FAQ
Questions Buyers Ask Before Trusting a Report
Direct answers about what the service can establish, what it cannot, and where professional diligence still matters.
What does Business Buyer Check do?
It screens a business-for-sale opportunity by separating seller claims from calculated observations and public context, then identifies the records and questions needed for deeper due diligence.
Is the free QuickCheck a business valuation?
No. QuickCheck is preliminary research and decision support. It is not an appraisal, valuation opinion, audit, quality-of-earnings report, legal opinion, accounting review, or lending decision.
What does the confidence score mean?
Confidence describes how well a finding is supported by available inputs, source matching, data age, and geographic precision. It does not measure the probability that an acquisition will succeed.
Can public data verify the seller’s revenue or SDE?
No. Aggregate government data can provide market and location context, but company revenue and earnings require reconciliation to tax returns, financial statements, bank records, and supporting ledgers.
Do I need an account?
No account is required for the free QuickCheck. Paid products may request an email so a purchase and report can be delivered and recovered.
What should I enter if the listing hides the address?
Enter the most specific location you can support. County-level analysis is weaker when an address cannot be matched, and the report will show that limitation.
Does a strong score mean I should buy the business?
No. A score prioritizes investigation. Legal, tax, accounting, financing, operational, environmental, insurance, and industry-specific review may still be necessary.
