About the Company
Resource Business Brokerage was formed by Joan to fill a gap in the regional area of Wilmington to provide personalized service, education and consults to the small to medium business community. Buying or Selling can be a daunting undertaking that we know first hand about and in turn built our services around navigating the process for all parties involved.
For business buyers we can help with lease negotiations, lending option and area information if relocation is in the picture.
For business sellers we can help with property that is being sold along with the business, creating comps and market reports along with the business valuation needed to price the sale.
We are professional and have "resources" and knowledge to get any project to the closing table.
