Manny Fernandez started HomeBuyingCenter.com in 2007, just as the real estate market started to wobble in the United States. As it turned out, his timing was perfect as his site helped underwater homeowners unload their real estate.

In fact, Fernandez was generating so many opportunities for one real estate brokerage that he received an unsolicited offer from them to purchase his business. He took their offer and parlayed it into a competing offer that helped provide the competitive tension to get a deal done—proving once again that it often takes two offers to maximize the value of your business.

Getting bogged down?

Fernandez decided to sell because he was feeling overwhelmed with all of the details associated with running his company. If you’re feeling besieged, selling may be the answer, but you may benefit from first tweaking your business model to make your company less dependent on you personally. That’s what we do in the second step of our 12-step process for helping owners improve the value of their business. Complete step one by getting your Value Builder Score.
