For wealth advisors & financial planners in San Antonio and Austin

Your client's largest asset is not in the portfolio yet.

For a business owner, the company is commonly 60 to 90 percent of net worth and produces nothing under management until it is sold. Every retirement projection you run for that household rests on a value nobody has tested against the market.

Alamo Brokers of Texas · Business and property sales since 2002 · San Antonio (HQ), South Central Texas

Our standing offer to you

A complimentary Broker Opinion of Value for any client you send us.

No fee. No obligation to list. No engagement letter. Send us an owner who is thinking about selling and wants to know what their company is actually worth, and we prepare it at no charge — a real number instead of a rule of thumb, with you still the trusted advisor in the conversation that follows.

We ask for a short intake first, so the number we produce is worth the paper it is on. Businesses under $100,000 in Seller’s Discretionary Earnings, and businesses with less than five years of documented history, are more difficult to sell and to obtain third-party financing for, and we will tell you that early rather than late.

You make the introduction, and you stay on every conversation from there. We copy you on what we send your client and on what comes back. Nothing about the relationship happens around you.

And no referral fee — in either direction. We do not pay them and we do not ask you to accept one. You are compensated by the client work the deal creates on both sides of it.

What this is worth to your practice

  1. 01

    The plan is built on an untested number.

    Owners routinely carry a value in their head that is either well above or well below what a buyer would pay. A Broker Opinion of Value replaces it with a defensible figure, which changes the savings rate, the retirement date and the risk budget you are recommending today.

  2. 02

    The business sale is the AUM event.

    One closing can move more into managed assets than years of contributions. Being the advisor who helped the client understand the value years before the sale is how that account arrives at your firm instead of somewhere else.

  3. 03

    Pre-liquidity planning has to start before the letter of intent.

    Charitable vehicles, trust funding, installment structures and concentration management need lead time. Once the LOI is signed, most of the useful planning window has already closed.

  4. 04

    Concentration risk is the whole conversation.

    A household with nearly everything in one privately held, industry-specific, geographically fixed asset has a risk profile no allocation model on the liquid side can offset. Quantifying it starts with knowing what the asset is worth.

  5. 05

    The exit is also a household transition.

    Owners underestimate the identity and cash-flow shift that follows a closing. Advisors who prepare the client for life after the business keep the relationship well past the liquidity event.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Tell us the basics.

    A short form: your details, the client's industry, rough revenue, why your client is thinking about an exit, and roughly when. Under a minute. Nothing is shared with your client at this stage.

  2. Step 2

    We send the intake questionnaire.

    If the business is a fit for what we sell, we ask you to introduce us to the owner so we can discuss their situation and prepare a questionnaire for the valuation work. We keep you in the loop every step of the way.

  3. Step 3

    We prepare the Opinion of Value.

    At no cost to your client, under confidentiality, once the questionnaire is back and the call has happened. A real number with the reasoning behind it, not a rule of thumb.

  4. Step 4

    You stay in the file.

    If the owner moves forward, you are on the deal team from letter of intent through closing, where the structure and the tax outcome get decided.

Also free to your clients, any time: our Roadmap to Success guide to selling a business, and a sample Confidential Business Review — the buyer-facing document we produce for every listing.

Questions advisors ask

Do you pay referral fees to advisors?
No, in either direction. We do not pay them and we do not ask you to accept one. You are compensated by the client work the sale creates.
Will the client be pushed to list?
No. There is no engagement letter and no obligation to list. Many owners take the Opinion of Value and do nothing for several years, which is a perfectly good outcome.
How long before a sale should we start?
Three to five years is ideal for exit readiness work. Twelve months is roughly the span from listing to closing once the business goes to market.
What size businesses do you work with?
Our transaction focus is the $1 to $10 million range in Texas, primarily San Antonio, Austin, the Hill Country and South Central Texas.
