Part A - PreQualified Business Appraisal Report
One of the biggest frustrations for business owners and brokers is negotiating a sale price with a buyer, only to find out later that the buyer can’t secure financing. At BizWorth, we solve that problem with our PreQualified Valuation Report, designed to ensure buyers are financially eligible before negotiations go too far. Prepared by a NACVA Certified Appraiser, this report includes a Loan Payment Affordability Analysis and a PreQualified Loan Eligibility Range, showing what buyers can actually finance based on the company’s EBITDA.
What makes us different is our upfront pricing—no hidden fees or hourly rates. Plus, you don’t just get a report without explanation. Our personalized service includes a Personalized Video Summary and a consultation with the appraiser to help you understand the findings.
With Expert Selected Valuation Methods, Hand-Picked Business Comparables, and Industry Benchmarking, the valuation is both thorough and conservative, meeting lender expectations. We also share the report with a national network of lenders, along with financials or tax returns, to secure conditional loan approval. This helps attract qualified buyers, speed up negotiations, and remove financing barriers for a smoother closing.

How to Prepare
To help our appraisal team complete your report efficiently, here’s some information that will be useful to gather along the way. Don’t worry if you don’t have everything upfront—we’ll guide you through the process in the Data Collection Portal:
3 Years of Financial Statements (or Tax Returns): You will choose to upload either financial statements (Profit & Loss Statement and Balance Sheet) or tax returns of the business for the last three full years. Tax returns are usually preferred if you are buying or selling a business; however, financial statements are usually preferred for strategic planning purposes. Consult with your advisor, lender, or CPA regarding their preference.
Year-to-Date Financial Statements: You will also be asked to upload a year-to-date financial statement through the valuation date. Be sure the year-to-date financials are through the same valuation date. It is preferred to use a month-end, quarter-end, or year-end date when possible.
Trailing 12 Months Profit &Loss Statement (optional): If your business is seasonal, then we highly recommend uploading a Trailing 12-Month Profit & Loss Statement. This will allow your valuation expert to better understand how to forecast revenue and expenses for the remaining months of the current year.
