Buyer Mandates

Boston Brokers · On Active Search

A handful of buyers
have asked us to find
them something.

These are the briefs we're working on right now. Quietly, in the background, on retainer. If your business looks like one of them, we should talk — we may already have a buyer.

6 active mandates Updated weekly All buyers verified by Boston

We don't keep a generic buyer list. We keep a small, retained mandate book — buyers who have signed an engagement, agreed a brief, and committed capital. That's a different conversation to most.

For Business Owners

Your business may
already be on our list.

If anything above looks like the business you've built, the easiest path to a confidential conversation is to put a few details on this form. Nathan or one of the senior brokers will read it personally and come back within one business day.

  • Confidential. Nothing is published, nothing is forwarded.
  • No NDA required for the first conversation.
  • If we don't have a fit, we'll say so.
