Buying a company

Whether you are looking for one or more companies for sale as a financial investor or as a strategic buyer, finding the right business that fits your vision, and actually buying the business can be a lengthy process. This is facilitated by the site, which acts as an advertising platform with a wide range of services available, so that you could choose from as wide a range of companies as possible, under transparent conditions.

The site offers features optimized to buying and selling companies in order to provide efficient way to search among businesses, majority and minority shareholdings, and business lines for sale in Hungary, and to allow you to contact the sellers or the intermediaries (business brokers, transaction advisors) representing them.

Platforms for companies for sale

Within the site, there are two platforms available to companies for sale: Standard and Private.

The Standard platform is focused on smaller companies, while the Private platform offers an expanded service package, which is optimized primarily for larger companies.

Once you get interested in an ad and apply for it, you can expect the response from the following persons:

• On the Standard platform, depending on the advertiser: owner (seller) itself, intermediary acting on behalf of the seller, or the site itself in the case of advertisements where the site acts as a transaction advisor
• On the Private platform, from the site itself.

For the buyer side, the use of both the Standard and Private platforms is free of charge, unless, in the case of the Private platform, the advertiser chooses that the commission on a successful company sale is payable by the buyer, which is set out in the text of the ad.
