions 

• Do I need a License?
  State of Texas does not require a real estate license in business only transaction, but since real estate is included in sale of businesses many times, each business broker should obtain a real estate license.  Many of our new Business Brokers start with us and get their training & orientation while they get their real estate license.

While the range of compensation varies greatly, the best Brokers in the industry earn over $500,000 per year. A good broker can comfortably earn a good six figure income if they are diligent and hard working.
• How many Business Brokers are there?
  There is a common misconception that there are a lot more business brokers today than ever before or that the United States is saturated with them.  Neither is true.  In fact, the number of business brokers has remained fairly static over the years.
