I looked at all of it real closely in the end run the location is iffy...on a small cul-de-sac with 12 other houses, ALL 12 of them are boarding kennels, a new 45 unit housing development being built right behind the kennels, some potential zoning changes, and I would of had to come up with 10% of the money, they were only willing to finance 90%...It just didn't look like a good scenario for me. Plus Robert really isn't on board. I have looked at many others out of CA but he always hates the location or has some other complaint. He told me to look for j-o-b in a kennel so I can at least be doing what I love. I will but working in one isn't quite the same as owning it. I found one just outside Charlotte, NC and one outside Baltimore that would of been perfect, both much more reasonably priced, much larger, with seller financing, but he looked at me like I was Janet from another planet when I told him where they were. Such is life

Do you know what the business itself it worth? ...A property is only worth what a buyer will buy it for. I would sit down with Robert and figure out the value of the business and include a value for the home, and then submit that offer to the sellers. I would approach them without a Realtor, and sit down and explain your offer to them. I can't imagine that if they need or want to sell, that many people are banging down their door. After you submit the offer, tell them that you will continue to follow up with them. I think you might be surprised at what people go for once the get real.
